Hi everyone!

 

 

 

Happy Monday everyone! We hope you are all having a beautiful start to the week. We are heading into the week of love…Valentine’s Day is already this coming Friday! Get ready for LOTS of Valentine’s Day inspired posts coming your way this week. As well, we are hosting our Betty Boop FQ bundle Giveaway on our blog which ends this Wednesday. ♥

 

To start off this week, it’s time for a little Moody Monday inspiration! Today we are sharing our Let’s Go by Andrea Turk for Cinnamon Joe Studio Collection. Let’s Go is a woodsy and warm collection, decorated in fall-inspired hues of orange, turquoise, rust, and grey.

 

This collection features a mix of pretty feathers, mountains, foxes, teepees, and raccoons…all the things to remind you of the wonders of the outside. This collection is rustic and cozy, making you want to go outside and explore the great outdoors! Imagine how adorable your little one would be sporting a frilly dress or bowtie in our Let’s Go collection? Add a couple of cozy blankets, a warm bonfire, and S’mores…and you’ve got yourself the ultimate camping trip!

Fall is still a whiles away (we are still in Winter, dreaming of Spring hehe), but our Let’s Go collection reminds us of those brisk and cozy days. One upcoming autumn collection we’re inspired by is Missoni’s RTW Fall Collection. This collection is a wonderful display of hues of grey, orange, and green. The colors are still vibrant, but keep in the theme of fall time appropriate with added volume, cashmere, and kimono-style jackets. Layering is key during the cooler months, and all of the pieces shown in Missoni’s collection are perfect for that. The colors and mood of this collection remind us of our Let’s Go by Andrea Turk for Cinnamon Joe Studio collection. You can see the full Missoni collection here!

 

We hope you have been inspired by today’s Moody Monday! We are looking forward to a love-filled week. Have a great day!

Hi everyone!

 

 

 

Happy Monday everyone! We hope you are all having a wonderful day. Welcome sweet treats, love notes, and heart-shaped {everything}….here’s to a fabulous February!! ♥

 

To start off this new month, and to begin the week, we’ve got another Moody Monday for you. A new month calls for new beginnings and fresh starts, inspiring us for today’s blog post. Today we are inspiring you with our Mint Condition by Jackie McFee moodboard. Mint Condition is a lovely mix of cool tones, the color leads being mint and grey.

 

This collection is soft, crisp, and serene…the perfect compliment to a house by the beach or lake (or one with a complementary theme…because alas, not everyone has the luxury of living by the water). The contiguous theme of mint and grey in this collection follows pretty designs of hexagons, dots, chevrons, and posies. This collection would make a stunning Spring dress, couch covers, or evening clutch – and everything else in between! You can check out the full collection here.

In keeping with the air of softness and prettiness, we’re very much inspired by Christopher Kane’s Spring 2014 RTW Collection today. Kane’s recent collection was an aura of black, lavender, and mint green however it was the mint green outfits that particularly stood out to us. The whole collection was very lady-like and feminine with the midi-length skirts, lace details, floral prints, and muted hues.

 

Even so, the fun cut-outs and sheer panels called for a more modern flair to the collection that we adored! The minty-hued outfits were very reminiscent of the elegant and classic vibe from our Mint Condition collection, very fresh and perfect for the upcoming Spring season. You can check out the full collection here! We hope you enjoyed today’s blog post and have been inspired. Until next time!

Hi everyone!

 

 

 

Happy Monday! How was everyone’s weekend? The weather here was pretty mild, but the snow started to come down last night and it is officially a blizzard out there. We definitely have had our share of a winter wonderland here now. Very cold, very windy, and very white! :) Oh – have you entered our Iconic Giveaway yet? Let us know what you think is the most iconic, hopeless romantic moment to enter!

 

To start off this week, we’ve got our Moody Monday for you all. Today we are sharing with your our Fairyville by Heather Rosas moodboard. We could use a little sprinkle of magic dust from the weather fairy!

 

Our Fairyville collection is absolutely adorable – a super sweet, frilly, and girly fabric collection full of magic and imagination. This collection features little fairies living in their tree and apple houses, amongst their animal friends. Oh, how darling right?

 

The colors are pastel and soft – a mix of delightful greens, pinks, and yellows – making the collection very pretty and airy. It would be the perfect collection for a girl-themed, whimsical room or for the loveliest dress for your fairy-in-training! Check out the full collection here. As well, check out our new Fat Quarter Bundles on our website, which includes our Fairyville collection! :)

One trend that will be especially big this coming Spring 2014 is anything whimsical, whether it be bold floral prints or fluttery tulle skirts, that we drew from inspiration for this week’s Moody Monday. A collection that we were gravitated towards was Mary Katrantzou’s Spring 2014 Collection. There was a beautiful mix of earthy & extravagant patterns and silhouettes from this collection, but we especially adored the splashes of floral color, ruffles, and contemporary silhouettes.

 

Each of the dresses gave a very ethereal and pretty feel, while still being modern in its fit and style. If a fairy were living here in modern times, these dresses would definitely be what she would wear. Yes, we believe!! You can check out all the fantastical dresses here. Thank you so much for reading today’s post, and we hope you have been inspired :)

Hi everyone!

 

 

 

Happy Monday! We hope everyone had a fantastic weekend. Sending you all positive vibes today for a great start to the week!

 

And to kick start this week, it’s time for our Moody Monday post. Today we are inspired by our beautiful black and gold collection, Nightfall by The Camelot Design Studio! Nightfall is a black- and white-based collection, with intricate metallic gold details of dots, chevrons, houndstooth, and tassels. This collection is very reminiscent of the Great Gatsby times; it sparkles, it shines, it is just stunning!! It is the perfect collection for anyone looking a bit of extra dazzle in their wardrobe or home – this metallic gold printed fabric collection will not disappoint!

One fashion collection that emphasizes our stunning black and gold collection is that of Dries Van Noten’s Spring 2014 line. The collection includes some colour with its muted floral prints, but it is the cream, black, and gold accents that greatly stand out. The gold ruffles, embossments, and textures pop against its black and cream backgrounds making each clothing piece all the more elegant, rich, and like works of art.

 

What makes this collection exceptionally beautiful is the great attention to detail, even with the limited color palette, that instead chooses to focus of texture and shape which reminds us of our Nightfall fabric designs. Pops of gold are definitely in, and metallic will be on-trend for the upcoming Spring 2014 season! You can see Drie Van Noten’s exquisite collection here.

 

We hope you have been inspired by today’s Moody Monday! Have a great day everyone :)

Hi everyone!

 

 

 

Happy Monday! We hope everyone is having a great start to the week. How was everyone’s weekend? We can’t believe we are already almost mid into January , but 2014 has been pretty lovely so far! PS: Have you entered our Pinterest Fabric Giveaway yet? Enter here by repinning our Bumper-2-Bumper Giveaway image! :)

 

The weather has been changing pretty ferociously, from hot to cold and gloomy to sunny. And with the ever-changing influx in weather comes lots of sniffles and runny noses. Alas, the season of colds is among us. Getting sick means the need for lots of vitamin C, which can be found in yummy fruits such as oranges, apples, and strawberries. The thought of delectable fruits have inspired today’s Moody Monday post. Today we are inspiring you with our Fruit Stand by Jane Farnham collection.

Fruit Stand is a beautiful collection, with a very warm and home-y feel. The wonderful hues of purples, chartreuse, coral, and teal make for a very cozy palette – the perfect collection for all your kitchen decor needs! This collection would make lovely curtain, tablecloth, apron, and cloth napkins for a modern country, farmhouse, or cottage feel.

 

Better Homes and Gardens always posts such incredible interior design ideas for the home, and we are always inspired. One section that we particularly love is their kitchen decor. Looking at all the dream kitchens make us long for our own fabulous and bright kitchen, but for now looking will have to suffice. Their country and cottage kitchen sections are the perfect backdrops for our Fruit Stand collection – so fun, fresh, and cozy! You can take a look here for all their kitchen inspirations.

 

We hope you have enjoyed today’s post. And if you are also stifling a cold today: keep warm, drink lots of honey tea, and get your share of some vitamin C! Have a great day everyone.
