Wardrobe: soft and warm spring

Ashley in Switzerland, among many Anonymous requests, asked me for a wardrobe of warm hues.  I've been working on a general "spring" wardrobe for a while so I thought I'd share this one with you.  I hope you enjoy, and don't forget, if you have a specific wardrobe request, leave me a comment!  I'm particularly enjoying the requests based on specific paintings or scarves - maybe someone has a beautiful piece of pottery or china upon which I could design something?  It may take me a few weeks to fulfill your request, but I will definitely get to everybody! ...

Wardrobe: carefully curated and deliberately distilled for warm coloring

The lovely Kate asked for a wardrobe "rich medium brown, tan/caramel/cognac, and army green. For the colors any mix of light olive green, mustard yellow, orange, teal, plum, and terra cotta.".  This one doesn't include all of those, but it's a start.  And there are more autumn hued wardrobes under construction, so stay tuned!  And thanks, so much, for your request.  

Remember, if there's something special you'd like to see in a wardrobe, just leave me a comment and I'll put it on the list!

All images comes from Polyvore, although I don't actually built the vignettes there.  Check out their most wonderful sight - full of beautiful things! ... View the Post

A capsule wardrobe of blue & grey, based on abalone shell jewelry

Someone brilliantly requested that I build them a wardrobe based on the colors of the abalone shell.  With the inspiration I got from looking at abaloneshelljewelry.com, I built the following:

Thanks so much for the FASCINATING request; I hope you like the results. 

Anybody interested in a custom wardrobe, just leave a comment (even an Anonymous comment!) with the particulars of what you'd like to see.  It could be based on a particular painting, or scarf, or just your favorite colors.  And for those of you with pending requests - I'm hard at work to find you the PERFECT items! ...
