Sorry I am a little behind on posting, things have been quite hectic as I’ve been working a couple of really fun projects (more to come on this!) Nonetheless, I wanted to make sure that I shared with you a wedding invitation that I just put the finishing touches on.

Ryan and Kristen approached me regarding their upcoming wedding. They wanted something classic yet modern (modern meets tradition!) and visually appealing. I presented several drafts to them and this is one they decided on. Their invitation includes a wedding monogram that also reflects the classic and modern style they wanted. Don’t you just love the color combination here?

Fashion week 2011 was quite an event! From fashion runway shows to shopping nights, fashion was the talk of the town last week! NY Fashion Week started last week and is still continuing through the end of this week. There are a lot of new designers this year as there were last year. Last year, one of my favorite new designers was Christian Siriano, a Project Runway alum who showed his Spring 2011 line last year including the dress I illustrated above. Christian mentioned that he drew his inspiration for this line from Africa, India and the Mediterranean. I love it when Modern Meets Tradition! The verdict is still out for this year in terms of my favorite designer, stay tuned!

There were other fun events ar0und the country last week like fashion blogger conferences, fashion nights out in a few majors cities and fashion expos. I did not get to attend the DC Fashion Night Out since it ended up pouring all night! I did, however, attend the DC Fashion, Beauty and Lifestyle (FBL) expo. The event was a lot fun and there were a few personalities in attendance like host Nigel Barker and winner Jaslene Gonzalez from America’s Next Top Model as well as DC fashion designer Korto Momolu. Two of my recent clients were also at the expo including Carolyn from the C.A.T. Walk Boutique and Tanuja from Food for Thin. Stay tuned for an upcoming interview with the very lovely Tanuja!

Today, I wanted to share some images about how patterns can be incorporated into home decor. As an illustrator/graphic designer, anything design-related sparks my attention but I think that most people would agree that using patterns in a sparing, clean way really bring appeal to homes.  I hope you enjoy these images and visit our shop for other ideas and items to incorporate design into home decor.
