Monday Morning Inspiraion

While surfing around on the computer, looking for a little inspiration, I came across this article http://www.cosmopolitan.com/celebrity/fashion/weird-fashion-week-inspirations#slide-6. My first thought was, "wow, this is inspiration at its best." Now, you may not like what the designer came up with, but you must agree that the pieces are quite interesting. I enjoyed this so much and thought that you might as well, so I thought I would share it.

Wishing you a wonderfully inspired day!

    1. It is really pretty and isn't it interesting that you can see the inspiration and yet it looks nothing like the inspiration piece.

  3. It is always so interesting to see where the design originated in it's first thought! Creative juices run in intriguing ways ... J

  4. Oh, I want that dress in the second row of photos, the one that looks like Queen Elizabeth I's blackwork dress. Absolutely gorgeous!
