This color combination doesn’t just speak to me, it screams! One part Scandinavian, a dash of African, it’s somehow clean and funky and vintage and neon all at once! Happy Monday out there!

Last October while exhibiting at the LA Textile Show I had the pleasure of meeting the one and only LA Shoegirl, a style savvy footwear designer named Nalini Arora. If you’re familiar with this blog, you may recall that she featured one of our prints and did a mini interview a while back, in her swatch of the week.
This time she’s really hooked us up, incorporating one of her favorite prints from our collection into a custom-designed (and extremely drool-worthy) pair of shoes. Boots, actually, and the ones I’ve been coveting for a while.. and just to be an overachiever she designed an extra pair for herself! (Yes, thank you, I’ll take one of each, please.) I love how she really deconstructs her inspiration and it’s relationship to the final product. Make sure to see the original post for all the great details she put into her design process!
In my never-ending quest for visual inspiration, it’s fairly astonishing how often I come across seemingly unrelated images that share an uncanny relationship, somehow overlapping in concept or execution. So often, in fact, that I’m starting a new weekly segment called Synchronicity. Hope you all enjoy!
After an entire year of Monday Color Moods, I find it a little shameful that I haven’t done any using a monochromatic black and white palette. Unlike most people, I tend to think of black and white more as accent colors than as the foundation for a palette.. if you need any further proof of this just take a gander inside my closet.
