Yellow
Trend Alert: Happy Swing Coats
It seems sunshine follows Cali girl Lauren Conrad wherever she goes. Case in point: in NYC, in her happy swing coat. Yellow, an unexpected yet friendly color, always brightens drab Winter days.
How-To: Decorate With Yellow
Yellow isn't my favorite color, but it's certainly a very powerful one. A room painted in a soft, pale yellow can instantly create a quaint, country vibe, while one pop of bright yellow in a dark room makes a space look modern and adventurous. But using yellow can be difficult.
Etsy Finds: Gray and Yellow Artwork
Since I wrote my slideshows on how to decorate with gray and with yellow, I've been on a major gray and yellow kick, and I'm considering using those colors in a palette for one of my rooms. So as a start, I thought I'd see what gray and yellow artwork is out there. Obviously having more than two colors in a painting or a print will give it more depth and visual interest, so it's not limited to just these hues!
Desire/Acquire: Rubie Green Tillinghast Fabric
Don't get me wrong: I absolutely adore Rubie Green textiles. But the label's stylish and eco-conscious fabrics are not exactly wallet-conscious. This cheerful, Chippendale-esque Tillinghast fabric goes for $90 a yard.
Before and After: Sunny Pops of Yellow
Su Casa member RachelG decided to add her two cents to my decorating with yellow post and give an old book table and wicker chair a makeover with a few coats of sunny yellow spray paint. She put the two pieces in separate rooms, which creates cohesiveness throughout her home, not to mention adds a bit of zing! Want to see the furniture in the bright new shade?
Technicolor Toys: Yellow Gadgets and Accessories
Those on a magical mission to follow the yellow brick road will appreciate fine gadgets in the sunny hue. It's a lively, hopeful, and friendly color (think emoticons!), which is just what I want to feel when I look at my gizmos. While yellow is an uncommon color for big ticket gadgets, it makes for a fruity assortment of novelty gizmos and accessories.

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Funny Show
I'm a lover of fashion, but did you know I also like laughing? In fact, I participated in a comedy open mic in NYC a couple years back. Needless to say, I bombed.
Get the Look: Call Me Mellow Yellow and Gray
I wrote about the pale yellow and gray trend nearly two years ago, but baby's still got a hold on me. I spotted this subtle living room in Homes and Gardens, and couldn't help but want to scratch everything in my own digs and re-create this look.Naturally, the Ligne Roset sofa and the B&B Italia Fat Fat — Lady Fat Table make the room all the more crave worthy, but the palette is really what makes me swoon. The room has a mostly white and pale gray background with small punches of yellow and some black elements to balance out the pastel.
