A little black and white

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.

Maroon in the Summer

This outfit is one of my favs lately, here unhealthy its super comfortable and its totally summer even though its still chilly here. I am 19 weeks pregnant now and finding clothes that get me through the weird inbetween stage has been alot harder than I thought. This top is flowy and free, medications its makes me feel like a flower child cruisin coachella so of course I wear it all of the time. The jeans from H&M are super comfy, I bought a bigger size so they would be looser in the waiste with some room to grow this summer. I love how they have holes but only in the knees and they are great to roll or leave straight at the bottom.

The accessories were fun to pick out too. I chose what may seem more like a fall color but I wanted to use it in a summery way. The maroon bag by La Pionera matched with a floppy hat and a pair of round tortoise shell sunglasses pulled in some texture and color to the look. And lastly the shoes, I loooove the shoes, they are litterally the perfect height heel for me and super comfy. I got them at Clarks in the Traverse Mountain Outlets. I admit I had never heard of them but when I went looking for strappy black sandals with a heel, these were perfect, and on sale. Woohoo!

Bohemian Styled Shoot

I loooved this shoot, it was so different and the colors were so fun to work with. The idea of having a VW bus in the worlds cutest color makes for an awesome shoot. For the invitation suite, I wanted to do something a little more free and less formal. I did a fun watercolor wash and then some messy calligraphy to add to the organic feel. I wanted to add a bit of texture and detail by using a papercut made from a stencil by American Crafts in the Dear Lizzy Serendipity collection I helped design. Since I don’t scrapbook I thought I would use it in a different way by tracing it onto paper and using an exacto knife to cut out the shapes, it was really easy just very time consuming, I am planning on doing a tutorial soon.

I was so blessed to work with amazing people and it all came together perfectly, I couldn’t be happier with everything.

I just did this branding for an amazing girl with fabulous style. She is starting a daily deals site focused on fashion and helping people find good deals on unique items. Hopefully the site will be up by Christmas so you can buy all of your gifts there. Her style was simple, malady ailment fashion oriented and targeted towards online shoppers with a younger style. I had a ton of fun making the patterns for this and mixing the neutrals with the pop of orchid. The goal was to keep it classic with a tiny bit of spice.
