Oh Alexa

Alexa Chung is a major style icon of mine so when I saw these photos from Vero Moda's Spring Collection I went nuts.  The collars, the color pallet the cardigans. It's all just so perfect.  Too bad they don't ship to the US.  Hey Vero Moda, we want to wear cool clothes too! Just one more reason to travel to Europe I suppose.

New in the Shop

I've been working on getting some new design in the shop and here is what I've got so far.  They are all very Granny Chic which I am so into right now (sorry husband). I've got a few more ideas floating down in my head that I hope to be able to add to the shop sometime this week.  I also had a few Valentines that I wanted to have on there but with the Valentines Day being a week away I think I missed the boat.  Better luck next year. 

What I Want From Modcloth Today

I love Mustard (the color, not so much the condiment).  My husband has recently told be that it is his least favorite color. Ever. Well that is just too bad because I am on such a mustard yellow kick right now.  I just love it's sunny vintage vibe.  Check out these beauties from Modcloth.
