A Late Summer Color Palette, II

If the first palette that I came up with for Nicole was soft and muted, this one is playful and perhaps a bit lighter…

When I was looking at Nicole’s inspiration board, I was really drawn to the peach hues that she included. They seemed to stand out from the rest, a sweet take on a Fall palette. When I was playing around with colors for this second board, I started drawing from the peach…adding pinks, khaki and a deep orange to ground the look. I absolutely love the end result. It seems Summery, but warm. It seems like Fall, but not quite as heavy. To me, it’s a good compliment to the elements that Nicole was working with.
