Metallic Daydream

Happy Wednesday! With the holidays right around the corner I can’t help but get excited about all the party outfits! All of sudden you can find glittery skirts, dresses, and shoes everywhere. I sometimes wish the Holidays would last a little bit longer so, I have more of an excuse to take advantage of getting all Promed out (or so my family calls it 😉 ) and wearing my party dresses. Oh wait I don’t need an excuse to dress up I just make up excuses all year round to get dressed up.

I bought my party dress for my works Holiday party months ago. I saw it and i just couldn’t pass it up. So, it has been nicely sitting in my closet. It is a gold and black Jaquard floral dress. Since bringing it to the front of my closet I have been craving touches of metallic. This is the perfect season to crave such things because you can almost find metallic everywhere you go right now..oh happy days!

Since I’m currently craving metallic I put together my fave fives all of which involve sparkly metallic touches. So, enjoy my picks and let me know which ones are your favorite. Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and reading.

Glamorous Illustrations

I was asked a little while ago to do some commission work for my sister in law. My brother and her recently just bought a home here in sunny California. Now as they get settled in she has been decorating the house. Knowing that I love to illustrate fashion she asked if I could do four illustrations for her. She wanted to put them in her dinning room which is connected to the family/ front room.

So, I thought to myself hmmmm what to do? At first she wanted my illustrations from my portfolio but I kind of need those haha. So, I told her I would create new fashion illustrations for her. She was more than excited for that idea. Lucky for me she trusted me and gave me the freedom I wanted to do whatever I wanted. Kind of dangerous I know! One of the toughest parts of starting a new project is coming up with the idea. I always find everything after that a piece of cake. As I thought about this new commissioned project I thought about what theme and what kind of story I wanted to to tell. I finally decided I wanted these fashion illustrations to be glamorous and with a strong sense of femininity. Usually how all women want to feel and look (glamorous). Then I decided I wanted to stick with deep jewel tones because I wanted confident glamorous women. Any woman that is going for glamorous lets face it is in reality a very confidant and comfortable in her skin type of woman.

This project was a little different than my previous too. I played with glitter and rhinestones in combination with my usual illustration media’s of copic and primsa pencils. And let me just say I loved using mixed media. So here is how the illustrations turned out. I’ll post a picture of them framed and on the wall when they are done with both. I hope you like them and thanks for stopping by!
