To Infinity and beyond

All right, all right you got me, how cheesy for a girl my age to use Toy Story quote but beloved friends of Cupcakes & Notes, this is just a message to you all informing you that starting today I will be on a hiatus from the blog. No it's not a love/hate relationship with it but because I am in big process of moving therefore I will start again as soon as everything is settle down...little by little...bit by bit.
Be safe
Love

Sight Seeing and Ruffles!

A lot of my time has been spent painting or occasionally daydreaming through my Pinterest boards. I am always striving to find nex techniques to create colorful abstract art for the sake of my house. Between the hunger for new techniques and being kidnapped by Pinterest, the desire to travel started to kick it in. Oh the feeling of rushing on a airplane while strolling a little carryon in the back. Ok I know first hand it isnt as dreamy as I made it seem but hey.

  I Dreamed of Italy was created on a my traveling whirlwing with a lady who's spending her afternoon shopping in the country side of Italy in her heels and with her bike. {Check out the link for you won't regret it)Thank you Imagination I owe you one!


But Today our gal Julia is sight seeing the streets of Saint Tropez, France with her bike while sporting on a green and yellow ruffle shirt, a long side braid, high waist red pants while buying fresh new flowers to embellish her cozy little apartment during her year long stay for a program of studying abroad.

Then autumn came

For the last past days my throat has been putting me to sleep to rest because there's nothing that I could do but get rest and try to be creative. Miraculously this week it eased up and allowed me to be creative again this evening and that amount of time led me to illustrate the Fall days ahead.
The Little lady above is none but Alexa. She appreciate the wonderful breeze that Fall brings her as she steps out of the door. Lord knows she couldn't take more of that awful heat until she has to worry about it again next summer. Although Alexa is convinced that she detest the harsh cold air that comes with winter she feels ready to confront it while staying in style. Alexa takes consolation that she can look her absolute best as she is freezing her butts off with the art layering and combing colors with autumn tone, oversize bags, suede shoes and solid tight.

Fall wishes list I

There's a new lady on the block from my line of Cupcakes And Notes. I'd like to introduce you to the ever workaholics, perky and fabuleuse Blaire Cupidon.

Blaire is currently finishing her last year of being an English major at Howard University in DC and seeking to go to Law School after her undergrad studies. Besides being on the look-out for classic novels, correcting people's grammar off the internet, or help shape out her brother and sister, Blaire loves shopping for wonderful pieces at bargain prices such as going to clearance rack before splurging to the new arrival section.

Blaire can be found at the student center as an SGA officer or strolling the streets of Manhattan where she helps out with her family's bakery and gift shop business.

It's all Love

Re-discovering treasures

It's Wednesday and thought of linking up with Lindsay of  The Pleated Poppy for a session of What I wore.There are times when people say that you can shop your closet when you take the time to eliminate things that you no longer wear. I always thought it could be true but I didn't it would apply to me until I ended up on this crochet sweater begging to see La Lumiere du jour. Hmm if I have forgotten piece like that, closet cleaning may not be such a torture after all.



It may be a simple outfit but sometimes when I am doing too much I end up looking like a clown however I love putting efforts to style. It actually take effort to have a well worn personal style.



However simplicity won with this crochet sweater and I know that it will be best when it's worn with a soft tone color skirt, elegant shorts along with the navy wedge sandals that are presented in the pictures.



But hey at least I am definitely learning the tricks of capturing the beauty of light with my new camera.


It's All Love
