Lily 91
Hello, hello my friends.
How's your Saturday going?
Mine has been pretty laid back, spending the day,
so far watching movies with my Dad.
The Drawing today is from Volume 1 or my Character Sketchbook.
If you don't know what the Character Sketchbook is, it's the sketchbook i started 3 years ago,
to document the process of me learning how to draw.
Well, i hope you like this old drawing of Lily Cole. :)

Bicycle Short Shorts - (Big!) Bicycle Wicker Basket
(via fairphantom)
More bicycle short shorts, seems to be a theme going with me this week. What I love about this photo as well is the BIG wicker basket on her bicycle. The cuffed socks worn with her sandal heels are too cute.
More short shorts, only this time with creamy white boots, and killer lacey stockings. I love her mix of plaid shirt and lace. The hat is adorable and she also had the best vintage alligator purse!... which you can sort of glimpse sitting on the bar. This photo I took awhile back at Lulu's coffee house. The bike she rides is a bright red Redline fixie. I didn't get a chance to catch a photo of her on her bike, booo!
Collages, Daydreams, and Doodles
Wow it's midnight here so happy Friday!
It's not too often (like never!) that i collage...
I know this isn't too much of a collage...
but i kind a just felt like making one today.
It just felt like one of those days.
My brain has been drifting off to dreamland alot lately,
so i thought i would make this little journal collage thingy.
i have to say, it was pretty fun to make.
I really hope you like it!
and happy Friday my friends! :)
Oh yea, and P.S. it's not too often someone gives me a drawing,
but Maria Korkeila was kind enough to draw a portrait of me.
i posted it up on my image diary
click here to see it :)

{happy october + pale autumn blue}
. . . the soft colours of the recent runway shows -- feathery pink, whispy violet, muted coral and ecru -- and this week's calming greens and champagne hues bring dreams of smokey, palest autumn blue, the kind the appears in hazy, early-autumn light . . .
happy october! hope your week has been wonderful so far,

Cruiser Bicycle- White Wedding - Short Shorts
(via presa su qualche blogspot)
Not exactly Fall Inspiration I know...but I am always fall for pink cruisers and matching shoes. And who can resist a 80's vibe, white wedding lacey look. It's actually warm enough here to wear this look today, if you want to channel your inner vampy pinup. It is almost Halloween too, so I've definitely been starting to get inspired!
