Hoop dreams

Image
 I'm not a big jewelry person. In fact, I don't even wear my wedding ring. (Wut!?!?! It's ok...my hubby doesn't either and we honestly have never worn them, except the first few years we were married, I think.) Anyhoo, lately though, I've been wearing earrings. Hoop earrings, to be more specific. I am obsessed with them! These are just some cheap ones I got from Walmart but I love them. 3 pairs for $7!! Bwahaha! And so, I've been looking around, and here are some expensive ones I really like and can drool over:) Elsa Perretti Diamond Hoop Earrings from Tiffany's PS  You can see me wearing earrings in this video I did for my art channel:) Are you a jewelry person? What do you prefer? Necklaces? Earrings? Rings?

Obsession #63- Something different

 I'm not usually known for wearing these kinds of outfits regularly, but I have been wanting these looks lately. What are you obsessing over lately?

Obsession #62: the Brixton

 Every fall/winter, there's a pair of boots I seem to covet but have no intention of buying (hahaha). This season, it's the Brixton leather boots from Steve Madden. I also wouldn't mind the Astor. image from stevemadden.ca Hey Steve Madden peeps! If you ever see this post, please send a pair...or two! :D What are you coveting this season?

Obsession #61- white coats and shoes

 Not usually fond of wearing white because I'm the clumsiest person, but man....I am just digging white/cream stuff lately! trying on this white oversized UNIQLO coat image from moonboot.com (The Icon Low Cream Nylon Boots) My kids say hi:D Are you a fan of white clothing/accessories?

Obsession #60- These boots!!!

Obsession #59- Coats

Image
 Well, it's starting to get colder here in our part of the world. Even though I'm more of a summer girl, one thing I do like about fall/winter is the being able to wear coats:) Ones I recently tried: Sam Edelman coat at The Bay from UNIQLO Honestly, I probably won't be buying a new one for this season as I love the Calvin Klein one I got last year, but I am kinda itching to sew one, so who knows... Are you thinking of a new purchase for this fall/winter season?

Obsession #56

Image
 Guys, I am dying to have these two items.... images from isabelmarant.com Isabel Marant Leyane boots Isabel Marant Yenky bag I would literally never take these shoes off if I ever get them, and that bag....super cute, right? What have you been wanting lately?

Obsession #55

Image
 Soooo...if you guys saw my last post, you know that I've been watching a lot of Nordic Noir stuff lately. What does that mean? Well...it means that now, I'm obsessing over sweaters because most of these shows have awesome knitwear.  The good thing is that I knit. The bad thing is that it's almost summer here, sweaters are not the fastest pieces to make, and the yarn (if you want the good stuff) costs a lot of money. Sigh.... Anyhoo, here are some "looks" I've been obsessing over lately. image from gudrungudrun.com Gansey (image from flamboroughmanor.co.uk) Kátir Karlar sweater (image from icelandicstore.is) Hulda Icelandic sweater (image from icewear.is) image from mariewallin.com Inspiration: the show Trapped (image from pferd-kultur.de) What is your obsession lately? PS Happy Victoria Day to my fellow Canadians!

Obsession #53

Image
 I've been obsessing lately over fashion illustration lately, in particular the work of Anna Kiper.  Anna Kiper's awesome book Fashion Illustration I've had her book since 2018, and even did a flip through of it on my YouTube channel. Lately, though, her work has been an obsession, you guys. You can see for yourself why I love it soooo much. One of my fave pages. Anna Kiper's work is just sublime. She really is such an inspiration. Here is a page from my art journal page, with a drawing I did inspired by her. (PS Sorry for the slightly blurry photos. They looked fine on my phone...sigh....) What are you obsessing over lately?
