Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a lovely weekend. To all our Americans, hope you had an amazing 4th of July weekend! :)

Starting off our week with our Moody Monday! Today we are featuring our Skylanders Collection by the Camelot Design Studio. Skylanders is an interactive video game series that brings “toys to life”. Characters based on eight elemental categories – earth, magic, air, fire, water, life, teach, and undead – go through different adventures in the land of Skylands to defend their world from varying threats. The ultimate goal is protect the world of Skylands from “Kaos”, as the Skylanders want to maintain peace & balance in their world. Good over evil – very cool theme for a game, we think. Three additional series have since been introduced, as well as three new elements known as the Trap team (kaos, light, and dark). Our Skylanders Collection is a representation of the game that many gamers enjoy – from the beloved Skylanders characters to the bright blues & yellows, this is a really fun collection!

Diane Von Furstenberg’s Spring 2013 collection was elegant and classy, just as the designer herself. Splashes of blues and orange made this collection feel like summertime, like sipping on a orange julep by the water. There was a wonderful flow to every outfit, with lightweight fabrics of silk and chiffon to drape around the models. But of course, even with a summer-inspired collection, there was an effortless elegance and femininity to each piece. And of course, we can’t forget her infamous wrap dresses! We especially loved this jumpsuit, that was powerful and gorgeous, especially with the metallic belt. Another stunning collection from DVF!

We hope you have enjoyed today’s Moody Monday! We’d love to know what summer trends you are excited about. Any fun colours you’re excited to wear? Let us know. Have a relaxing rest of the day!

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!
