Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a lovely weekend, ready to rock another week!! :)

 

It’s time for this week’s Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our gorgeous Green with Envy by Jackie McFee Collection. Green with Envy is our luscious botanical collection of rich navy and green hues. Mixing in some modern geometrics and fun chevrons in different shades of our beloved green color, Green with Envy is the collection of collections for our fellow green enthusiasts (also available in our double gauze!). Decorate your space to have a cozy, earthy feel with some GWE tabbed curtains and a standout bed quilt.

Michael Kors’ Spring 2014 collection was wonderfully nature-inspired, with its cool earth tone color palette and botanical prints. Beautiful navy, woodsy, and leaf green prints draped against each model to create an ethereal feel. We especially adore his green leaf prints, such as this outfit here, which was reminiscent of our Green with Envy collection. Perfectly fit for a woodland fairy!

 

Hope today’s Moody Monday has inspired you. We’d love to know what trends you are most excited about for the Summer weather. Have an awesome day!

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Monday! I hope you all are had a wonderful Father’s Day weekend!! It was such a lovely weekend for us, which was spent outdoors swimming and BBQing :)

 

Let’s start off this week with our Moody Monday! Today we are taking a complete 180 with season, and featuring our Winter Wonderland by Heather Rosas collection. The blue, grey, and pink hues are uplifting and cozy in this charmingly cute collection of winter characters. From the regal ice princess to the sweet penguins, polar bears, and foxes wearing winter gear, Winter Wonderland truly is full of magic & delight! Yes, it’s Summer now but hey – there’s never a wrong time for adorable prints, right? ;) We can imagine a winter-themed quilt or pillow, as well as these dreamy tabbed curtains.

This Pierre Balmain Spring collection was so bright and modern. There was a definite street wear feel to all of his outfits (all the outfits were styled perfectly for the model’s to head to an event after the show!), which is not something you see all the time on a runway. Lots of colorful Spring jackets, printed capris and shorts, and fun textural pairings (leather & lace, satin & animal print). One of the really fun jackets was this snowflake printed one, which we LOVED. It was so cool and reminded us of our Winter Wonderland collection.

 

We hope we have inspired you with today’s Moody Monday! We’d love to know what your favorite Summer trends for the year are. Have an awesome rest of the day!

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Monday! I hope you all had an awesome weekend!! It was such a gorgeous weekend here, and was happily spent by the pool and at the farmer’s market (fresh veggies for a BBQ = yum!!) :)

 

Starting off our week with our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring one of our Spring 2015 collections, Little Bird by the Camelot Design Studio. Little Bird is a girly and dainty collection of pretty birdies, mushrooms, and confetti dots in mint, pink, gray, and taupe hues. This gentle, whimsical collection would make for an adorable little girl’s room, complete with soft pink and mint pillows, tabbed curtains, and a cozy quilt spread. As well, we can imagine a little girl twirling in her own Little Bird dress – fit for a birthday or garden affair! Andddd…the lightness of this collection makes it perfect for our double gauze. Hello shirts, skirts, scarves, swaddling blankets…and more!

Jill Stuart is one of our absolute favorite designers, and her Spring 2012 RTW collection was definitely one to remember! The colors were so feminine – coral, pinks, yellows, and mints – and together worked flawlessly as an overall palette. Next, the mixture of different textures were playful – tweed and chiffon works so well together! There was an overall 60’s style feel to the collection, with the hourglass shapes, billowy shift dresses, and side swept bangs. One of our favorites was this dress, that was reminiscent of the bird prints in Little Bird.

 

We hope we’ve inspired you with today’s post! Summer is officially this Sunday, so we’d love to know what trends you’ve been loving for the warmer months. Have a great day!

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a fantastic weekend. Woke up to quite the dreary and wet morning, but it’s National Best Friends Day! So call all of your best girlies to let them know just how much they mean to you. Cause let’s face it, our lives would definitely not be as much fun without them!

 

Time for this week’s Moody Monday! Today we are featuring one of our Spring 2015 collections, Make a Wish by Alisse Courter. Make a Wish is a very pretty and ethereal collection of fluttery feathers and blossoms in lavender, mint, gray, and grapefruit hues. It reminds us of running through a field of beautiful blooms, barefoot and wearing a lightweight frock, cascaded by the warm sunrise. This dreamy collection is also available in our double gauze, a lightweight fabric perfect for swaddle blankets and summery scarves.

Let’s get inspired by the runway! Valentino’s Spring Couture Collection was dreamy and soft, with lots of billowy fabrics and flowing dresses. Feminine florals and jewels adorn each dress, complete with ethereal capes and princess sleeves. We can imagine all of these dresses in a princesses wardrobe, all ready to picked for the next affair. One dress that especially caught our eyes was this dress, that was reminiscent of our Make a Wish Collection. Such a stunning collection!

 

 

We hope we have inspired you with this week’s Moody Monday! We’d love to know what trends you have been loving for the season. Have a fantastic day!

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. We got a mix of super hot weather on Saturday…but then a dreary, cold day on Sunday – no winning with this season!

 

Kicking off the first day of June with our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring one of our Spring 2015 collections, Emilia by the Camelot Design Studio. Emilia is soft and feminine, combining pink, purple, peach, and grey together to create a wonderfully girly palette. The bold, sorbet prints of Emilia are perfect for a little girl’s bedroom or for a true girly-girl’s wardrobe essentials. As well, some of our Emilia prints are also available in our double gauze – perfect for a lightweight scarf!

A coincidence? Emilia Wickstead’s Fall 2015 RTW collection was absolutely stunning, combining soft muted colors with sleek, feminine silhouettes. Every dress had a fantastical flow to it, each something Lauren Bacall would have easily been seen wearing. And let us not forget about the color palette – pastels, such as yellow, blue, and purple were used to give soft textures to each piece. We were especially head over heels for this dress and print, which were very reminiscent of our Emilia collection.

 

We hope you have enjoyed our Moody Monday today! We love finding these little bits of weekly inspiration, and hope you enjoy them as much as we do. Have a marvelous day!
