THE BLUE KOBOLD

LISTEN TO THIS

PASTELS+ILLUSTRATIONS=LOOOOOVEEEE


Spring is a tender season. Spring likes pastels. Tender colors are more than often one of the peculiar fashion themes during "warm season".

So...I'm not channeling any brand new trend here. 
ANYWAY! 

I am in love with illustrations. And I really wanted to publish works signed by two incredible artists: Denise van Leeuwen (already used one image taken from the "Planet adventures series" before...) and Marco Puccini aka OtO. They have completely different styles. But they have something in common: non only talent but a soft ironic touch that makes me adore their works. Visit their websites!

Fresh Fruits and (Farmer) Markets

East London, September 2011

Going to farmers markets makes me feel like a child: I always get over-stimulated by shapes, colors and scent of fresh fruits and veggies.

This is the same reason why my eyes where supper excited by Dolce&Gabbana's and Moschino Cheap&Chic tasty prints.

50ies inspired shapes in a mediterranean southern italian summer style @ Dolce Gabbana sending out classy divas dressed up for a market galore. Peppers, Aubergines, Tomatoes and Lemons all over. I've loved the mix with coloured lace adding a 3D sofisticated effect.

A more abstract idea of a Farmers Market  Moschino Cheap&Chic where colorful girls where wearing graphic design of fresh fruits and veggies perfectly fitting onto simple romantic shaped dresses for every taste.

A candy mint shade of green


I have been watching all of the WFS for SS2012 as the most of you. I got obsessed by green, which is one of my favourite colors ever since ever. And saw green over and over in so many collections as the days passed by. Mint green just became my obsession: I've found myself looking for any spot of the proper shade in every detail. And realized just a couple days ago that this obsession has begun one year or so ago: the background color of my company website, one beloved sleeping t-shirt, a bracelet that i got in London...
 

Mint // Water green is dreamy, fresh, sweet and tasty. I want to collect and show you what I mostly found inspiring.
