My Newest Favorite Etsy Shop: Mackenzie Mode

 I just came across this shop in one of the latest Etsy finds newsletters. Mackenzie Mode 's delightful frocks and matching hats are preaching to the choir of my girlish fantasies! With amazing photography, vibrant colors, and whimiscal themes, this Australian fashion designers dresses become a feast for the eyes. I highly recommend a trip to her website for an eyeful of inspiration.

RESORT 2010: DVF

Diane Von Furstenberg is counting on some fun in the sun! Let's face it, sometimes it's nice to take a break from all the world's bad news. The oversized bow hats are silly and girly, but I like the relaxed flirtatious vibe. Super fun brights, vintage inspired swimwear, and gorgeous cocktail dresses feel right for this cruel summer...

Splatter Paint Party

Here is my latest dress...hot off the sewing machine! I found this fabric at an amazing local thrift store last year (which has since closed-dammit!) and I have been holding on to it -waiting for the inspiration to hit. Well- it finally did (a la Lanvin) and when the moment is right you have to strike! I'm really liking the way it turned out and I am already planning the next dress in a series...along with a laundry list of other ideas that need to be tried out. Do you love it? Tell me what you think...
