I’m enamored with everything from designer sarahseven, who sells via etsy. She is based in (where else?) Portland, OR.
It is just about everything I love… feminine but somewhat modern and sculptural, in neutral and pale colors. Check out sarahseven’s etsy shop.

I am no fashion blogger, but since I’ve been somewhat following the runways this season, I thought I’d round up a few of my favorite collections. If you’re interested, I’ve written a few more thoughts about the world of fashion in light of Fashion Week.
