I got the Friyay feelings early this week. I sometimes wish the outfits I draw would crop up in my closet. Happy Thursday!

Pining for Cooler Days
I wish it was fall already. Not only do I love living in layers, fall fashion, and fall tones, but I’ve always found fall to be a source of new beginnings for me.
I love everything pumpkin too. 🎃🎃🎃 Halloween has pretty much always been my excuse to dress out of my comfort zone and try something off the wall. Thanksgiving just warms the heart, period. Fall, hurry up. 🍂🍂🍁🍁 What’s your favorite season?
Current Color Mood: Yellow
Sunny happy yellow is cropping up everywhere & I’m loving it for summer. Who says you can only wear yellow during the day? Wear it to go out, for a wedding, etc.
I’m also loving slit dresses. I love that it’s okay to be a little cheekier during the summer too.
Pajama // Lingerie Inspired Style
One of my favorite trends this season and honestly of all runway trends is pajama & lingerie inspired style.
I’m definitely pining for a set like the one I drew above.
Is the Pajama Wrap Jumpsuit by Asos above not the cutest thing ever? 😩
We’ve seen this trend crop up before. Last spring it was a hit and this year more racier styles are taking over the trend. As noted by Vogue Italia,
“Bra, briefs, garter belts and (lots of) body suits. Style is in the details…”
We’ve definitely seen the bralette and bodysuit trend for a while. 90s grunge style was embedded with racy punky babydoll dresses a la Courtney Love.
I love the juxtaposition of a strong boot with a soft feminine lacy dress.
The modern take on lingerie inspired dressing is fashion-forward as well. Apparently, the trend will continue to appear and give its fans something sexy to slip into fall/winter 2017. Vogue Italia also writes,
“The hues for winter 2017 lingerie include timeless black but also lots of burgundy (replacing classic red for Christmas) and pink-nude, more understated but still flirty.”
Personally, I’m in love, and I can’t wait to wear this trend all summer. 💞
What do you think about it?
Love,

New (Spring) Beginnings
I’m wishing you all & myself a week full of new beginnings and wonderful things this spring. I feel like I need a fresh start. This app I’m trying out, Paint Joy is actually pretty fun and easy to work with. ( This is not a sponsored post!) I just like it. I’ve tried a lot of similar apps, believe me, but I won’t quit until I find the ideal one for drawing on the go. I’m in love with that idea. I’m also in love with wispy feminine dresses right now. What are you loving at the moment?
