Paradise is Waiting..

I haven't taken a real vacation in a very long time, heck, I've never even been out of the country.  This summer season is a first for me, I'm going on three vacations starting next month and July can't fly by fast enough!

First up is Hilton Head, South Carolina.  I've been reading all about this beautiful place because it seems like every home decor magazine I pick up has some sort of feature article.  I'm really looking forward to being in the south again (I'm originally from Florida) and immersing myself into doing.. well, absolutely nothing!  When I think of Hilton Head, I think of reds, blues and tans.  Very preppy and beachy.  If I wanted to bring quintessential Hilton Head into my home; I'd go with Ultra Bloom.

Next up, Puerto Rico!  VIVA Puerto Rico!  Can you tell how excited I am for this trip?  I know I don't need a passport for this trip, but it is technically out of the country.  Anyway! After spending endless hours on Gran Melia's website, I'm super inspired by their tropical decor.  So, if I were to bring my Puerto Rican inspiration into my home (which I am seriously considering) I'd go with Tribeca in orange.  Orange seems to be a staple color in tropical environments; and who doesn't love this sunburst pattern?

Last stop on my vacation filled summer is sunny Florida!  I grew up in Florida and believe me, Florida home decor is not all palm trees and hibiscus flowers.  There's definitely a mod & art decor theme in a lot of the hotel decor and that's definitely a huge reason why I love vacationing there.  This pillow in StopDrop that I picked out screams "I'm on a couch in Florida waiting for you to pick me up!"

Needless to say, I'm extremely excited for my vacations coming up and I hope everyone gets to have a vacation as well.  If you can't, try bringing some of the tropics into your house and you'll realize you're much more relaxed!
