Fashion Faces

So, I've finally finished sketching for my admissions project! YAY! Margarita anyone? I will post my sketches as soon as I send in my project. (I've got to avoid those copycats). Anyway, the main reason it took me a long time to finish was because of my perfectionist personality and stressing about my "fashion faces." I don't put eyes on my models. Just hair and lips (no hair on lips either). haha. I was worried that it may come across as incomplete and then I saw that famous designers do that all of the time. Check out the fashion sketches that were sent to the First Lady, Michelle Obama.

FIDM & Project Runway

I don't know what this is going to look like, but FIDM has chosen to be Project Runway's west coast location!

I guess there's going to be a new season broadcasted from California! Pretty crazy, huh!? Well, this definitely makes me even more excited to apply! Click here to see the announcement.

Francesca's Collections

I don't know how I ever passed this store up! I think I have walked by Francesca's Collections at least twenty times and have never gone in until my friend Katelyn Block wrote a post about it on her blog. I finally went in and I loved everything there! They have a lot of great tops, dresses and accessories for very reasonable prices. At least a couple times a month they have coupons or deals, so make sure to get on their listserv and check out a store near you or shop online! Here are some of my favorite dresses, purses and wallets!

Days of Delias

Does anyone out there remember the days of looking through Delia's catalogs in the middle of class? I had completely forgotten about Delia's, and then a couple of months ago  I went to their website to see if they were still around and... THEY ARE! They have a lot of cute stuff too!I know I'm not in middle or high school, but I can't ignore their awesome prices for trendy things. Does anyone else still get Delia's catalogs or shop online? If so, what do you think?
