I’ve been researching fashion on the 70′s a for a little project I’m working on this week… So far I’m loving the flowy hair, knits and rich amber hues…

Chunky belts, peasant skits and floppy hats… 70′s style had such a relaxed, but elegant look. What’s inspiring you this week?

Vera Wang’s collection for Fall 2012 was pure couture goodness. The color palette of black and nude definitely gave the collection an avant guarde feel, not to mention the elaborate bodice constructions of the nude gowns.

I particularly love the structured bodice of the dress on the right, that dress will make anyone’s waist look small. So what do you think? Would you wear a nude or black dress on your wedding day?

I’m a big fan of Tara’s work over at Ink & Wit. Every year she puts out the most adorable wall calender and every year I buy one.

I love this detail shoot of a modern chair and bowls. There’s always something so peaceful and happy about her designs.

A bear and a balloon? Too sweet. You can see more of Tara’s work right here and buy the calender right here.
