my muse // blush pink + romantic motions

Nothing says winter desiring spring like the hue 

of blush and soft, romantic textures.

Blush is warm and delicate,and has the personality of 

being light-hearted + passionate. 

It is my go-to color when I'm feeling 

extremely feminine and romantic. 

The waves of their hair, the fluid of the texture, 

or even the silhouettes of their garments also adds to that mood.

Soft, flowy fabrics have always been known to form romantic silhouettes that flatter any body type,

 and for that reason, is why so many women love the looks. 

***Also this week, I have found interest in white eyeliner, 

and the benefits it adds to making the eyes look bigger and more appealing by applying it to your waterline. Pick up some today at any beauty or even drug store.

the weekend is finally here,

and it sure has been a chilly week.

so i thought my muses would derive from this 

cold, hard texture and colors.

this week i am inspired by

(and slightly obsessed with)... 

you guessed it, marble.

i chose these hard, graduating textures that resemble ice, 

and even have the cool blues, tough blacks, and icy whites.

many of you know i tend to lean towards neutral colors 

like hues of blacks and whites, however marble adds that 

assumed glassy and rough texture.

in the pictures above,i really liked the dynamic of the two toned marble skirt and blouse, the beauty of the marble laptop cover, the effortless design of the marble inspired ring, and even the phone case. I see that i used a lot of technology accessory pieces.. oh well.. needless to say, i'll take three of each! i can't forget the hair. it's the key piece to tie it all in. when you think of marble. you think of abstract lines, jagged pieces, and imperfectness. that's exactly what i thought of when i see this updo, distraught, but just as equally beautiful.

happy weekend + get inspired// 

rebranding // addie k.

happy tuesday, readers!

i'd like to share with you the project 

i am currently working on, rebranding.

ladies + gentleman, i present to you

addie k. patterns. 

my inspiration came from her old logo, with the cool blues.

I also included fun, handwritten fonts 

to go with her website style.

the textures and patterns also served as inspiration.

the watercolor and simplistic style.

my goal is for the logos and submarks 

to be clean and simplistic. 

visit her website at addiek.com 

to see her dress patterns and more//
