Sketching and Fashion Illustrations.

The sun has been shining the last couple of days which is lovely and I have been doing some sketching and new fashion illustrations so I thought I would share some with you!


I have been inspired by the elegant Audrey Hepburn and her timeless style.....funny as I am typing this the dreamy song "Moon River" has just come on the radio! From her film the fabulous " Breakfast at Tiffany's"


I love using watercolour and some wonderful Brush Pens I got recently that are quick and bold to use for illustrating and sketching.


I think my style of illustration is feminine and quite whimsicle with a dreamy quality!



I am building up my illustration portfoilio and hope to find interest to get some published! So i will get back to my paintbrushes and pens, hope everyone is enjoying a creative and fun day. x

Shoe carousel.

I wanted to share some fun shoe displays I have seen recently. I love browsing the shoe department in Selfridges as the different designers have small boutique sections that look fabulous!

One display has gorgeous ballerina costumes to decorate the space...I love the ballet and it has been a great inspiration to me so when I saw this I just loved it!


How pretty is that?!

I also saw some fabulous window displays, this week at Selfridges they had fun fair inspired Shoe Carousel windows....




The windows looked fun and also had shoes that lookd like they were walking and others driving bumper cars! So i did a quick sketch.....


Another beautiful window display was at Harrods this winter as the windows were a fairytale theme a Cinderella style indow showcased a beautiful sparkling shoe......


Such a pretty display! I also found the cutest little pair of red sparkly shoes to put on my tree at Christmas!..


So I will continue to dream of shoes and the perfect Jimmy Choo's on another snowy spring day! Have a great day. x
