Photography & Dresses
Tuesday, February 23, 2010 I would say my two greatest passions are photography and clothing -- pretty obvious, right? So you could imagine my delight when I happened upon Gwen Samuel's work. She stitches together transparencies that have been printed on with images -- to create dresses. Would I not give to see an exhibition. Truly beautiful work.


designers/artists I'm always too slow...but...
Monday, February 8, 2010 ..I'd love to snag something from these two shops when they have updates. For some reason, I'm either too slow when I click or I remember the shop update a few hours too late.

Poppies & Posies
Friday, January 8, 2010 Here are a few lovely and fresh arrangements from the floral & event design company, Poppies & Posies, to warm you up for the weekend. The temps in the southeast have been hovering around below freezing for days -- I take it as preparation for our move to NYC next week :)
Be sure to check out Poppies & Posies newly redesigned website. Isn't their work beautiful? Hope you have a great weekend!

Tuesday, January 5, 2010 Remember Alli Coate's awesome embroidery work? She recently launched a fabric jewelry line and I love her pendant necklaces.

jewelry Uniform Natural
Tuesday, December 22, 2009 It's way past time to tell anyone what I'd like for Christmas but post-holiday is the perfect time for self-purchases :) Starting with this braided loop scarf from Uniform Natural.

Anna Lynett
Sunday, December 20, 2009 The newest season of Project Runway starts in January and I already have a favorite. I love the work from Anna Lynett, simple color palette, lovely construction, and a nod to school uniforms. Who knows how the show will shape out ... the very idea of conceptualizing, shopping for fabric, and creating a garment in a day makes my head spin ... but I can wait to see more from her.

photography Fashion Girls
Tuesday, November 10, 2009 Love, love, love these fashion illustrations by Miss Capricho. Spotted over on Two Brunettes last week, I couldn't help but share. The blend of line drawing with selective watercolor is perfect -- each girl has her own personality and style..

designers/artists Nosideup: Stella
Thursday, October 29, 2009 I'm not sure if I love the illustration or the description better...

"She just had this feeling. It was more than a feeling, it was a sense of certainety. She knew today was going to be one of the best days of her life. She could smell the spring, the sun felt insistent from the other side of the window. She looked around her once more, before stepping outside. Swelling with happiness, she played Rodrigo and Gabriela louder on the iPod. She was almost bouncing down the street. Whatever was about to happen, she didn't know. But she knew it was good. She loved the world, and the world loved her."
