Happy Sunday, darlings! Last week was a whirlwind. First, I got to spend the weekend in NYC observing the latest fashion trends and acquainting myself with the new Hudson Yards mall. Then, upon returning to Miami I worked every possible hour updating my Etsy shop and putting the finishing touches on client commissions. Last, but…

From Pinterest inspiration to fashion illustration
The other day I was doing my usual, sipping on tea and pinning things on Pinterest (lol) and I found this picture that I totally pinned in my Muses board (Unfortunately the source is unknown. Feel free to leave a comment if you recognize her so I can give her proper muse credit). I immediately had…
Get Their Look: Bell Sleeves (yes, please!)
Ah! Bell sleeves have returned and are hotter and cuter than ever. I definitely need some in my life asap! I love that they can be incorporated into outfits right now in the cooler months and then become a nice transition into spring and summer. My top picks (that striped sweater though ♥ !) xo,

Runway inspiration- Elie Saab Pre Fall 2017
My sketchbook often grabs inspiration from the latest collections that hit the runway. In this occasion, I was mesmerized by Elie Saab‘s Pre Fall 2017 collection. I adore the accessories he incorporated (hearts, keys and embellishments galore), the contrasting textures, and the silhouettes he used in this collection. He never disappoints! I created this sketch using…
Meet Greenery- Pantone Color of the Year 2017
Pantone has made its official yearly announcement, and they have chosen Greenery as their color of the year 2017. According to Pantone, Greenery is “symbolic of new beginnings.” Greens are not exactly my favorite spectrum of the color wheel (sorry Pantone), therefore I’m already missing Serenity and Rose Quartz (and why not, Radiant Orchid from 2014…
What’s in my travel art supplies bag?
As you may have seen on my social media, I’m currently in Buenos Aires (my hometown) for a few days. I -obviously- brought my travel art supplies bag down here with me, and I thought I’d share it in the blog since I always get a ton of questions about the tools I use. I…
My Fall Winter 2016/17 mood board
A few months ago, I explained how having a mood board helped me create my fashion illustrations as a key part of my creative process in this post. This week the time finally came to take down the spring summer mood board. Yay! 🙂 I’m all about fall/winter (and can’t wait for the cooler weather…
When fashion illustration imitates reality: behind “Jungle Pop”
I recently collaborated with my studio-mate Barbara from ABC Silk (a silkscreen printing shop in which you can turn your ideas into reality) to turn my fashion illustrations into screen printed art. The project turned out to be one of the most personal projects I’ve ever created. It all started when I first moved…
