The Rule of the Ray Ban

Everyone knows and can quickly identify a pair of Ray Ban's. Not just because of the name in white on the side but they are one of the most iconic sunglasses, ever. Also, aviators but that's a different post. 

Although Ray Bans have several knock offs, the originals are unmistakable. I'm pretty sure if you looked hard enough you would see hundreds of celebrities wearing Ray Bans at least once. And here are some pictures to prove it. But these are only a few. To see more celebs in these fabulous sunglasses go here

Johnny Depp

The one and only: Audrey Hepburn
(The incredibly attractive) Ed Westwick

Good Morning Sunshine, The Earth Says Hello!

To be quite honest, I don't know anyone who doesn't love the sun. The fresh morning sun peaking over the horizon (or in my case; the mountains) in the wee hours of the morning. That's the good stuff, because that sun is golden and so new and pure. 

It literally makes you glow, giving you a soft haze of golden. 

I've notices that unless your up close to your subject, sunlight hides your features. It creates this mysterious shadow, that to me is just impeccable. (Picture 5-6)

Perfect mixture of sunlight and fashion. (Love the hat)

The Beauty In Ugly (not saying these pictures are ugly but I thought it was a good title)

We are so caught up these days in being pretty and clean. Put together and all done up. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying that being pretty is a bad thing, I like getting all dolled up. But these pictures make messy, fun!

 I love these pictures. They are bold, daring and somewhat indescribable.
(If you cant tell, I really like these photos. For some reason I am drawn to these.)

My Inspiration

You ask any blogger/designer/stylist what their inspiration is and or course they'll all say something different. Whether it is they want to share their style with the world or they just love clothes. 

Inspiration is personal and unique (which are I guess the same thing but you get the idea). And not everyone has an inspiration or a motive for doing what  they do, but enough will other people...

My Inspiration:
I had always had in interest in fashion and design. I have a wall in my obnoxious yellow walled room, that is covered with magazine clipping. And before you jump to the conclusion that its boys and cheesy pop artists, its not. I would find designer adds in Vogue, InStyle, Marie Clare, etc and hang them up and study the for hours.

Soon after I started sketching. My passion for design and fashion grew. I loved designing my own clothes, another factor being; I hated going shopping and seeing horrible clothes everywhere. It got me frustrated. So there's inspiration #1; Why I started designing and blogging. 

Inspiration #2;
Last summer I traveled to Paris. I have family there so we decided to visit and since that trip, I have fallen in love. With clothes and fashion and different cultures/places styles.

It was on particular day, my cousin took me out shopping for the whole day, from 9am to 5 pm, and coming from a town thats so small the best mall is an hour drive away, this was a big deal. 

The difference was outstanding. Between here and Paris. They stuck to the season, only summer clothes and color pallets were in store. It was eye opening to see how serious they took fashion and design.

If your interested, here are some pictures from my trip:
