Handbags.

Hello blog and blog readers. How is your Saturday going? So I am actually quite surprised that I have never blogged about these bags before but I love them. The bags I am talking about are Kim White Handbags. Here is a picture:
I actually have this  fabric in this style bag:
As her website says, "[She] specializes in handbags made from vintage automotive fabric". I love her bags so much. the shapes are fun and the bags are quirky and make an outfit more fun. What do you think? Love 'em, hate 'em, or just okay? Let me know and have a great weekend.

Kid Robot

Hello Readers.
How is everyone? I hope your week has been well... I am planning on going to a estate sale in a little while but earlier this week I was doing some internet shopping and I went over to the kid robot site. I saw this cute hot dog pouch. They call them yummypockets pouch and I guess if you love hot dogs you would be pretty hungry.


It actually look really realistic, so would you want an un-messy hotdog floating around in your purse or would you just bypass this accessory? Is it a hit or miss?
Let me know. Have a great weekend.

My Dress Design for Shabby Apple Dresses.

We were assigned a project in one of my fashion design classes that correlated to an actual contest happening at Shabby Apple Dresses. I had  a lot of fun with this project and all the things it entailed. 

My Mood Board

 I was inspired by The Notebook and all of the great dresses that Rachel McAdams wore. The 1940s and all of the different styles that are still cute and tasteful are what I think of when I think Shabby Apple.

My Textiles

The colors are ones I saw that were forecasted for Spring 2011. I chose two knits, the blue-berry is an interlock and cloudy is a single jersey knit  that I thought would work well on the bodice parts of my dresses. For the wovens  I chose two prints, logan berry and butter, which are 100% cotton. Then I chose one solid, raspberry,  that  I thought would go well with the other prints.

I hope you enjoy my designs and let me know what you think.

FYF

Hello. I know I am a bit late blogging about the FYF Festival at the cornfield at the beginning of September, but I did attend with some of my bffs and I had a wonderful time listening to Dead Man's Bones and Cold Cave for the very first time. You would recognize Cold Cave from the Verizon commercial. Okay, so I should be blogging about accessories and that is just what I am about to do. I saw some very interesting things there and my favorite of the whole night was this dinosaur bag.

It is like the street version of the bag I blogged about here, from Giles Deacon. I actually love both versions of dinosaur bags...let me know what you. Do you like one better than the other or are dinosaurs just not for you? Have a great weekend!

Proenza Schouler Spring 2010 in action

Once again I was on Jak&Jil this morning andI found this really rad picture of these two women in an animal printed top and her friend has a jacket on and as someone pointed out it is actually Proenza Schouler from Spring 2010.

I really like the top and the jacket, it is totally my style and more then likely you would probably be able to find this in my closet. What about you? Is this your style? Yay or Nay? Let me know...Have a great weekend

Hello again.

Long time no blog. How is everyone out there? I'm thinking of moving to tumblr. I need some feedback so let me know...This semester I think I'm still doing accessories but I may change it up from time to time. So I was flipping through Jak&Jil and I found these really rad heels.
These are like two of my favorite colors black and that sea foamy green/turquoise. I don't know if I would ever be able to wear these as I am a total klutz, but they are pretty cool. I know in my closet they would match with a lot of things and I think they would fair pretty well  in most women's closets because this turquoise color has been very popular. What do you think? Would I find these in your closet? Let me know...

Heavy Metal.

How many of you out there are into heavy metal? It doesn't have to be the music it can be the chains or whatever...I guess it's up to interpretation and what your definition of it is. I was surfing through Jak&Jil again because I love they're blog and I found these great heels.
This could be a definition of heavy metal, right? I don't know what I would wear these with...maybe a little black dress? What would you wear these with? Let me know.
