Welcome!

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday everyone! We hope you are all having a wonderful day. Welcome sweet treats, love notes, and heart-shaped {everything}….here’s to a fabulous February!! ♥

To start off this new month, and to begin the week, we’ve got another Moody Monday for you. A new month calls for new beginnings and fresh starts, inspiring us for today’s blog post. Today we are inspiring you with our Mint Condition by Jackie McFee moodboard. Mint Condition is a lovely mix of cool tones, the color leads being mint and grey.

This collection is soft, crisp, and serene…the perfect compliment to a house by the beach or lake (or one with a complementary theme…because alas, not everyone has the luxury of living by the water). The contiguous theme of mint and grey in this collection follows pretty designs of hexagons, dots, chevrons, and posies. This collection would make a stunning Spring dress, couch covers, or evening clutch – and everything else in between! You can check out the full collection here.

In keeping with the air of softness and prettiness, we’re very much inspired by Christopher Kane’s Spring 2014 RTW Collection today. Kane’s recent collection was an aura of black, lavender, and mint green however it was the mint green outfits that particularly stood out to us. The whole collection was very lady-like and feminine with the midi-length skirts, lace details, floral prints, and muted hues.

Even so, the fun cut-outs and sheer panels called for a more modern flair to the collection that we adored! The minty-hued outfits were very reminiscent of the elegant and classic vibe from our Mint Condition collection, very fresh and perfect for the upcoming Spring season. You can check out the full collection here! We hope you enjoyed today’s blog post and have been inspired. Until next time!

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday! Sending everyone positive vibes to a great start to the week :) Hope everyone had a fantastic weekend. The weather here has been slightly gloomy, and now with the holidays officially over, we’re here to share a bit of brightness with today’s Moody Monday. Today we are inspiring you with our Bright Now by Jackie McFee moodboard!

Bright Now by Jackie McFee is a festive collection of vibrant, strong, and yes, bright colors – fun hues of pink, yellow, and blue. This is an especially on-trend collection with the surprising leopard print, bold floral, and chevron patterns. This would be the perfect collection for a flirty skirt to add to your wardrobe or to vamp up any stylish girl’s room! Our Bright Now collection is youthful, playful, and fierce. You can check out the full collection here!

With the weather still being super chilly here (ie. parka weather!), we were in need of something vivacious to liven up the day. And considering a hot beach vacation is not in the near future for us, our Bright Now by Jackie McFee moodboard is just that perfect inspiration for today. We hope you enjoyed our Moody Monday and have been inspired, and we hope you have a great rest of the day!

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday! Guess what?! Today is officially…Christmas Eve Eve! Wow, where did the time go! We hope everyone has been enjoying the holidays. Remember that even through the hustle-and-bustle of preparing for the holidays, you take the time to also relax and enjoy the beautiful season. If you still have some last minute preparations to do, we hope today’s blog post will inspire you!

Today is another Moody Monday! We are sharing with you our Paisley Please by Jackie McFee moodboard with you all today. As the name implies, Paisley Please is a stunning collection of paisley prints, florals, stripes, and polka dots in a swirl of purple, orange, and navy hues. It is very modern, yet sophisticated design palette that would be fantastic for any young woman’s home decor or apparel projects! Think duvet covers, curtains, bags, tea dresses, and more in rich orange and violet colors…the possibilities are endless! Take a look at our moodboard below for even more inspiration:

Time for some fashion inspiration! We are feeling inspired by the warm hues in Paisley Please by Jackie McFee, and reminds of a similar color palette found in Rag & Bone’s Fall 2013 RTW collection. Rag & Bone’s collection is a multitude of rich, fall colors that are coordinated in outfits perfectly. We adore the outfits with mixes of purple and orange especially, and it reminds of our Paisley Please color scheme. The collection is cool and relaxed, and correlates in the same youthfulness as Paisley Please. To see the full collection, click here.

We hope we have inspired you with today’s Moody Monday. We will still be posting daily during the holidays, so check back for more tomorrow. Happy Holidays everyone!
