Was browsing Moda Operandi when I stumbled upon this amazing Charlotte Olympia clutch. I can’t get enough of this cute and quirky brand!

Hello all! It has been a while… My sincerest apologies for the lack of updates. I think sometimes when you are so focused on making the perfect post you forget that when blogging, most importantly of all, you need to just keep posting. I think I’ve sat on this post for about two weeks now… 

While drawing this I thought about what form and function is and how these two subjects can greatly alter fashion and its perceptions. Take for example, the clutch. The fact that a woman would forego a convenient strap on her carryall pretty much sums up the importance of looks to some people. On a related note, I think that is also the fun in fashion illustration. The fact that you can forego any logic and rules and create things that is just absolutely out there without any regards to comfort. Ah, freedom in its own way…

POW POW POW! Are you hurt yet? OK, probably not since flowers don’t really do much to hurt someone. Maybe poisonous flowers? Do those exist? Flowers however, make for a great, never dying fashion trend. Seriously, this shit will never be out of style! To me what’s lovely about these floral trends is how you mix them up. Feminine and flirty a la Dior? Or would you rather compliment it with a pair of combat boots? I stumbled upon these floral triangle tops on Etsy and I was smitten.

I saw the pair of lambskin open toe short boots with its chain detail on display at a consignment store on 3rd and La Cienega. I jumped in and inquired of its size.

36.

It was fate.

Chanel boots with For Love and Lemons Roosevelt dress.

I am absolutely in love with American Apparel’s Tank dress. If you are a lazy dresser, this dress is a dream come true. I love pairing the look with pointed shoes.

Checkers and Margiela.

I am absolutely smitten with these clear boots by MM6. Unfortunately as usual, real life prefers that I not be extremely frugal with my money what with especially I just moved to a new place at the moment… But maybe you other lucky girls can treat yourself something nice and be a modern day Cinderella? One with a 9-5 job and disposable income that is…

Ready Your Body for Swimwear

OK, OK. For the sake of not seeming like a total B, I meant ready your body as in like, just be damn ready! I am not saying you should try to lose weight to conform to fashion’s beauty standards although if that is what you are into that is cool too! Look, just do whatever you want, OK… Oh god, I think I’m projecting… I mean seriously though, I am in LOVE with the illustrated bikini in the middle but DAMN do I want the rocking body to match with it.

Into The Grid

So how late am I? Bah, I don’t care. I absolutely fell in love with the grid trend, especially with the oh-so-popular J. W. Anderson sweater that is no longer available. Luckily for the less financially blessed folks, trends always eventually trickle down to more tangible reach. Here are some of my favorites:

Spotted this morning at Venice Grind. Can you tell I’m a huge lover of this cool casual look that SoCal girls pull off so amazingly?
