tantalized yet?

Tantalized, titillated, taken; yes I too am madly seduced by tangerine’s fierce hues as Pantone has announced ‘Tango Tangerine” as the Color of 2012. I personally was one to believe that orange was confined strictly to prison jumpsuits, sports teams, and beach towels…but after this season’s runways were unveiled I started to clear a space in my heart for the many shades of orange. It was impossible to keep my heart closed to such vibrant and truly powerful hues when they were gracefully swaying down the catwalk as my jaw dropped ever so slightly with each new design. I was inspired – inspired to squeeze fresh orange juice, to bask in the warmth of sunlight, to run through fields of Californian poppies…. to let orange take up a permanent residence in my heart. I have seen the light – or rather the lighter side of orange. Deep hues of scarlet have never been a sore spot, but alas have never found their way into my closet. Like I said, I’ve been blinded of the potential this vibrant color has held…that is until now! Enjoy my favorite pieces of tangerine inspirations!

Lately, I've been super inspired by simple art...fashion illustrations mostly!

So European - fresh, sweet, and spring-like. I can just smell the flowers looking at this!

What a beautiful wedding idea....country weddings always get me excited! Something simple, elegant, and quaint will do just fine.

Addicted to kittens......one of these days I'm going to adopt a little guy like this and love him forever <3

Whatever we don’t have we want! When we feel the desire for too long it sub-consciencely becomes a necessity… this is how I feel about the European Fashion world. I want to be there, I want to touch it, I want to wear it, I want to make it, I want to style it, I want to photograph it…I want to breath in a breath of fresh air of European Couture Fashion!

Schön! Magazine's incredible styling has me breathless!

For now, I’m scouring the internet, magazines, and blogs to keep up to date with what’s going on in the fashion industry. I’m excited to have been let in through the back door most recently….working my way into Los Angeles, California and finding my footing in this beautiful world. At times I feel frustrated for not being in New York, Milan, Paris, London…but then I remember that all good things start slow and require determination.

Schön! Magazine loves showcasing a dynamic and diverse array of ideas and talent through carefully crafted fashion photography. LOVE IT!

I think of this quote often when it comes to my first steps through the door of the LA Fashion Industry: “We see the people that have got stars in their eyes, but if you’ve really got what it takes, you can get from, say the beginnings, to the top in about five years.” – Trisha Goddard This reminds me that with the right amount of motivation, determination, and hard work I really can make my dreams come true.

I recently discovered Schön! Magazine which is an incredible fashion magazine based “literally in central central London” (how cool is that?) and distributed worldwide to be read in over 196 countries! All the photos in this post can be found at http://schonmagazine.com/. I love showing you my favorite fashions and wouldn’t pass up the chance to show you all my favorites from Schön! Magazine. Please enjoy and check them out!
