when I’m searching for a new read, I admit I’ll pick up a book because the cover is artistic and inviting. if you can’t resist a pretty cover either, you’ll enjoy browsing the book cover archive as much as I do.

operation
I’m really into parts and specimen these days. I love this new illustration by Anna Melcon. it reminds me of a little project I’ve been working on.

mix it up
my wardrobe consists of lots of neutral solids, splashed with very few bright colors and even less patterns or prints. one thing I always say I’m going to do is mix in a few prints into my closet, then I always revert back to a solid color. this outfit is fantastic and so inspiring. such a subtle yet a wonderful mix of patterns and colors and something I aspire to put together. plus, I really want her shoes.

texture studies
um, so remember these adorable shoes? of course you do. I already bought a new purse, but damn…. these purses are prefect. wouldn’t every one of them look amazing with a cute pair of ruffled flats? I’m loving everything from the texture study.

for you, friday the 13th.
a little somethin’ just for fun this Valentine’s day, ala semi Friday the 13th style, from part of a little project I’m working on.
by the way, thanks for all of your input on the patterns I designed. I know that they were pretty simple, but that’s kind of what I’m going for. but that’s from another project in the works that I promise to tell you about soon.
