I want to wear this whole cake in my hair. Yes, it would be awkward. BUT WORTH IT.

I feel like summer needs some bold, vivid colors, though. You know, the kind that smack you in the eyeballs with pure awesome? Like this:

Though I suppose the happiest summer shade has got to be yellow. Am I right?

And how perfect are those gray succulents with it? Mmmm.
I will forever drool over Emerald City green:

ORANGEY GOODNESS!
And I don't know how they did that shimmery texture in the middle, but YES.
Now some pinks and oranges and greens?

And all that textured white? Ahhhh. Yep. I'll take that, too, please.
Any Monet fans out there?

I like how velvety those lily pads looks. I want to pet them.
And last but never least, my favorite today goes... to the flamingos:

SQUEE! Hand-painted perfection. This has undone the damage of a hundred tacky lawn flamingos, all in one fell swoop.
Happy Sunday, everyone! Stay cool out there!
