Introducing... K. Slademade!

I could not be more excited to introduce you to a new Design Darling sponsor this morning! I am so fortunate to have sponsors whose work I truly love and feel passionate about sharing with you. Without further ado, a new-to-me favorite: K. Slademade!

My first order arrived with a handwritten card on adorable customized stationery from the owner, Kelsea. When the packaging is this cute, you know what's inside is going to be even better!

I've been carrying my new Suzy Market clutch literally everywhere! The upper is hot pink canvas and the bottom is handsome pony brown leather. 

The gold zipper opens up to a plain canvas interior with a charming hand-sewn tag. It's the simplicity of Kelsea's designs that makes me certain I'll be carrying my new clutch for years to come.

After falling in love with my first clutch, I've gone back to her shop to add several more to my favorites. This fold-over Mexican-inspired clutch ($62) has my name written all over it. How perfect with a pink top and white jeans for summer!

I think this fold-over pony leather clutch ($68) will be my next purchase. Its oversized shape makes it chic, practical, and versatile — in other words, destined for very heavy rotation in my wardrobe!

My Suzy Market clutch is available in other colors as well! I love the color-block effect of combining canvas with leather. The best part? It's only $54!

I'm seriously in love with Kelsea's shop and can't wait to expand my personal K. Slademade collection. I'm absolutely ecstatic to have her on board and I know I can count on you to give her a warm welcome!

P.S. I'm sharing five summer essentials on Emmy's adorable blog Sprinkles on Everything today! Please go say hi if you have a moment.

Stripes On Everything!

Stripes seem to be a staple in every one of my style icons' wardrobes. I just ordered this striped boatneck tee and I have a feeling I'm never going to take it off once it arrives. How could I when bloggers like Blair (blonde) and Karla (brunette) sport their stripes on the daily?

Are you catching my drift? I'd be lying if I said I didn't try to track down the striped Zara dress that Blair is wearing in the last picture. It's probably better for my wallet that I couldn't find it anywhere! Have a happy weekend and I'll see you back here on Monday.

Staying Neutral

I am perpetually torn between color and calm. The perfect shot of color can electrify an interior or an outfit like no beige or gray could — and yet there remains something to be said for the monochromatic calm induced by those neutrals. Here, a few favorite neutral looks of late...

Do you prefer colorful or neutral? Do you generally dress the same as you decorate?
