Did you hear?

Indigo is the hue we need.

I love saying it: I-N-D-I-G-O-GO-GO.

Sounds all boho and hippo-ish and kind of exotic, like a trip to the south of France or something.

I’m obsessed with indigo.

It’s not simply BLUE; it’s blue-specific.

A dark, inky purple-y midnight-y blue that’s a chameleon in different kinds of lighting. It’s intense and soothing all at the same time.

When I was in Crete and on Hydra ( I went to Greece a LONG time ago), there was a lot of indigo – against the Aegean, against bright white walls and chairs and grape leaves overhanging patio latticework.

These shelves of indigo remind me of my travels…

In my never-ending quest for fashionable finds, I discovered the most delicious scarf with elephants walking all over it.

I already had a gauzy loose fitting shirt with a hint of indigo…Woodstock, anyone?

Now I’m looking to add some indigo to our outdoor decor. There’s that creepy little split stone plant and a citronella candle. Miniature pomegranate tree in a Mexican pot with hints of indigo. (Never mind the ugly electric cord.)Decorator tip 1: Group an accent color for drama and flair!

Decorator tip 2: Easy! Get a small can of indigo paint for outdoor planters.

Get some indigo. GO.
