New Loves v.15

Well hello. It's been awhile, hasn't it? Besides being busy at work, I've been in project-mode, so I've gotten a bit behind on blogging. Which is probably a good thing, since I spend a lot of time daydreaming of the projects I want to do, and not so much time actually doing them. I have a few posts up my sleeve about what the mister and I worked on this weekend, but since they aren't fully complete yet, I'm going to save them.

Today's New Loves artist may look familiar since I recently posted a couple of her prints (see here). But that was just a taste of the cuteness Shira Sela has to offer. Every print in her Etsy shop is beautiful, and I wanted to share a few more of my faves.

Miss Jasmine and I have a little meeting tonight with one of our favorite local photographers, Angela Simpson, to discuss an editorial we are planning next month. It's hard to believe that spring and summer are just around the corner! Spring is my favorite season, so I'm pretty dang excited for this shoot. Woot!

Ta ta for now!!

New Loves v.12

'Ello. I'm back for New Loves Tuesday. (Sorry I missed last week). I apologize in advance, for this will be a quickie, but with the holidays I haven't had much time for creative research.

I, of course, found this artist on Etsy. Her name is Eva Juliet, an art director and graphic designer from Quebec, a French province of Canada. My dear late grandma (mentioned yesterday) was born and raised in Quebec, so I thought that little detail was worth adding. Eva Juliet incorporates positive messages into her prints which I really love. As we head into a new year, I think positive reminders are a lovely thing to have around. Don't you?

(My very favorite, for the inner granny in me)

I hope everyone is having a lovely Tuesday!!

Ta ta!

New Loves v.11

Hello! It's Tuesday, and I'm back with my New Loves series. Alas, it is another artist edition, but a new form of media has struck my fancy lately... photography. Especially vintage looking, feminine, whimsical sorts of photography. If you haven't stumbled upon Lola's Room via Etsy or some other forum, you must, must, must(!) look and adore her pretty pictures. I feel like I'm probably the last person to come across her lovely images, but hopefully it will be new to someone out there. 

These images are just a few of my favorites. Lola's Room is jammed packed with precious, pretty, 'spend your day daydreaming about' photos. click-here-for-more!

New Loves v.10

Good Morning Tuesday! I'm back on-time (woot!) for my New Loves series. I'm sticking with my artist theme until I run out of new artists to love (which will happen, like, never.) Today's New Loves artist is from Germany and goes my the name of Katrin Schwulst, aka seasprayblue. I really like her Christmas tree prints, and I thought it was quite appropriate for the season :) Please check out out her Etsy shop, and her website. Enjoy!

Hope you have a fantastic Tuesday!!!

New Loves v.9

Good Morning and happy Tuesday to you! I'm finally on time for my New Loves post this week! I swear, it doesn't take me long to find a new artist to love as soon as I hop onto Etsy and start browsing. Today's New Loves artist was actually featured on the front page this morning, which is why she caught my attention. I used to have a quite a knack for fashion illustration in my late teens, and this artist made me realize how much I miss sketching. Her Etsy shop is called Robin Elizabeth Art, and it's full of uber amazing fashion illustrations and sketches. I adore her work, especially her use of pretty leggies! She has definitely inspired me to whip out the ol' sketch book tonight, and see if I still got it.  :)

Please check out Miss Robin Elizabeth, I hope you enjoy!!

Zooey, with antlers. So lovely!!

Have a lovely, inspiring day!!

New Loves v.8

Good Morning! I'm up way earlier than I need to be on this lovely, brisk Wednesday morning, and since I got too caught up yesterday (w/ laundry & housework) for my New Loves post, I'm going to make up for it this morning! Today's artist edition of New Loves was actually brought to my attention by a lovely style blogger, and Butter Toast shopper, Celine of The Wardrobe Diaries. Her sister, Danielle, is an artist with a woodland flair, and her Etsy shop Larkspur Studio is loaded with whimsical wonders.

Oh-so-pretty! I hope you enjoy Larkspur Studio as much as I do!

Have a lovely Wednesday!
