If the Emmy Awards were any indication, deep blue seems to be a color on the rise. Crayola’s Midnight Blue was my very first “favorite color” and I still enjoy these dark, inky blues. So, inspired by blue, the following is a look at Sunday’s red carpet gowns and additional examples of beautiful, deep shades of blue. Hope you enjoy. Have a fantastic day!

Charleston SC: Historic Architecture
Built in 1820, the Wegman-Holmes house is considered one of the top historic residences in Charleston, SC. Currently on the market here, it’s easy to love the gorgeous details of this home. Located on a half-acre lot, it even has a guest house that functions as a working B&B. Following are more photos of this southern charmer’s interior design and architectural details.

Fashion: Seeing Red
As I start thinking about fall fashion each year, my mind inevitably wanders into the red zone. Perhaps it’s in anticipation of nature’s burst of rich color each autumn, but around September, I start craving red fashion. In fact, this week I added a red jacket to my wardrobe. The following are photos filled with red inspiration. It’s just what I needed this week. What about you: Do you crave certain colors at different times of the year?

Glass House
The property in Montecito California known as the Glass Pavilion is currently for sale. Built by Steve Hermann, this contemporary home comes in at almost 14,000 square feet and is located on approximately 3.5 acres. The house has 5 bedrooms, 5-1/2 baths, a wine room and a gallery big enough to hold 32 cars. It’s definitely a one-of-a-kind. I have to ask: Knowing you were surrounded by 3.5 acres, would you feel comfortable enough to live in a glass house like this?

Fall Fashion: Loving Leopard Print
As I flipped through my September issues last weekend, I was positively giddy with the amount of animal print in those fashion pages. Although I’m personally of the opinion that it’s a classic and never goes out of style…it appears it’s as in as ever this fall. And it seems leopard print (which just happens to be my absolute favorite) is the exotic print of choice this year. Following is a look at some of the leopard print options available right now. Are you a fan? Or is there another animal print you prefer?
