I left my recent trip to the South of France incredibly inspired. Travel really does work wonders on the soul. Of course, the streets filled with colorful villas, abundant climbing garden roses and Provencal rosé helps reset your soul, too.

When I travel I’m particularly drawn to homes — the style, color palette, front door, hardware and more. I actually started a hashtag #ArtoftheEntry to capture the charming homes I encounter when I travel. So every morning, I’d walk around the small village of L’Isle Sur-La-Sorgue and snap pictures of the cotton candy inspired homes. Every since we got back home, I’ve been begging Casey to buy a house in Savannah that we can paint pink and hang French blue shutters. He’s not on board just yet… but I still have hope.

I’m sharing 18 images of real-life homes in the South of France that will hopefully give you some color inspiration for you home! I don’t have the exact paint colors but Benjamin Moore has an app that allows you to snap a picture of any color that catches your eye and it will give you a match from their 3,300+ paint colors. So, if you see something that you like from this post, take a screen shot and upload it to the Benjamin Moore Color Capture app. It will give you a gradient color list, that way you can test different paint colors so you can find the perfect color!

Have you heard of French Blue or French Grey? Right, most people have. It’s truly a real thing over in France. My favorite color combination is a pale pink with french blue. It’s everywhere and I immediately fell in love. Let me know which colors you like best from the photos below!
