I'm Back, and here's what I'm up to.

I'm BACK! I was going to stop blogging because I felt like no one was reading but I figured someone has to be, even if it's just one person. So, lately I've been working on some mood boards for some portfolio collections I'm conceptualizing:

These two are for my senior collection which I just shot a few months ago. Photos to come as soon as I get them (cough, CAT, cough).

These are for a project I did in Intro to Fashion Design in college. I revisited the collection and made it better/ more current. Done keeping in mind Valentino aesthetic with a roman goddess theme.

 This is a garden party cocktail/evening collection. Very extravagant. Chantilly lace, stones, heavy silks. Sparked by the gown on Marilyn, seen above, and the famous tulle gown with a silk flower bust that Edith Head designed for Liz Taylor.

Lastly, we have the Dorothy Draper inspired collection. Graphic stripes of black and white, palm prints from the Beverly Hills Hotel wallpaper, solid jade greens, and splashes of pink. Vintage KJL jewels and large 1960s buns. Very California, very Barbie.

Etsy Shoppe

I am so excited to say that I will be starting an Etsy shop! I will be selling prints of my fashion illustrations as well as cards and original pieces. Everything I love will be incorporated. I will be taking some time to get things together and to have everything up and running but I can tell you that I am working on some fun summer postcards. A little Martin Denny:

and some of my fabulous fashion models on holiday! I can't wait to finish them and show them off!

Im Back

I took a bit of a hiatus and have been getting my life together. I will give details at a later date but nothing important is going on. I have started working hardcore on my portfolio and business cards are in the works so for today I will leave you with the mood boards for my new project that I have been talking about in the previous posts.

 These are the Bunny Yeager photos that inspired the entire collection. I will post finished photos of everything when it is finished which should be within the next couple of weeks.

Happy New Year

Since I have caught up on my sleep, I'm finally ready to post again. I had a fabulous New Years Eve with my friends here in Savannah at SubZero. Saya, one of my favorite former haunts has been redone and renamed. It was an amazing time and I was surrounded by glittering crystal, and extraordinary amounts of white. Needless to say, I felt rite at home.

I hope that all of you reading had as wonderful of a time as I did! Also, because my skin has been freaking out lately, I am trying some new face products and can't wait to review them for you.
