100 sketches today!  Woohooo!  What a super cool milestone!!  I am so excited!

Just look at that simple little 100, scratched on paper in a split second ... so easy to write down, but it took 100 days of sketching every single one of 'em to get to this split second moment.

Another insanely crazy (and fun!) day at work, but I managed to squeeze in a few minutes at lunch to sketch these sweet neutral grey suede Jimmy Choos.  Even on crazy busy days, must keep sketching!  Especially for my 100th sketch, are you kidding?  :-)

Watercolor.

Working a 14-hour day today! Yikes! Working on planning an event for work, which is proving to be extremely intense and stressful, but at the same time a lot of fun! I love it! Still, little time to sketch. Hence a doodle of some cool pitchers and posting on the run today! :-)





Using my trusted little Winsor & Newton palette again.

Jimmy Choo's, sexy to boot!  I want!!  I could totally see these stunners with a skinny jean or leather pant, a nice, loose t-shirt and a black jacket: very rocker cool!

Love these Giuseppe Zanotti platforms and their super sexy shape!  However, I am not a burgundy (or brown, for that matter) person.  So I'm dreaming of a light grey suede with an electric royal blue as a hot accent!  Royal blue obsessed, anyone??

Today, my friend Vana, owner of Le Papier Studio, published an interview with me!  Can you believe it??  I am so excited and completely besides myself!  She is incredibly supportive of me, which I appreciate tremendously!!  Check it out here!

Two of my favorites subjects to illustrate: Gwyneth Paltrow and JCrew. Better yet, Gwyneth Paltrow wearing JCrew!

Check out all 5 Gwyneth Paltrow posts: 87, 88, 89, 90, 91.
My fave? 88 without a doubt.

Last installment of the Gwyneth Paltrow series, inspired by GP's latest post on goop about transitioning from summer to fall with some fun JCrew pieces. Check out her post!

In this head-to-toe JCrew outfit: the Collection leather bomber, the Collection cashmere turleneck, the Toothpick ankle jean (I must love these jeans, I sketched them twice!  Ha!), and the Etta cap toe pump, an instant classic.

Here, she's wearing the JCrew Perfect shirt in Aegean plaid, the Hacking jacket in herringbone and the Cafe capri in herringbone.  What a perfectly pulled together outfit, great for work!  Love it!

This super cute JCrew jacket is the Collection Eisenhower jacket, worn here with the JCrew Collection cashmere ribbed sweater, the adorable JCrew Boyfriend chino short and the JCrew Collection Invitation clutch.  Love the small punctuation mark that patterned clutch makes against the pop of color and the neutral rest of the outfit!  Just the right amount, and a very sharp contrast.

I am in complete and utter LOVE with Belstaff!  And this little ensemble of theirs is no exception. 

You may have seen their cool and understated designs in some of the biggest movies worn by A-list stars such as Will Smith in I Am Legend (one of my all time fave movies!), Christian Bale in The Dark Knight, Kristen Stewart in The Twilight Saga, Brad Pitt in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Scarlett Johansson in The Avengers, Robert Pattinson in Water for Elephants, Bryce Dallas Howard in Terminator Salvation, James Marsden in X-Men: The Last Stand, Naomi Watts in Eastern Promises, Daniel Radcliffe in Harry Potter and Half-Blood Prince, and many others!  Always projecting that laid back kind of cool.

If you haven't come across Belstaff before, you must check them out!  The are incredibly cool and inspiring, though pricey.  Still, one can drool, can't one?  I know I am!

And check out the Belstaff Spring/Summer fashion show as part of NY Fashion Week on Sept 10!  I can't wait!
