And so the days pass, and the seasons with it. Yesterday being the winter solstace was cause to reflect on a beautiful autumn before plunging into the next few months of undeniable winter. . .
covets: fall 2012
1. anorak, zara
2. snakeskin clutch, primary new york
3. tunic dress, wilfred
4. leather biker jacket, asos
5. fox fur shawl, dace
6. sweater, theory
7. leather bootie, asos
8. draped pants, donna karan
9. cropped pants, gap
10. handbag, le chateau
There is always so much to choose from the fall/ winter collections. Really, I would be content if either Theory or Dace just gave me one of everything, but I don't think those kind of dreams really come true. For now, I will be content as long as I find some chunky heeled moto boots (to replace those I had to heartbreakingly dispose of) and something furry.

One of the most luxurious and elegant collections of the season for sure. In my mind, these clothes are perfect: from the palette of rich neutrals and decadent textured fabrics to the sleek womanly shapes and intricate draping. I am dying for a hooded blouse (images 3 & 9) and those high waisted, twisted leg trousers (image 7). . . I wonder if I could hope to make some of my own?
havana on my mind

Heading to cuba in just 12 days! I love using vacations as a chance to wear outfits I would normally never wear at home . . . Time to break out the bold colors and add touches of glamour in the most careless way possible. I'm thinking: my sequin skirt with a white tank, long dresses for day and brilliant gems with distressed denim. The weather is supposed to be hot and stormy, so minimal make-up and good humor should help keep things relaxed.
These are a few inspirational pictures for the style scheme I have in mind. Unfortunately, many of them were obtained ages ago, in the days before labeling my images with the source . . .
sunny extras
1. earrings, forever 21 2. sunnies, aldo men 3. snakeskin cuff, asos 4. cocktail ring, h&m 5. studded sandals, gap
A few favorites from the past month. Not that we've had much of a summer here, but these gems have seen the sun every chance they could get.
Hello World
Hello there.
My name is Kaitlyn Marie.
And this is the froulian project:
A series of images and phrases to help me keep track of my thoughts, my progress, and what inspires me as a fashion designer.
Hope you enjoy.
