Hello- Kitty!

I made this little bag from Hello Kitty Duck Tape. 

It was super easy and fun!

I added a long gold chain I had from an old necklace and taped it to the inside of the bag.

If you guys are interested in one let me know.

They can be made with any design, color, shape and size!

Water color Illustration

My latest Illustration assignment was to create a fashion illustration inspired by an illustrators style you like. 

I knew I wanted to do something with water colors since I haven't used them for illustrations before. I like the looseness watercolors give an illustration. 

This is not how I usually do my illustrations so it was nice to get out of my comfort zone. 

This illustration style is inspired by Esther Bayer whom I found online.

Art Deco

Miami is known for a rich history in Art Deco. 

This style lives on today in classic parts of Miami Such as Miami Beach.

Art Deco; noun-

a style of decorative art developed originally in 
the 1920s with a revival in the 1960s, marked chiefly by geometric motifs, curvilinear forms, sharply defined outlines, often bold colors, and the use of synthetic materials, as plastics.

My school had a fashion design competition where students made and designed a garment inspired by the classic looks of art deco. 

They presented their work during Art Deco weekends second annual fashion show. 

I was asked to model for the show on Ocean Drive and had so much fun! I wore a fellow students work. She is very talented.  

Rosie the Riveter

Just a photo shoot I did for fun. 

Inspired by Rosie the Riveter and the 40's 50's era. 

I got this idea from a DIY post on outsapop.com

Bike Ride

Today is a beautiful day for a bike ride. 

I took my camera and got some pretty shots of the water and a few birds. 

Casual grey leggings paired with a cropped top and jean jacket.
This look is perfect for a casual day.

Clear jelly shoes are a great alternative to regular flats or sneakers. 

Jean Jacket: Moon Sister
Cropped top: Hollister
Jelly shoes: Rack Room

Birds of a Feather

Today I went on a shopping trip to Ikea. I cant wait to show you guys what I bought for my new apartment once it is set up! I'm loving tights right now, they are such a fun trend. Tights like these can spice up an outfit or wear a basic black for a classic look. 

Tights tip: if you want an edgy look you can DIY by buying basic black tights and purposely making random runs in them.

When wearing bold tights with designs in them, pair with solid colors so its not too much going on.
