Too Groovy...

If there's one era I love more than any other it's the swingin' 60s. They were just so cool! Great music, suave interiors, and colorful fun fashion. Today it's the Go-Go dancers of the 60s that have brought this illustration to fruition- they seriously had something special going on.

Everyone was so stylish back then, whether they were wearing outrageous geometric prints or pared-down makeup looks and tomboy outfits. Somebody hurry up and invent a time machine already!!

Miss Fine

You know how there are those TV shows you always come back to because they make you feel so damn happy? 'The Nanny' from the 90s is one of mine. Maybe I didn't realise it at the time but I think when I was a kid watching the fabulous Fran Fine parading around in all her over-the-top nasal glory, her love of fashion, colour, and self-expression must have rubbed off on me somewhere along the way.

I love that she stands out like a sore thumb on the show, and she carries her fashion statements with total nonchalance and classy confidence. 

The outfit above is from the episode 'Fashion Show' and it has to be one of my all-time favorites. I'd even go so far as to say Miss Fine could be one of the most successfully styled characters on any show I've ever seen! 

Here are a few more outfits that can't go without a mention. God, she's awesome...

Sleepytime

Maybe it's the onset of winter here in Australia or the fact that I've been sick for the past month and a half, but I felt it was time to illustrate some pyjamas. 

I know some people don't really get the appeal of wearing pyjama sets and will opt for sweats and a 

hoodie instead. But in winter there's nothing I love more than donning a pair of cosy (understatedly glamorous) PJs, fluffy bed socks, and settling in with a good book or addictive TV show to binge watch- at the moment it's 'The Real Housewives of Cheshire'- what can I say? I love my trash...

And of course this entire scenario wouldn't be complete without a cup of hot cocoa in a raccoon mug and a comatose cat on your lap... What is it about cats and their instant ability to cheer you up?
