Black and white and vintage all over...




Very vintage inspired this piece has a lot going for it- hand cut and pressed dupioni and habotai silk, pretty pearl and glass bead center, vintage laces in black and cream, charcoal velvet leaves, feathers and tulle, oh my!! For sale shortly in the etsy shop :-)

*push*








Sometimes you need a push- creatively. Working on a bouquet for a client that is completely handmade. She is pushing me back to the things I like best- vintagey, muted colors, LOTS of texture, imperfect perfection. Sometimes feedback can take you to creative places you forgot existed.

J.Crew- LOVE!






I've always been a Anthro/J.Crew kinda girl, but the July 2010 J.Crew catalog is driving me crazy, I can't stop paging thru it!!!! I have been wanting a pair of oxford shoes forever and these are soooo perfect! Loving the shoes in both Anthro and J.Crew lately. Also, I stopped by the Scottsdale store recently and found a terrific sale got the perfect pair of cotton skinny trousers for less than $20!!
