Easter, time to get inspired

Holidays for me are finally the time to sit down, relax and enjoy all the guilty pleasures of free time as well as to have a longer than usual moment to think what matters to me and what genuinely inspires me. Despite the beautiful sun and the park blooming in all colors of spring, it is still really chilly. Therefore, there is lots of time for reading, watching and just really appreciating the moment. In the middle of all those, I stumbled upon a California-born and designer who really caught my attention, her name is Heidi Merrick and she really knows how to flatter a woman with a dress.Her clothes reflect California sun, nostalgia of the surfing freedom and pure spirit of femininity. Just have a glimpse.

Much more about Heidi Merrick her inspirations, ideas, passions can be found on her website. The other woman who inspired me some time ago but the memory of her was evoked again thanks to the last edition of the Lonny Magazine is one and only Florence Broadhurst, Australian born wall-paper designer and socialite who lived her life to the fullest. For those who want to find out how her design inspired last Kate Spade collection, I highly recommend the book. Her wallpapers are so about life, elements of inevitably changing seasons and beauty. "Life by Design" by Siobhan O'Brienn.

In a very fast paced reality of a big city life, and New York I love you and curse you for that. It is important to remember that every great idea starts with great confusion, pain and frustration and looking at the example of the above mentioned women, it is just so much easier to believe that and keep being inspired and inspire. Happy Easter!
