Video alert: Some art stuff

Happy Friday, everyone! I thought I'd do something different and post a video of me doing a quick flip through of two art books I've been loving lately. It's short...only about 4 minutes:D


Enjoy:)

Remember when adult coloring books was a thing a year ago? I know these are art books, but I'd love to color every single thing in that fashion illustrations book.

Loving your video! I finally got to hear your voice!!! Of course I love both book, The Jan Davenport one was my favorite. The eyes speak to my soul, I’ve always liked eyes. I was obsessed with them when I attended art school.

Man I wish I could draw like that too Emmy. I adore fashion sketches, mainly for those beautiful silhouettes they draw up like they're simply writing the alphabet

Emmy, I loved hearing your voice! Two great books. I've always been into fashion illustrations. I think they're so pretty. The shading, colors and overall aesthetic. I'm really loving the Jane Davenport Faces book. They seem so real. Like you can pierce their eyes and tell how they're feeling. Love the coloring of their skin & hair. Such realness.

Express @ The Fairview Mall

Image
Hubby, myself and the little one decided to go to Fairview Mall today while the boys were in school. What was happening there, you might ask? Why...the opening day of Express , of course. To be honest, I thought they had already opened. It was just perfect timing, I guess. This is their first store in Canada, and I'm really glad they picked Fairview coz it's very accessible where I live:P I've shopped in Express before, specifically the one in Buffalo (New York) and I really like their stuff. They always have a great collection season after season, and the prices are mostly reasonable. Here are some pics I took with the phone. Really love their sequined jackets! The layout is pretty good and the store size is quite substantial. The fall collection is TDF. I didn't take a pic of this killer red suit that they have, but trust me when I say it is very very nice. I would have gotten it, but it really would have just sat in my closet, and it was out of my budg...

Losing my mojo

Image
 I've been having a hard time getting motivated to post anything at all these days. I've deleted X on my phone, and am on Bluesky now, but even then, I don't really post much there. (I've stopped posting on Instagram and Facebook years ago, and don't have a TikTok/) Even having a hard time posting consistently on my Art YouTube channel.  I do have a small Catholic YouTube channel, and another small  "fish" channel (and I use that term lightly coz I mostly post random stuff about our shubunkin goldfishes), but even then, these days, I just want to go "off the grid" :( That is all.

The black coat

Image
 I mentioned in this post  how I've been trying to revamp my wardrobe because of how much I loved Song Hye Kyo's clothes in the show The Glory (thank you to my blogger friend Rowena again for recommending this show!) Slowly....slowly....I am trying. I will probably never get rid completely of all my colourful and worn clothes, but it's really been a game changer changing my style.  Here's the new addition to my closet, inspired by SHK. I've been looking for a black coat for awhile and finally found it! Zara oversized coat LOLZ....excuse the RBF. This was me trying it in the store before buying. Was really debating as I'm trying not to spend so much, but this coat was reasonably priced, and it the last of my size! What's a girl to do? Who has been your style inspo lately?
