Happy National Scarf Day! I love scarves, as someone who runs hot and cold from moment to moment, they are a staple accessory for me.

Today is National Bamboo Day! If I could live in a bamboo forest I 100% would. There is something so simple and magical about this strong, flexible, whispering grass that induces such a feeling of calm; I just want to be surrounded by it for all my days.

I’ve been trying to come up with a colorway for my hounds collection that hints towards a pinky pastel sunset. I applied a pink opacity to this photo and also applied an opacity to the photo and placed an opaque pink under it.

Originally, the river scene was the hero of the collection, but I didn’t like the way the river looked once the pattern was repeated and scaled. I removed the river completely, which gave me the pattern from yesterday, which also gave me twoContinue reading “Sneak Peek Part Two”
