as promised- On sale today only

Today is the day! If you have always wanted a piece of the artwork, but just couldn't afford it, the few remaining key paintings are $100 each. I actually use my key painting as a table tray instead of on the wall- looks super cute with a few baubles and sunglasses in it. If you'd like one please email dallasshawdesign@gmail.com (shipping included!!)

Here is what is left of the keys! Old price reflected on that site, so email me for the special pricing.

Something else I wanted to share with you today ,

Bags that I like, from missibaba

going dutch

I want to say a special thank you this morning to Style Republic Magazine for featuring me here today. It's so nice to have others in the creative biz appreciate my work, personal style and blog. You can follow Style Republic here on twitter, I did the fashion illustration you'll see there. ;) Now onto the post:

Recently I have been drawn to dutch doors.

Here are a few that Erika and I liked.

 I'd like it even more if the trim inside were something unique to the door could open to a pop of surprising color!

oh. Double dutch:

Thoughts on the dutch door??

The prettiest dutch pancakes to ruin your diet, gelukkig- a pretty sleek dutch brand, a dutch bike...

I have been visiting the zara website so frequently these past few weeks. I love that you currently don't see heads in the product shots- b/c I am picturing myself in every outfit!

 

and, I have never seen such cute kids shoes in my life.

Better Together: stripes... and more stripes

Stripes and... more stripes

I love stripes, always have, always will. So I obviously like when people pair stripes with even more stripes. Just change up the stripe width and you're good to go! You can change strip colors or keep the same!

Our pairings:

Tabitha Simmons with jcrew

 Bonnie Baby with Kate Spade (this bag is equally great to throw in a diaper or travel bag.)

FermLiving with jcrew

Other things I like:

for my toes, for my neck,  for my shades...

makeup inspiration

I have lip stains in bright poppy red, deep red orange, and the most popular shade: a deep berry. And I wear the stains most in the spring and summer.

Don't be afraid of the deep color of the stain when you purchase. The lip tints will give you just a bit of color. My favorite thing about these? They look purposely imperfect.

 What color stain will you try?

Mary Helen Bowers

If these photos of Mary Helen Bowers by Christian Witkin in this month's Women's Health don't inspire you to shape up for Spring- I don't know what will. So beautiful.

The Green Vase

I love paper flower and am flirting with learning to make them for all of my gift giving. I think these might be my very favorite so far by The Green Vase.

And these would be just lovely for my client thank you gifts?
