i will probably post any and every behind-the-scenes glimpses into the world of j.crew. and marissa webb and jenna lyons are simply stunning. i love their messy hair, bold lips, and big smiles. and their generous application of sequins.

macon york...
this darling print by macon york is the perfect dose of sweet~ charming and not overly twee~ and it's a perfect(and affordable) valentine's day gift. i had the pleasure of taking a calligraphy class with miss macon, a fellow georgia gal and all-around talented person. she just launched her etsy shoppe so start shopping!
seated woman with bent knee...
egon schiele's seated woman with bent knee is undeniably, unquestionably my all-time favorite piece of art. schiele changed my perspective on fashion illustration and rocked my world upside down. i'm not sure how i missed this exquisite harper's bazaar shoot with julianne moore and peter lindbergh, but dang. it is beautiful. for more pics, click here.

artists j'adore: mary delany...
the work of mary delany is quite marvelous. she was a blue stocking, a fine gardener, and quite skilled in areas of handiwork such as needlepoint, drawing and painting. mary befriended several botanists which enhanced her curiosity and fascinations with flowers and plants. mary was a pioneer in the world of decoupage and often made "paper mosaiks" for ladies of the court out of collaged tissue paper.
i am completely fascinated with her attention-to-detail and am floored by her precision and execution. i am almost tempted to try my hand at this, but am a little daunted. i wish i could peek inside her studio and sketchbooks!
