Designing this modern aesthetics company branding was really interesting for me. My client had a font in mind that I hadn’t really considered for the project and I really had to get to know it and how to use it to make the logo mark we ended with. I actually really like how it turned out, another reason my clients are the best. They totally inspire me and help me move outside my design shell.

 

XOXOX,

Kirsten

Well sometimes I like to do a little style blogging as you can probably tell lately, its funny now that I am pregnant, I suddenly want to shop all of the time for me and for her. This outfit is super comfy and one of my favs for any time of year. The black leggings with the black top can go under any vest or shawl or kaftan top or dress. I found this cute boho, black and white one at H&M and thought it would add the right amount of spice to the look. For my accessories, I used some black cat eye sunglasses and double necklaces from Kate Koel jewelry (the triangle and the circle), and then added my new favourite backpack. I love how the backpack has brown straps so you can pull it in with black or brown. I’m so glad I can find comfy clothes during this pregnancy that arent terrible, its really made being pregnant much easier, especially in the summer.

our lot!

dot room | beautiful print | wood wall | white room | black diamond pendant | branch hook

I am building my first home! It is so exciting but so scary, I know I will make mistakes and do things that I may not love so I have just decided to embrace it. Because it is our first home I don’t have any experience building and therefore I am asking everyone for advice. If you have any, feel free to share cause I need all that I can get.

In making decisions, I of course turn to pinterest and then I am overwhelmed! Haha but I have managed to start sorting things into color palettes and styles that I would like to use. You will be seeing a bunch from me in the next few months. I loved this particular one because it is deep and moody but very clean and totally me. I have noticed that contrast is an important point in decor. Everything has been white for so long, and that is what I love, but the dark contrasting accent walls and decor are making their way back into interior design. I am going to do a charcoal accent wall amongst my white walls to bring some simple drama to our home.

I love this color palette so much that I made you a little swatch image to pin. I also used one of my favourite new fonts called finlek, its on sale right now for $19 and is really fun to use. I am sure you have noticed how everything has gone from perfect sway calligraphy to brushy textured bold type. I love it all, its so fun to see how people use it. My challenge to you is to put use this in some way, either an outfit or a DIY project or whatever your little heart desires. Good luck!

tablecloth / striped pillow / docs (on sale) / dress / fabric / wallpaper

I can’t help but notice two colors standing out so much this season, black and yellow. I used to think people looked like bumble bees when they mixed the colors but times have changed and now I love the two. Mustard with charcoal gray or black looks amazing. I am especially loving it in home decor items like pillows, throws and accessories, not to mention how stinkin cute those Docs are in yellow!
