Before I go into where to get these red hot items take a peek at some new Valentine’s anti-Valentine’s I did for those feeling bitter or annoyed with all the sweet and syrupy Valentine greetings. I want there to be something for everyone! These are with the other free ones in my flickr collection.

I’ve been getting in gear for Valentine’s Day for a little while now. I made my free cards for you and now I’m going to start posting fun valentine gifts and goodies. I’m also going to post a red palette clothing and accessories compilation like I did for brown, blue, and yellow. All this and more before the fun holiday. If you know of any other fun dessert shaped goodies that you want to share, let me know!

Blue palette clothing and accessories for men and women

Blue palette

I’m super into color as you may know if you tune into Maquette frequently. I’ve started a series of fashion and accessories for men and women compilations in limited palettes. I did chocolate browns and now sky blues. Also, for fun I used Copaso, my new obsession, to create a palette from the items. See below:

Chocolate color palette: Clothing and accessories for men and women in brown tones

Chocolate browns

I’m quite obsessed with color and how evocative it can be of feelings, memories, and tastes. I’ve decided to compile a few unisex fashion items within certain color palettes. Chocolate browns were a lovely place to start. The words that come to mind for me when I see a lovely shade of brown are “rich, luscious, and smooth”. These words can often circumvent boundaries and be used to describe foods like chocolate for example. I think brown is also an elegant color, understated, and classy. In certain fabrics its many tones can be seen such as in the silk blouse above. So here’s my chocolate palette. Some others I’d love to do are: Red, pink, orange and yellow.
