Hello everyone! I haven’t posted in a long time but wanted to do a quick post and share a great site for fashion and style with Visiondecor’s readers! What’s good design and life inspiration without a little fashion and style?
Cupcakes & Cashmere by Emily
A Perfect Mix
What girl doesn’t love food and style? It’s the perfect mix, and Emily has been a major sensation to many blog readers that love a daily dose of unique fashion and tasty food from Cupcakes and Cashmere!
Recently I saw Coco before Chanel, a romantic movie with a love story that pictured how a fashion empire was built on Coco’s premise of women dressing for themselves in chic and simple elegance. From reading Emily’s blog you can see how she has a California cool look that is “femininely eclectic”, much like an original unique style that breaks away from tradition like Coco Chanel.
Quotes by Emily - the following are quotes from her featured interviews and blog photos on her style and tastes that will move you. So rather than hearing it from me, you can learn more from hearing it directly from her!
“I incorporate flea market finds with current pieces since it creates a unique look that’s not exactly definable.”
California Cool - “I don’t take myself too seriously when putting together outfits and I think that itself is part of the California casual vibe.”
“Late 60s. I love the look of naturally wavy hair, flowy dresses, and long, gold chains. I envy a time that had no restrictions or rules when it came to dressing.”
“I’m inspired by women who are willing to push the boundaries a bit and wear pieces that are both flattering and somewhat unpredictable.”
Her Style as Emily Defines it - “Colorful. Feminine. Classic.”
“I’d say my look is femininely eclectic. Most of the time you’ll catch me in either a dress or skirt, but I’ll toughen up the look with a studded belt and some deconstructed boots.”
“By looking at my shoe closet, you’d probably coin me as a shoe gal. I’m all about wooden platforms right now and I’ve built up a pretty nice collection.”
“Sweet things should always be balanced out properly. Whether that’s a light pink dress or a cupcake, you never want to go over the top. So as long as you’ve got a spiky belt or a cup of icy milk, you’ll never cross that line.”
“I’m a huge sweets person, but if I had to narrow it down, chocolate lava cake with vanilla bean ice cream would be my ultimate choice.”
Well, that’s a taste of good food and fashion, you can see more about Emily at Cupcakesandcashmere.com, and one of my fav postsings from her “100 25 Things About Me” list. I hope all of you enjoy!
