A warm day haiku:
The heat of the sun
challenges our sanity
the spray nozzle wins

Wishing everyone a warm summer weekend, if running through sprinklers is an option, I highly recommend it! The ever lovely Ricki and Kate agree!

Summer Look Book!

Watching the spring/summer runway shows is one of my favourite fashion indulgences, and S/S 2012 was one of my favourite seasons yet! The heavy influence from all things “under-the-sea” took me to a magical place where adorning yourself with sea creatures and taking fashion cues from the tide is perfectly acceptable!
I thought I would translate my favourite looks from the runway to include items you can buy in stores and fun new DIY projects to bring the runway to your own life!
For the next 4 weeks I will feature new looks, DIY projects and fun photos and videos!

I’m starting off this week with my first look inspired by ocean waves! Watery blue dresses in all shades were seen at Lela Rose, Haider Ackermann, Elie Saab and Alice & Olivia, and the fluid shapes can be totally wearable on any body type/ skin tone!

I made my super easy DIY dress in a flowy turquiose, and it’s perfect for day or night, casual or dressy, and playing around in an octopus’ garden!

Join me all week for DIY instructions, and other fun stuff!
Cheers!!
