🌞 July Moodboard: Colours, Vibes, and Inspiration
July holds a kind of golden energy—sun-drenched days, slow afternoons, and the sense that we’re right in the heart of the year. It’s a month full of contrasts: bold and bright, yet soft and still. Here’s a glimpse into the colours, textures, and moods inspiring me this month.
🎨 COLOURS OF JULY
Think sun-faded, nature-kissed, and picnic-ready.
• Warm Honey & Buttermilk – reminiscent of golden light, fresh bread, and buttered toast at the table.
• Coral Peach – like sun-kissed cheeks and watermelon slices.
• Dusty Rose – vintage summer dresses and garden blooms.
• Soft Sage Green – wild meadows, fresh herbs, and quiet morning walks.
• Sky Blue – open skies, cool linens, and lakeside escapes.
• Terracotta – sun-warmed earth, terracotta pots, and rustic tiles.
Use these in your home, your journal, your outfits—or even your candle label designs. Let colour carry the feeling.
✨ VIBES & FEELINGS
The energy of July is…
• Golden hour everything – slow, glowing evenings that stretch forever.
• Sensory rituals – the clink of ice in a glass, cool sheets, warm skin, and flickering candlelight.
• Stillness with sparkle – peaceful, but alive with possibility.
• Simple pleasures – berries picked from the bush, bare feet on the grass, the smell of rosemary on your fingertips.
• Nature connection – lying under trees, feeling grounded, present, and a little more in love with the world.
đź“· VISUAL INSPIRATION
Moodboard elements to pin or photograph:

đź’ INSPIRATION & INTENTIONS
Use this mood to guide your creativity and lifestyle for the month:
• Write a summer intention each morning with iced coffee in hand
• Create something with your hands—bake, paint, craft, plant
• Unplug for an evening and light a candle at sunset
• Reflect: What does your soul crave in the warmth of summer?
📝 Final Thought
July reminds us to live inside the moment—to feel the sun, taste the fruit, hear the quiet. Let this month be gentle, golden, and filled with inspiration you can carry into everything you do.
