Monthly Inspiration!

What's inspiring you all this month? Me? Glad you asked, and if you don't care, well here you go.

First: Gingham



Here we have a collage I made in procreate( I'll post an app review soon). I started seeing this print popping up a lot, but I've always appreciated this print, and am glad for the new opportunities to get my hands on this trendy design reminiscent of picnics and English school girls. The top left skirt and the blue dress beneath were snipets from the Japanese Seventeen magazine, a great inspo source.  I love how the first black skirt pairs with a classic sweater for that scholarly look! Next to it is a lovely dress from The White Pepper. The brand is a gorgeous British one that has very cute dresses in a breezy, slouchy cut as you can see. The print can be small, as above....or LARGE:
like this skirt and shirt combo from http://onlystylishpeople.blogspot.com/2013/06/look-of-day-

Notice: double gingham is very cute for a bright look

Suffragettes

Well done! Well done! Well done.....Sister Suffragette!
Do we all remember Mrs. Banks from Mary Poppins? She was a British Suffragette, who was advocating votes for women in the movie! Suffragettes have been inspiring me lately, as his area if history is pretty interesting, and very important! I recently read the book "A Mad Wicked Folly", by Sharron Biggs Waller, which is about an early 1900s girl 
trying to find her identity and independence as a female artist. Suffrage is a theme in the book, and the escapades of these tough women is focused on.

Speculoos Cookie and Cocoa Spread


Yummmmm

If you're in Trader Joe's, buy this for a sweet treat! It can be spread like frosting, but a spoon and your mouth will be fine! It has swirls of chocolate and a cookie tasting....well, butter....batter...I don't even know what it is, but it's good. I mean, guys, how is food not inspiring?
