Gray and green and red
As the outside gets grayer by the day the insides make up with fresh cut evergreens, sparkling decorations, the glow of the fire and festive dresses.

It's as if we make up for the loss of colors outdoors. We bring out the silver and gold, blues and greens, red ribbons and plaids, tartans and pillows.
I found inspiration in my own house and garden, at Anthropologie and One Kings Lane, pages of UK Elle Decoration, one of my favorite bloggers mixed in and voila, you have something to see...
I can so see myself cozied up in this gorgeous blanket, all wrapped up, reading or watching that movie, I have been waiting for...
This dress is just right to be worn sitting in my winter room....
or this...
And finding the last dried blossoms in the garden
I imagine all these as well...
Some color still outside...
and some found here...
here...
...and here:
Let there be silver...
and gold...
Orange...
...and more green!
Our tree is still waiting until tomorrow to get to it's place of honor! You will see!
Have fun finding your colors of the season, inside and out!
