Music that inspires. Believe the hype, they are that good.
BTS jellybeans
Link to BTS shoot for new blog. Shot by my dear friend in my lovely lil loft. I have fun playing dress even if it looks like I don’t.
Trompe L’oeil!
Incorporating tactile illusions in footwear designs is trending in a major way for F/W 14 with this Trompe L’oeil twist. The designs merge leggings and socks into the upper design itself, creating the appearance of separate pieces. I really love this design element because it brings out a playful, inner child vibe.
I like to piece together my blue suede shoe design with taupe fishnet or ruffle polka dot socks when playing with this trend.
I like piecing together this look with a floral print romper and coral accessories.
Thanks for taking a peek <3
More Metallics!
Loving this trend I’m seeing of metallics in different materials, components and finishes! I love combining lucite heel pieces with classic solid, primary color uppers in a shoe design, and topping that look with trending pop colors and flashy materials, like sequins and silk in wardrobe.
Below are a couple of my designs in White and Black leather with a mirror metallic lining that ties in with the chrome finish on the heel piece. Topped with a back bow with hidden elastic goring for added comfort.
Coachella
I just got back from Coachella week 1 and 2 in the desert …. I need sleep. Here are a couple shots I took from the 3 day music and art festival.
The Lumineers. Wesley inspiring the crowd.
Allen Stone. This man is brilliant.
It all starts to blur together.
