Inspiration time

To begin this whole process I needed to come up with an inspiration/mood board. Over the last few months I had already been thinking deeply about what I wanted my range to be about. My head was full and confused with so many ideas and options to choose from.  Anyone who really knows me knows that I don't have one particular fashion style. What they do know is that I want to look good and look different. Punk, vintage, girly, mod, glamourous, formal, tomboy, bright and dull colours, name it and I will wear it. However this doesn't mean that I will wear anything, as long as I like it, I will wear it.  The same can be said about my designs. So as you can see I had a bit of trouble trying to fit all these catagories into a mere 6 outfits.

I thought to myself what have I always loved and wanted to buy when shopping. The answer was interesting items with unusual patterns, girlish charm, and bright colour mixes. For about the last year I have also been obsessed with Mia Farrow since I saw 'Rosmary's baby'. It was more her short blonde hair style, petite figure, and how the late 60s fashion suited her that I became interested in. This mini short hair obsession also lead to actress Carey Mulligan.  From this I came up with my inspiration boards.
