Sunny Duluth

This past weekend I took a mini trip to Duluth, Minnesota to explore the spring scenery of the beautiful Lake Superior. Such a gorgeous day to be out and about in this small but treasureful city. ( I think I just made that word up)
Since being away from home for an extended period of time I have not been able to create anything new. Bare with me until I get back to LA for posts on my own designs. Until then I hope you enjoy the casual outfit here and the nature Minnesota has to offer.

sporty colors

I put this outfit together and really thought it was fun with the hair I did super kinky and big. Yes, it's all my real hair! No clothing was made for this post but I did do the big eccentric hair myself!

Modified Ikat

The skirt I am wearing from Target was originally a halter dress with a beaded neckline. It was beautiful at the time I got it but I fell out of love with it since wearing it a few times. So to revive my love for it I decided to chop off the top part. I didn't care for it anymore and I thought making it a skirt would give more versatility for other outfits in the end. Also I added slits to the sides for movement and an updated look.

OUTFIT: sports bra and skirt; target, top; charlotte russe, belt and bracelet; nordstrom, shoes; go jane

Printed in the Breeze

The focus for this post is the gorgeous printed cardigan. The cardigan was designed by another designer that I worked with. My part was I took the blank garment and chose this amazing sublimation print that I thought was perfect for a light over layer piece. It's made out of chiffon so I will probably be wearing it a lot this spring/summer. Ok, maybe into fall too. It's California! An awesome plus is it makes for a very stylish comfy robe to wear around the house as well!

OUTFIT: bandeau; old navy, shorts and bangel; santee alley, watch; target, bracelet; gift from thailand, wedge; citadel mall.
