COLLEGE BOUND

Hey There! Wow its been like a month! Sorry for the hiatus. The stresses of college were in full force. But no need to worry... I'm back and reporting all of the trendy and hot fashion here in Madison! It will be a fun year of fashion for sure since I'll be around fashionistas from around the country. Well here I am outside of my lovely dorm, Sullivan! (Trust me, it really isn't that lovely but I'll try to make the most of it.)  Can't wait to share all of the fun and exciting things here at Madison over the next year! Hope you'll enjoy the wild ride as much as I do!

ROYAL COLORS

I think this chair is phenomenal. Completely opposite of my normal taste which is strictly black and white with lots of hot pink but I think this is so cool. If Alice in Wonderland, Dr. Seuss and Picasso had a baby this armchair would be it. It's a fabulous piece until you look at the price tag... over $13,000. A bit ridiculous I think.

BOMBSHELL

How absolutely gorgeous is this babe I get to call my cousin? Um... freaking gorgeous! This soon-to-be model, Maggie, definitely has an unknown talent. I barely had to do anything and the photos turned out phenomenal. She needs to move in with me so I can photograph her everyday. Talk about model as muse...

THE SKETCHBOOK DIARIES

During my portfolio crunch time I was sketching, sketching, sketching like crazy! Here are my three favorite. The first was a mashup sketch of all my lovely perfume bottles, the second was a rendering of my pretty painted toenails and the last was an ink study with my favorite quote of all time from the best book of all time, The Great Gatsby. Therefore, go sketch your little brains away!

DAYS OF OLD

Here are some candid shots from last summer. I loved this outfit and was obsessed with the polka dot tank top after I saw Emma Stone clad in polka dots on the cover of ELLE. Simply polka dot chic.

SPEED DEMON

I stumbled upon these exotic Lamborghini heels the other day and knew I had to share them. I think they are to die for. Unfortunately, they are only a concept generated on the computer by Tonino Lamborghini modeled after the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggra. The actual heel does exist... yet. Oh but when they do I want a pair and maybe a matching Lamborghini to go with. ;)

MY BUDDY ROY

I like to think of this blog as being more of a design blog rather than a fashion blog. The design aspect and process is what interests me most so I think it is only appropriate I share some of my inspiration. Perhaps one of my favorite artists, Roy Lichtenstein holds a special place in my heart. I've loved him since day one and his art work continues to inspire me. The second picture from the top is my rendition of the first picture done in acrylic paint. It is such a powerful image and so much is said just by the one image. It is true. A picture is worth a thousand words.
