Few days ago I discovered Shannon ♥'s... really a stunning blog that I love to share with you all.
Shannon, the mind and heart behind the blog, is really a lovely person... she is a mother of two children, an interior designer and a creative, she also had for some years an Etsy shop where she sold little girl's dresses... she is a very artistic person who enjoys photography, fashion, design and beauty.
Shannon ♥'s is the place where she blogs about her personal style and looks and everything else that she discover along the way... this blog is the journal of the things that inspired her life... style, fashion, design & all things beautiful.
Here is a glance at some of her looks and fashion hints...








... and now... aren't you curious to see all the other beauties that Shannon discovered for us?

Angel

This unique and fluffy wrap is perfect to keep your shoulders or neck warm while looking stylish... made by a soft pinkish yarn with lilac and grey nuances, this lovely wrap will lend a romantic refinement to any ensemble and will definitely catch attention!!!
All edges are finished off with crocheted lace borders... to provide a perfect fit, the scarflette is fastened with a cute yarn bow that you will button up to your taste into the crochet lace.
“Angel” has a great versatility... you can wear it in many different ways!... change the style to suit your mood... scarflette, capelet, wrap!!!

Mint Mood

FRIDA - capelet/cape

This unique crocheted lace cape is a colorful funky accessory inspired by the great Frida Kahlo and the beautiful colors of Mexico... a precious capelet to wear by day and in the evening as well... a gorgeous piece that can take you through all four seasons with ease... couple it with a turtleneck sweater in Autumn & Winter, or top a sundress in Spring & Summer nights!
“Frida” looks fabulously stylish with jeans or skirts... the open work pineapple design gives just the right amount of cover, warmth and appeal!

WOOD SLICE - embroidered rings

A chestnut branch slice, delicately sits atop a copper toned adjustable ring... the wood slice is simply embroidered with bright cotton threads (red, lime green, hot pink, yellow, lilac/violet, turquoise) and adorned with a little wood bead.
“Wood Slice” ring will be a perfect gift for anyone attuned with nature and the outdoors... or a pinch of forest for your finger!

Friskies

Knitted in a bright salmon pink yarn with pearl grey crocheted lace borders, these armwarmers will keep your hands and wrists warm and cozy, while working on the computer, driving a car, using your phone, handle money or just walking in the town.
“Friskies” will complete your outfit for a special occasion, lend a touch of eye-catching color to everyday wear, or give comfort and style at the keyboard at work!
These fingerless gloves are made for women, so... one size fits most!
Due to the stretchy nature of knitting, they will comfortably fit most women and teenage girls.

… and here is another color combo in a bright sky blue yarn with cream white crocheted lace borders!

Introducing my new mannequin

Finally I found, in a flea market, a lovely vintage dress form… and immediately I felt in love with her… “she” has some little and charming spots due to the time, but is really so stylish and slender!

I had to inaugurate her with some new Peony I made to order in these last days!

Peony in red and white

A new color combo for my Peony scarflette/lariat… the right colors for these days… a mix of snow (we are under a great snowfall since this early motning now) and Valentine’s Day feelings!

Some red tiny hearts decorate a little neckwarmer and a delicate necklace!
