Trend Spotting

One of the emerging trends for fall is Camo. Let me warn you, tread carefully with this one as it can be easily misinterpreted. As seen on the runways of Michael Kors and Phillip Lim (just to name a few), this trend might have some staying power.

From the runway to the real way, here are some ways to wear it now and later on in the fall.

Baby Blues

Anyone else still recovering from the Royal Baby? Let's pay tribute to the future king with some royal blue hues. 

(Inspired by this look from the lovely Rachel, aka: Pink Peonies) 

That dress

I refrained from sketching this dress for months because it has already been sketched by numerous artists. That is, until yesterday when I saw the new Oscar ad campaign for fall. 

To die for...

The dress is too good to not take a stab at it... so here is my best attempt.

Here's how I see it: pair it with other girls in gowns for a fantastic gallery...

Royal Baby

I have decided to make it part of my job description to keep you updated on the Royal Family. From the Royal Engagement to dealing with international affairs, the Royal Wedding (dress one & two), and now to the baby reveal, Kate never disappoints. 

And, in case you missed it (how could you), the Prince of Cambridge has arrived! I was 99.9% sure it was going to be a girl, and I was 100% wrong. Here's a sneak peek at a new design inspired by the Duchess herself. New designs will be released in the coming weeks.... cue the second #GreatKateWait. 

Here's a look back at some of her other monumental fashion choices...

 

Stay tuned for 

A. the baby name reveal (my bet is on William Alexander) 

and 

B. the release of several new designs! 

Evie

I was looking on Pinterest and these lovely photos of Eva Longoria popped up. They are the perfect pop of color on this dreary dreary day. 

It was then that I realized that "Evie" hasn't been on the website in who knows how long. So, I'm happy to announce that she's officially back on the market, so to speak, aka the website. 

Crop Top

Two trends that I would be perfectly fine with if they went away forever:

1. High-low skirts/dresses

2. Crop Tops 

However, this chic is perfectly put together with her simple white skirt and crop top. Not to mention her luscious locks are something to envy.

Custom Bridal Illustrations

It's definitely wedding season and, therefore, custom bridal illustration season. Here are just a couple of the ones I've been working on...

Hudson

Just kidding.... I decided to do Kate, too!

I think her and Blake make a lovely pair for a gallery wall.

Lively

And it's Blake Lively for the win....

If you follow me on Instagram, you know that I polled the audience to see if I should draw Kate or Blake. Ms. Lively won, or should I say, Mrs. Reynolds (jealous).

Bell

Sometimes, things don't go as planned. Take this picture, for example. I LOVE the shoes, love the colors, love the whole thing. 

When I put pen to paper, she ended up looking like Tinkerbell, accidentally. 

For the Disney fans, prints available here. 

Deco

The details speak for themselves...

Multi Print

It's summer... you can get away with more, like mixed prints! These two don't even coordinate which makes this look oh-so-chic and worth a try (inspired by this pin)...

She's carrying my favorite summer tote, the Mar y Sol Havana Tote which is available at Shopbop and Piperlime for $110 and $119. However, we sell them on Hogan Road for $100 (also available in navy).

It makes the perfect beach bag, pool bag, everyday tote, and even overnight bag (if you pack light).

2014 Planner Sneak Peak

I'll give you a little preview of one of the 2014 planner girls. Not sure where she fits in yet, but she'll be in there! 

Royal Turban

With the 4th just around the corner, it's time to turn to some of my favorite bloggers for outfit inspiration. Here are some ideas for showing your patriotic spirit without being overly cheesy. 

Option #1: from Song of Style

-denim cutoffs with Americana accessories. Simple, chic, perfect.

Option #2: from Brooklyn Blonde

-tattered denim with a semi-preppy red striped shirt & red bag

Option #3: also from Brooklyn Blonde & Frankie Hearts Fashion

-for a dressier look, a fuller skirt + pumps + tucked in shirt in the country's colors

Option #4: from Fash Boulevard and Happily Grey

-shorts and either a preppy blazer or a flag sweater (can't go wrong with that #America)

 

Option #5: from What Courtney Wore

-for a lake/beach day... a festive cover-up and hat

Option #6: small accessories 

-incorporate festive accessories like this flag scarf from Free People
