A bird with wings! :D

Hello there!
After this weeks second pastel picture I now have something a little more multi-materialistic for you XD
It is indeed a bird and it was done with guache colors, watercolor, ink, tusche, pastels aaaaand pencil crayons! It took me a while to figure out how I was going to do it but here is the result! :D

Isn't he cute? :D

Baggy Trousers

Hi. Well, so I have to say, I watched hip hop movie, I was inspired by the style, I made it pink/purple'ish and here's the outcome.
A baggy pair of trousers, suitable for any kind of dancing, work out or just stroll in the city. Here it is paired with a short tank top.

Strapless top with necklace

Hi there! So I long ago noticed that I asolutely adore that when you have very free shoulders in summer e.g. because you're wearing a strapless top or a a top with very thin straps, short simple necklaces with a pendant make the look complete. To top it wooden necklaces in an ethno kind of style are the best!
This is a little bit my go of this trend, a sleeveless simple pink shirt which kind of fans out like a dress at the bottom but ends at the waist and some normal black trousers under it.

PS: you can barely see that this is me searching for interesting poses again....XD

Peplum blazer with pink pencil skirt!

Here comes the next peplum! Hi everyone-so I must admit-I actually kind of fell in love with peplums...which is quite remarkable considering that I hated them when they first popped up on the runways.
So todays "Think Pink" outfit is a little...unconvential. I was flipping through a magazine when I came across a Burberry jacket which inspired me to this one.
The color is a military kind of olive green which looks awesome in contrast with the pink leather pencil skirt. The jacket is closed until the top and is then secured in the waissline with a thin belt. From there the Peplum comes in fanning out over the waist.
I hope you like it!

PS: I decided that the black pen I have is to fat for drawing faces and I don't want to keep ruining my ladies with weird looking faces so for the moment they will be faceless but as soon as I find a thinner fibre pen I promise they willt get faces again!

Magazine Strip Skirt

Hello! I hope your all doing good because it is time for the first "Think Pink" design.
You might have noticed yesterday-I suddenly rediscovered my love for collages so I just carried on today.
To put it short-it is a skirt! Made up of lots of thin strips of magazine pages.
I would love to actually try this out in 3D but I guess you would figure out a way to make them stiffen-but I'm sure one could try...maybe I will sometime...

This weeks theme-Think Pink!

Hi there! So you probably already noticed because of the title-I have something new in store for you! So I was sitting there, trying to think of new ideas for outfits and tadaaaang I had this inspirational flash...yes the famous flashes again :) well so here it goes...I was looking at my pile of magazines labeled "inspirirations" and I thought about it-when do I actually flick through these anymore? I looked at them a few times, then I new what to expect and they now lay abandonned in the corner of my room. This is where the flash comes in. I suddenly had an idea on how you could pull new designs out of these magazines and photos-cut them up! Thinking about it a little longer I came up with a concept. So here we go..
Every Monday from now on is Inspirational Monday. Here I won't post a new design, piece of clothing or outfit but a new collage of photos from my pile of magazines all related to one topic and then, the whole week until Sunday, all my new designs will be inspired by that and maybe these will help you come up with your own as well!...so how does that sound to you?
To kick it off, I just took the title of an article I found in one the AW 2012 Edition of LOVE "Think Pink". Now I know this isn't really one of my usual.....inspirational credos I guess because I'm not that much of a pinky girl-but that was kind of the point. To try something new! And I mean-who knows...maybe I'll come up with ways of using pink which...I would actually wear!
So here you go...the first collage for you!
I hope you find it inspirational! XD
xoxo Alex
