Lot's of traveling coming up in the near future which got me looking at makeup bags. These days a makeup bag can be used to really hold anything. I've even used them as a case for my camera. Here are some fun and colorful bags to help keep you organized.
Kelly Ventura is a freelance surface designer living in Michigan. Her work plays beautifully with different colors, shapes and textures. I've come to appreciate good hand drawn patterns when they are versatile in what can be done with them. Ventura's work could be used on stationary, fabrics for the home, clothing, etc. My mind is running with ideas and thought of creating my own patterns. I mean for someone that loves patterns why not give it a go. If anyone has suggestions on the best process to create patterns I'd love to hear. It's crazy to think that in all four years of attending art school I never took a surface design class. Thank you to Design Sponge for the introduction. TGIF!

Extremely successful and visually stunning. I get giddy when multiple patterns and textures coexist and still look beautiful. I've been doing a lot of research on redecorating and adding new textures throughout the house. These images are the perfect inspiration to just go ahead and have fun. This is the perfect post for a Friday afternoon. Have an amazing weekend. Check out the rest of the article here.

First post of 2014! These photos felt completely appropriate for the start of a new year. I came across this editorial project for FOAM magazine on Behance. Patterns in the set design and in the clothes. Just perfect. Stay tuned for pics from my amazing holiday spent overseas. Cheers!

The Rug Company has launched a new collection of rugs, wall-hangings and cushions based on recent Alexander McQueen runway looks. Sarah Burton's (McQueen creative director) spring 2011 "folklore" collection is the foundation of the seven-piece assortment. The Rug Company and Alexander McQueen's previous collaboration won the award for 'Fashion's Contribution to Design' at the 2010 Elle Decoration British Design Awards. Below are my favorites. God bless Alexander McQueen and the brilliant designs he shared with the world. Burton continues the success and growth of this fashion power house.
