gettin it together

i've been working hard on churning out some new things. i'm really pleased with my level of motivation lately.
i'm shipping out three boxes tomorrow to shops and i started listing some new things on etsy today.
i'm trying to pace myself and keep a steady work pace. usually i'll cram craft time and pull overnighters, but this whole work-a-little-each-day bit seems to be working out so much better for me. seems silly that i've never really functioned this way.
so yeah..
fall! i can't wait. its absolutely my favorite seasons.. hence my leaf obsession.

heat beat

this louisville heat is killing me. i can't wait til fall arrives..
i never really wore shorts before i moved here. its kind of crazy how a few hours away from your home can be so dramatically different with weather. west virginia isn't nearly as sticky and miserable in the summer months.
but.. something to look forward to... autumn!
by far my favorite season, and by far the most dearest inez appropriate.
started working on some samples for new fall things today.
here's a quick look at a couple of the things i managed to cook up.

workin hard or hardly workin?

definitely working hard!
thats just a little sneak peak at what you'll find from dearest inez at these great shops:


Renegade Handmade in Chicago


White Rabbit in Iowa City


Young Blood in Atlanta

and..... we're back

go getcha some pretty right here

happenstance

Check out these two gals sporting some Dearest Inez down in Oklahoma!
Courtney (left) and Reem (right) work together at a boutique in Oklahoma City. Both happened to be wearing some Dearest Inez on the same day. Reem got her headband from me when she lived in Louisville and Courtney ordered her shirt from the Dearest Inez Etsy shop. What fun!

another time

i was looking through a friend's pictures from last fall and found this one.
this is my good friend megen and her niece dylan.
we were in chicago for the renegade craft fair last year and dylan took a liking to the small leaf earrings and leaf headbands, so she got the "i know someone" hookup.
dylan was a great little assistant at the fair and makes a great little model too!

coming soon...

ok. ive been a little absent over here. but i swear ive been busy!

there are lots of new things coming for spring. including some (lady gaga inspired) bows! i dont usually get too into pop culture trends, but i really do love a women that looks that great in a leotard.


ive also been workin up some goods for our friends at Old Hollywood in Brooklyn.


be on the lookout for new things and new shops in the new year!
