A snippet of the very large inspiration board in the studio. We used cork tiles to cover a small wall, almost from floor to ceiling. I rotate all sorts of things in and out: images, vintage notions, flowers, etc.

I can’t seem to visit home without picking up at least one cashmere sweater from the Goodwill near my parents’ house. This one was a lovely lilac color, and I love the way it snaps up the front.

I wear a lot of vintage cardigans and I have a rainbow of them in my closet, all sorted by color. I decided to give this one a bit of embellishment, mostly because I have amassed such a vast collection of vintage lace scraps, and this one was the exact same size as the collar.

It borders on precious, but I think it will look lovely with a really simple black dress or pencil skirt.
