Teal Touches: Joys of Inspiration

Well, hello dear readers I have missed you! Aside from the usual (work+play+travel) I have been helping out a friend with a new art project (non-fashion related), which has been incredibly inspiring. Often with blogging it is easy to get wrapped up in the posting schedule of everyone else. Of course, there is nothing wrong with a schedule, however I invite you to remember that we must all take time out for ourselves as well—to live life, inspire others and be inspired!

For me, I will continue to do what I have always been doing. But, at this very moment I may need to take a bit of a breather from time to time during the week, given the timeline of these new additional and exciting ventures. I have also finally got back to sewing, so hopefully I will upload a few projects via Instagram in the near future.

This outfit is inspired by none other than nature's own colours. Even throughout the season of summer I still find myself constantly layering. It's almost like a subconscious styling element, but it also always works for me in the end. For this look I decided to layer a lace petticoat with my retro crepe printed dress; one that I bought at a secondhand shop. I really wanted to wear variations of blue, so this combination was well suited for the fashion mission at hand.

In case you haven't noticed, blue and yellow are two colours that are my absolute favourites! Since I have donned yellow in all of its glory it was definitely time to give blue some love!

So, what's your favourite colour? Wishing you a lovely summer and joyous weekend!
