I’ve wanted to pair these crazy mustard denims with my leopard accessories for SO long and today was the day and what a yummy day it was!

It sprinkled earlier and the rainbow sky and lighting was incredible as we explored some fun new territory.  I discovered later that this “trespassing” could have gotten us in a bit of a pickle.  Oops.

I started this painting “MEOW” in 2014 during an obsession with textiles and pattern and it just got a new facelift!  While revisiting this leopard print recently, I was reminded how time consuming it is to paint multiple hard crisp shapes accurately.  Although I love creating pieces with high craftsmanship, it takes FOREVAH!

This adorable handbag was designed by one of my favorite Swedish fashion bloggers, Janni Delér, who I find endlessly talented and inspiring.

Try to take a little adventure yourself this weekend. You deserve it!
