Dressing Up In Daisies

18 year-old Sky Ferreira is an underground LA singer and IMG model who has recently taken the fashion world by storm. I fell in love with her when she first appeared in H&M's "fashion against aids" campaign, and then shortly after, hundreds of pictures of her began flooding my tumblr dashboard. It was then that I realized, I'm not the only one obsessed with this girl.

Her style is complete and total perfection. From her thrown on oversized men's button-ups to her ripped up fishnets and beat up boots, Sky embodies that entire "cool girl" vibe. There's literally nothing better to me than a girl who looks like she just rolled out of bed and couldn't give two shits if her hair is in the right place or her outfits matches itself. It's the idea of being perfectly imperfect that she does so well. Sky's look is so rock n' roll and like none I have ever seen before. She has become a main style inspiration of mine, and I can't wait to see all the future looks she is bound to rock.

Im going to be honest, 70% of the reason why I watch Pretty Little Liars is to see what Aria, or Lucy Hale, is wearing! The adorable actress is always rocking edgy but pretty ensembles, with perfect hair and makeup to match. Lucy also sings, making her a triple threat! I just love the way she manages to look rocker chic with dark colors and studded accessories. She's fashion forward in a personal and very pretty way. On or off screen, this girl has style! xx, Lillian

Long time no see!!..or write, I guess I should say... Anyway, I have been in Texas for nearly all of my Christmas break visiting my family and I didn't get back until a few days ago. I got some awesome Christmas gifts and did some MAJOR shopping that I can't wait to tell you guys about! (I have a million style diaries, stories, and purchases to share!!) It's been nice to rest and relax over the past few days, but now I'm ready to get back into the groove and start blogging regularly again! Yay!

Today is a particularly special day for Dressing Up In Daisies because it marks the exactly one year anniversary of my very first post ever!! I can't believe it's already been a whole year since I started up this blog just for a fun experiment- and now 310 posts, a new co-editor, endless outfits, photos, floods of inspiration, and 146 followers later, I'm addicted to blogging!

I absolutely love hearing your feedback, comments, questions, and criticism about Dressing Up In Daisies! It helps Lillian and I know what to post more of, and gives us a good idea of what kind of direction for DUID to go in during the upcoming year. Since today marks the start of a new year, and the one anniversary of this blog, feel free to leave a comment letting us now if you are enjoying what we're doing here! Like I said, we really appreciate it!:)

I would also like to take this time to thank all of our fabulous followers and readers! We would be no where without you guys so thank you for taking the time to follow us at some point over the past year!

I hope you all have a wonderful time finishing up holiday festivities! Cheers to another year of fashion, glamour, and inspiration!xx

So I honestly have no idea what I'm doing yet...I just got a tumblr like five seconds ago. I thought it would be a cool way to find/share inspiration and awesome pictures, quotes, etc! Do any of you have Tumblrs?? What do you think of it? You can follow mine here: http://xoxoaudreystardust.tumblr.com/

I specifically remember sitting on the floor at Lillian's house and watching this episode of The Rachel Zoe Project where Rachel styles a spread for Love magazine(above). Lillian and I almost had a heart attack watching Rachel Zoe and Brad Goreski run around with leotards, fur coats, and big, huge tranny heels for the gorgeous model, Ginta Lapina. It was definitely an "I DIE!" moment for the both of us. I mean really: Bridget Bardot inspired hair, eyeliner for days, lots of leopard, leotards, and fur. What more could you ask for???

So yesterday I was sitting on my couch watching Rachel Zoe reruns(even though I have seen every episode a minimum of seven times already) when the episode with this shoot came on! This sparked an idea in my head: I bet the magazine has already been released..I should go look it up. And so I did.

The images, as you can see above, are absolutely gorgeous. Rachel did such a fantastic job styling this fall 2010 editorial! It's so effortless and glamorous- all at the same time! Very Rachel Zoe!

Nothing is really better than a little New York street style..*sigh* just looking at this picture makes my mind automatically plan an escape route of how to hitchhike all the way to New York before college. Believe me, I will if I have to.

I was recently looking up street style on the internet, and I realized I've neglected to update my album (http://dressingupindaisies.onsugar.com/Sensational-Street-Style-8290985) in quite some time! Shame on me.. I promise to add lots of new pictures that I found this weekend!

For those of you big-time designers in the making (like me!) you understand that there's a lot more to being a designer than just sewing garment after garment and producing amazing pieces out of nothing.  No matter what you make, it must first be inspired by something. Whether it's a song, a feeling, a person, a place, a photo, a decade, a dream, a painting, or anything in between- all artists or designers are inspired before they start creating. Being inspired isn't something that you can go out on a quest for, it just sort of happens out of the blue. It can be in the most obvious or the most unexpected form imaginable. The process of being inspired is just as magical as the actual creating process.

Not only do I have the passion for being a designer, but my best friend, Lillian, also does. She is granted with a huge imagination and an incredible talent for the art of design. We work spectacularly together, so we thought, “Why not create a collection together?” We've been brainstorming and throwing out ideas for about a month now for the collection. Today, we put together an inspiration board of the general direction we want to take with this. We still don't have a firm direction- but hey, we're getting there:). Below are some pictures of our inspiration board. I encourage you to make inspiration boards of your own if you ever are in need of inspiration, or simply want a way to express your creative energy. I wanted to share Lillian and my board with all of you fellow aspiring designers, or others who are interested in any other type of creating or have a passion for the arts. Check it out!

Xoxo,

Audrey
