Victoria spotted this collection of navy prints while shopping in stores and online. Are you using navy in your collections? I love navy and find it to be a much cheerier option to black.
It is a three day work week for most of us here in America, tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and I am looking forward to the first holiday with our new little girl, Ruth. With the year winding down I am doing a lot of reflecting on what I could do to improve this space, this community, of talented, driven designers. What posts would you like to see more of? What tutorials would help to grow your business? Please let me know, I would love to hear from you! We have lots of exciting news for 2013 so get ready for some major shifts in your business! Lots of love- Michelle
