Welcome!

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday! We hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. It was Spring Forward yesterday, so although we will get the benefit of having more sunshine throughout the day…getting up to having lost an hour on Sunday was definitely not fun. Alas, this only means that Spring is coming soon! :)

Let’s start off this week with our Moody Monday! Today we are inspiring you with our Fox Friends by Allison Cole collection, from Winter 2014. Fox Friends is another one of our kid-friendly, novelty collections that we just absolutely adore!! The main hues in Fox Friends are pink, mint, red, and brown creating a very sweet and ethereal feel to the collection. The adorable foxes, friendly clouds, and gentle birds make this a very happy and quirky collection, perfect for all the tiny adventurers you know! Fox Friends would make the prettiest dresses and skirts, or a woodsy themed bedroom! Imagine some lovely curtains, pillows, or girly quilt with our Fox Friends collection…oh how cute right?!! You can check out the full collection here!

One fashion collection that is inspiring us this week is Calvin Klein’s  Spring 2014 RTW collection. The colors in his latest collection are soft and subtle, but with tiny splashes of color that make a statement. The main color palette of this collection is green hues, pinks, creams, and browns. The mixture of these soft colors are very springtime and vacation appropriate, with a very relaxed and beach-y feel.

We especially love this outfit, as well as this one and this one as they especially encapsulate the mood of Fox Friends. The feel of this collection and choices in hues reminds us of our Fox Friends by Allison Cole color palette. You can check out the full collection here.

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday! We hope everyone is having a wonderful start to the week. It’s officially March, and we are very excited for Spring to arrive. That means warmer breezes, luscious greenery, and pretty flowers…okay, Mother Nature? :) Meanwhile, St Patrick’s Day is coming up and we’re conjuring up some fun and lucky things in the office.

Today is Moody Monday on the blog and we’re here to inspire you! This week we are showcasing our What’s Cookin’ by Allison Cole collection. This is a very vibrant and vivacious collection, with a mixture of tomato red, dark grey, mustard, and blues. Kitchen tools, vegetables, and flora combine together to make this collection very kitsy and eclectic. Mushrooms, tomatoes, carrots…this collection is making us hungry too! It is the perfect collection for a modern kitchen – imagine tea towels, aprons, and a little one’s chef hat with our What’s Cookin’ by Allison Cole collection! Oh so much fun, right? :)

The fashion scene is always two steps ahead of its time, and the colors in What’s Cookin’ are perfectly in tune with autumn. One collection that particularly sparks some contrast is Manish Arora’s stunning collection. This RTW Fall/Winter 2013-2014 collection enthuses rich hues of that greatly resembles What’s Cookin’. The richness of the colors of blues, yellow, red, and grey are stunning, along with the amazing embellishments of each piece. Each outfit is very much a work of art with jewelled collars, exquisite prints, and wonder uses of color. Manish Arora’s collection is luxurious, just as a woman should feel wearing any of these pieces. You can check out the full collection here.

Thank you so much for reading this week’s Moody Monday. We hope you were inspired! Have a great day! :)
