interior inspiration : cutesy retro.













This has always been one of my favorite interior styles- lots of pretty vintage items, a bit of fifties and sixties kitsch, candy-like colors, and cute feminine touches. It's definitely a look I usually go for in my home.

  1. Definitely very cute. I'm ogling the pics with red, trying to figure out what to go with my randomly acquired red kitchen accents (so not normally into red, so I'm trying to work it into the turquoise I do love).

  14. If my kitchen looked even a bit close to how cute and cozy that last one is I probably would be spending all day just baking or cooking up something. Love all the colors and definitely something to keep in mind for inspiration. Thanks a bunch!
