My Favourite Heatwave Favourites.

What I Wore To Stay Cool During The Heatwave, In Drawings.

During the recent heatwave I had only 1 thing on my mind: how to stay (somewhat) cool! The workspace in my apartment got so hot that my bikini became my new work-uniform (one of the advantages of working from home!)

This is a drawing of my personal favorite things that are keeping me cool during the hot weather. If you like this you can follow me on Instagram and Pinterest for regular updates or shop my illustrated papergoods on Etsy.

Wearing: everything is this illustration is H&M, except for: “lucky” bracelet, Anna+Nina – vintage denim skirt – canvas tote from local bookstore – sunglasses, Sacha.

How To Be Parisian (Part Deux)

How To Dress Like A French Woman, In Drawings.

This is my second illustration inspired by How To Be Parisian (wherever you are). After finishing the book I felt like drawing another recap. I’ve also been practising my French for about a month now (Oui oui, très bien!) Like everyone else, I secretly want to be Parisian too! I even have a few French-themes items available on Etsy, like this Bonjour Postcard, for example.
