Hi everyone!

Happy Monday! We hope you all had a fantastic weekend, and a wonderful Father’s Day! We are hosting our Facebook Neon & On FQ Bundle Giveaway for a couple more days…so be sure to enter HERE if you haven’t yet! :)

It’s time to start off this week with our Moody Monday! Today we are inspiring you with our Singin’ the Blues by Jackie McFee Collection!! Singin’ the Blues, as the name suggests, is a spectacular collection encompassing different shades of blue. The vibrant mix of cobalt blue, topaz, and mint colors reminds us of the ocean…we could definitely imagine a beach vacation somewhere near the Mediterranean Sea with these blue hues, and the stunning chevron, dot, medallion, and lattice designs. But if you can’t whisk yourself away to a beach vacation right now, you can create that same feel with a Mediterranean-inspired room. Imagine ocean-inspired curtains, elegant chevron pillows, and a matching modern, blue-hued quilt! Who really needs a getaway now…right? :) See the full collection here!

We love getting inspired by the runway trends for the upcoming season! One show that particularly is reminiscent of our Singin’ the Blues Collection is that of Chloe‘s Spring RTW line. The whole Chloe collection reminds us of a tropical, Mediterranean vacation…and the essentials you’d want to pack! Think loose, but still sleek, silhouettes in earthy tones, white, and blues in beautiful draping and flowy materials. So so pretty!

We especially adore this one here, as well as this one, which reminds us of Singin’ the Blues in both color palette and design. You can check out the full Chloe RTW Spring 2014 collection here!

We hope you have enjoyed this week’s Moody Monday! Let us know what some of your favorite Spring/Summer 2014 trends are. Have a wonderful day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone!

Happy Tuesday!! We hope everyone is having a great start to the week. It’s Father’s Day this weekend!! It’s the day to celebrate the man who has always been there for us, no matter what. And this includes (but is not limited to!) killing spiders, shoveling the snow in -30 C weather, making us his famous spaghetti when mom was sick, miraculously fixing that hairdryer that you thought you broke, and loving us unconditionally. We appreciate everything that you do for us, Dads – thank you for everything! :)

What better way to show your dad how much he means to you by making something from the heart. We have an awesome Passport Cover Tutorial for this week’s How To’s Day that would be the perfect gift for that inspiring man in your life. This sleek passport cover is such an essential for any avid traveler – there is nothing worse than rummaging through your things while at the airport trying to find your passport. As if airports weren’t stressful enough! With our cover, your passport will be protected…and with the pretty fabric, easy to find! The elastic band adds extra security, so you can slip your airline ticket and other essentials inside too. And with the inner pockets, you can hide away extra money or cards. We especially love our passport cover with our navy and tan prints from Paisley Please; stylish but neutral enough for a man.

Hi everyone!

Happy Tuesday! We hope you are all having a lovely day. Unfortunately, we’ve been getting some pretty yucky and muggy weather here as of late. We were surprised with a heavy downfall this morning, and some hail (yes, hail!) in some parts of the city this weekend. Let’s hope June will bring some more sunshine!!

To brighten up a gloomy day, we are here with our weekly How To’s Day! And this is a fun one, with colors that will surely brighten up any rainy day. And that is just what we need! Today we are sharing our Foldover Wedding Clutch Tutorial, featuring our Neon & On by Jackie McFee collection. With Summer approaching, it also means that party and wedding season are here too! And we couldn’t be any more excited!! Gorgeous floral arrangements, stunning gowns, delicious food, and heartwarming nuptials…we LOVE it all!  Plus, who wouldn’t want a reason to wear a cocktail dress and pretty accessories? :)

Our foldover wedding clutch is the perfect compliment to an even more perfect day!! This beautiful clutch would be a wonderful gift to show your loving bridesmaids how much they mean to you, or an added accessory to hold all your wedding day essentials! It would be great for a night out with the girlfriends or as a makeup/essentials pouch too. We adore the pop of color with our Neon & On by Jackie McFee collection; plus the suede or leather section is such a stylish detail!
