Bright Lights! ☀

Hello Summer! It's everyone's favorite season once again. :) The past weeks have been extremely colorful in my work area as I prepare my new posts for Kitty & Bee's Spring/Summer 2012 line. I'm just about to shoot the new stuff this weekend so I'm a few days late in posting but I promise you girls that my new pieces are scorching hot hot hot! ☀ 


In the meantime, here's a little inspiration. Notice how NEON & PASTELS are all over the runways and fashion shows lately? Perhaps it's time to electrify your closet because this trend won't seem to fade out anytime soon. :) Summer just got more playful & whimsical + light & breezy! 

• Pair pastels with more pastels! 
• If you're going head to toe in a neon dress, keep accessories quiet. Or vice versa. -Accessorize brightly over a black tank & denim jeans!
• Create a balancing act. Make neutrals come to life with  little splashes of bright hues. - Mixing fluorescent yellow with grey.
• Wear neon lippie or nail polish if the thought of neon clothing rouses awful childhood memories. :) There are purses and shoes too! 

Oh and these go for your home too! ❤

Get creative & stand out. ❤

xoxo,

KITTY

Project: Girls' Room now in progress!

About a week ago, I made an inspiration board for my next home project. (Click here to see the inspiration board!)) Then completed a successful garage sale weekend to de-clutter! (Yard Sale Weekend Blogpost) 
In between this week's deadlines, the fun has officially begun! Project Girls' Room is now in progress! I've started picking out the paint colors and fabric. I tried really hard to veer away from pink paint, as much as I know how little girls love everything to be pink. I've decided to stick to neutrals for the room's overall base colors and will later on splurge in color for the accents. Plus, I have an obsession for shades of gray lately that I must fulfill.♥ I want the room to look dainty but not overly girly. 

From the ever reliable Ace Hardware! 

In case you need to go back for extra paint or possibly retouch after a couple of years, they always keep a record of the paint you mixed and bought for future reference. :)

"Flint" gray for the main walls. I like how it becomes a little taupe 

with a hint of brownish lilac under warm white light.

Had a couple of old furnitures repainted too making them look brand new!

And lastly for this teaser, I'd like to share with y'all this lovely and super affordable fabric store I happened to walk into a few days ago! I was overwhelmed to see such pretty choices of fabrics that you can use for upholstery, bedsheets, curtains, etc. Prices are around 100-150/yard!! The store is COTTON DEPOT conveniently at the topmost floor of Glorietta 5. :) So convenient for the preggy me since I do not have the luxury to make trips to Divisoria for now.

LOOKY!!!

♥♥♥ Remember, makeovers need not be expensive. With a little creativity, resourcefulness, and practicality, you can quickly transform any room in your home at a price you can afford! :)

These are all for now. Stay tuned!  

Toodles,

xoxoxo

Nautically Nice

Summer is near! Kitty&Bee is Ocean-Inspired. :)

Antique Can Be CHIC

Designs have to evolve. My Antique Inspired collection just got extra-mod! Check out these vintage-finish beads allured with interlaced fabric and chains. They're oh so chic! The 1st batch of new releases have SOLD OUT even before I got a chance to make this post! :) So please do bear with me as I expand my collections in the next few weeks. More variations to come! :)

The "Prayerful"

This piece is not for sale. :)

The colorful charms, vintage medallions, and antique crucifix are all precious finds from the owner's recent trip to Lourdes, France.  From stories and articles, we'd find that Lourdes today has developed into a beautiful place of pilgrimage.  I love how this small market town inspired major works of literature dealing with sickness, despair, faith and hope.  So I'm naming it, 'the Prayerful'.  It's my pleasure to put this exquisite statement piece together.

Terracotta Splash

Who says this color can only look good on pots and brick walls?! :) Terracotta, when textured with wood, hand-painted beads, rose gold chains, browns, peaches, and oranges will never fail to make heads turn!
