My passion is vintage fashion {illustrations, that is!}

Illustrator: Eduard Erlikh

Do you love these mouth watering fashion prints or what?! They were created by Russian-born New Yorker Eduard Erlikh, a renowned artist and illustrator. His drawings are simple and clean, but he achieves his masterpieces by layering coat after coat of watercolors {I've read that it's about 20 coats per illustration}. Maybe that's why it appears his drawings are liquid dreams ready to "run" off the pages. I have but two words to describe this creative genius' works -- fluid and flawless.

MadeByGirl {Love-ly Prints}

{images: madebygirl}

These prints wonderfully created by the lovely Jennifer Ramos of MadeByGirl are so sweet! I want a print for each room in my house! And, to receive one would be extra special if she wrapped it in a sweet package like you see above. Jennifer loves her tea and coffee, and she loves her fellow bloggers, so please make sure you stop by her store and her inspirational blog to see what she has been up to lately. Have a wonderful weekend, my whimsies! Be kind. Be happy. Be you. See you back here on Monday.

Monday Illustrations {Andrea Kett}

Happy Monday, all! Hope it was a delightful one for you! Okay, the art I'm posting this beautiful Monday was introduced to me via the delish blog, Millie Deel. These whimsical, fanciful, saucy, naughty and sweet illustrations are created by the lovely, Andrea Kett, whose work can be found at her store and her website. Andrea's inspiration comes from many different sources: the 1920s-1950s, 80s glam rock, vintage pin-up girls, burlesque, cake decorating books, horror films and fairy tales. These are a few of my favorites!

Sweet Pretty Prints {Janet Hill Studio}

The painter of these pretty prints is Janet Hill, whose inspiration lies in interior, furniture and fashion design, as well as films. Her vintage-inspired prints are pure delight! I want one (or two)! I really, really want one! I first came across her works via the lovely blog, decor8. Janet Hill has an Etsy store where you can see more of her sweet and pretty prints. Just click here. Also see her blog.

Pucci Kaleidoscope-Like Prints

The Pucci brand is known for its colorful geometric prints. Pucci fans included some of the 60s' most photographed women — Elizabeth Taylor, Lauren Bacall, and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis — bringing the brand into the public eye. His designs are still popular today. I would love to own one of his scarves to add to my wardrobe. Bellisimo!
