Summer is all about sunny days and cool, relaxing nights and of course, fun and bright colors and patterns! Don't get me wrong I'm a huge "black is the new white" advocate but I love bright colors and accessorizing with them all season long. Mixing patterns and bright colors is fun in more than just clothing and accessories too - fun and bright indoor and outdoor decor are just as exciting and make everything more summery and fun.
The weather is finally consistently beautiful, warm and sunny and I've been finding some really exciting fun summer pieces! I'm a firm believer that living colorfully is one of the best things you can do for yourself, and as one of this season's biggest trends, here are some of my favorites:

MLB is back which means spring is in full gear! My favorite living space starting now and basically through the end of October is my backyard and the patio space in the backyard. There's nothing better than sitting at the pool by day and relaxing on the patio with a fire by night! I'm a firm believer that one of the best things you can do is be outside as much as possible, so making my outdoor living space as cozy, relaxing and stylish as possible is just as important to me as it is to creatively and beautifully decorate any room inside of my home. There are so many ways to update an outdoor space and honestly, it's the funnest area to makeover! The options are endless and there's so many different routes you can take - beachy, modern, rustic - the list never ends.
Big Lots has been a life saver when it comes to outdoor decorating; not only do they have really great, stylish outdoor decor and furniture, but everything is so affordable and of great quality too! Mixing and matching pieces often works the best in an outdoor space; this is when I take full advantage of fun pattern and color mixing! The seasonal/outdoor décor and furniture sections of the store are so extensive too - there are endless aisles and displays of gorgeous, high-quality pieces that are perfect for any type of yard refresh you're going for.
