the prettiest meal of the day

I found out about Bowhaus's breakfast photography and a recent blog and have been checking back here and there.

Then these pretty photos inspired me to my next Cath Kidston purchase. Perfect for pretty breakfasts.

Thank you + a GIVEAWAY- Midcentury eyeglass case!!!

A few thanks. First another thank you to essie who delivered their beautiful fall collection to my door this past week. It is amazing. A mix of muddy but chic browns and mauves, next to the very brightest brights I've seen in a long time. Think my favorite is the navy..but not sure just yet? Thank you for always keeping me well polished.
For you essie fans out there- there is still some time to try out that summer collection while it's in stores- b/c pinks and reds are never out of style for this girl.A second thanks today goes to you. We hit 400 followers on my little art blog. A space where I post the stylish little finds that inspire my work. Thank you for always supporting me. I have had a great time with this little - but growing blog.
As you know with every 100 followers comes a giveaway. This one is from Dear Golden- one of my favorite vintage stores on etsy. Just leave a comment below of what you like in her shop and the winner will be announced 9-4-09. xo



You know I love to mix old and new- so I'd put my new Mark Jacobs in this retro case! This case is a midcentury eyeglass & sunglass case! So sweet! Thanks Dear Golden!!

j crew fashion illustration


I got the new jcrew today, and I was most inspired by something not sold in the store. I adore the styling of the socks.



Throughout the magazine heels are paired with neon ankle socks. I also caught a glimpse of nude ankle fishnets that inspired this illustration.

(If you are interested in these fashion illustrations, this one will be in the etsy shop today! Only $40 unframed, more if you'd like it framed... hope you enjoy!)
