from me, to you

In the past few months my career has changed greatly.  My job has taken me to new places, brought on new challenges and has introduced me to so many new people - even some new friends. My job has changed from Fashion illustrator, to fashion illustrator/ Style Expert, to Fashion Illustrator/ Style Expert/ Correspondent, and the titles continue to evolve weekly. I know so many of you have been following on twitter and instagram because I love reading all of your notes while I am traveling. Your encouragements have become such a support system throughout this journey.

Today,  I'm thankful for everything that has been happening in my life. And I am equally to have you all experiencing it along with me. I can't wait to see what is next and to share it with everyone as more exciting, and sometimes frightening, changes take place.

Hope you have a moment spend some time with the people who make you the happiest today.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Glitter Guide Feature and (the best) Giveaway!!!

I am so thrilled to be featured on one of my favorite go-to sites, Glitter Guide this week. So happy in fact, that we are giving away an original illustration!!! HUGE!

Taylor called me to be a part of this a few weeks ago and I couldn't be more excited to share a more personal side of me with you. Laura Novak took the photos here in my townhome early one Sunday morning- (I know you caught some behind the scenes on instagram, @dallasshaw) - and I am so excited to see the shots live on Glitter Guide today. The photos below are a few faves and some that Laura snapped that you can only see here.

So...the giveaway. It's actually kind of a big deal. I don't give away any of the illustrations b/c of their value ($1,000+). They are all originals and I like to try to stay true to my clients (dkny, chanel, ralph lauren, kate spade, jack rogers...) but we decided that my readers and followers are some of the most stylish women in the world, so they- you- deserve one too!

Here is the illustration up for grabs. It will comes framed and matted. To enter, follow @dallasshaw01 and @glitterguide on twitter (if you don't already, hurry up, you are missing the fun). And send us a tweet telling us how you sparkle. Hashtag #glittergirl so we can find your entry when the contest closes at the end of the week.

Good luck everyone. I am so excited to give you this original illustration!! And thank you Glitter Guide for the amazing feature.
