1. J.Crew's color choices for summer. Couldn't love that second outfit any more... it's so sweet!
3. This amazing pattern (via Claire Coles)
3. I always love a splash of yellow (via Topshop)
4. Cute little vintage dress in the perfect summer teal.
5. Summer sunnies. I love this color combination. reminds me of pink lemonade.
6. My two favorite polish colors this season... Tart Deco and Braziliant by Essie. (I wore Tart Deco in my bridal portraits)
7. Summer cocktails in the perfect colors (via my sweet friend Betsey J.)
8. This dress is perfect in every way. Marc Jacobs does it right.
9. I love this colorful necklace (via Leif)
10. and a few more pretty things (via Jonathan Adler)
So far, my summer hasn't flown by. It's been nice and steady with a mostly healthy balance of work, play and just-for-fun. How is your summer and what colors are you loving this season?

Love your cute favorites - they pop with color and are so fun to look at!
My summer has flown by so far this year...I feel like I missed June entirely - it's sad since we had such a brutal winter and this beautiful weather is what I've been longing for!
My favorite nail polish colors so far this summer are OPI's "Dress to Empress," Essie's "Lapis of Luxury," and Essie's "Sew Psyched" (blogged here: http://hello-dear-wind.blogspot.com/2011/07/three-more-diys-other-stuff.html). I love finding fun new colors to wear!

So many pretty colours! I love that pattern!
I've been experimenting with different nail polish colours lately, my favourite right now is mint green :)

That blue chair is fantastic! I am very much so enjoying muted blues and bright oranges this season. My summer is going very well so far, a lot of travel the first half, but now my hubby is coming home tomorrow from 6 weeks in Nashville and so I am greatly looking forward to my second half of my summer, less travel and a lot more of the simple-summer backyard fun with Dustin! :) mK

I am enjoying an incredibly lazy summer, but I am kind of ready to get back into the swing of things. Summers always drag on for me. I am loving basically all colors this summer, but especially bright orange, pale aqua, daffodil yellow, navy, and Jadeite green.

Looove the topshop dress. Looks like lemon cream cake. :D Personally, I'm loving the peach/mint combination of colors this summer. All hail pastels and cupcake colors. :D

I love everything on here so much, my wallet is groaning a little bit! So pretty. Those Leif necklaces have been on the top of my inspiration list lately. I love her process for choosing a color palette!
