This is hard to actually put into words, because the answer can be almost anything on any given day. Sometimes creativity just strikes. There are a few specific places we like to go, however, when the need for inspiration strikes.
Before I get into this I first have to tell you about my new favorite store. Anyone who knows me knows the one thing that makes my heart begin to pitter-pat and my toes start to twinkle is anything vintage. If it looks like it’s from a decade past I will probably love it. So, while Saylor and I were in Fredricksburg recently we went into the most fabulous store ever. My head nearly exploded from excitement. I couldn’t look at everything fast enough. Serious vintage overload. I may have to move in. And be still my heart…..they have a BLOG! Check it out: www.redinfred.com
So where else do we look for inspiration? Besides a slew (yes, I just used the word slew) of blogs and my newest obsession Weddinggawker.com these are our favorite brands to look to for inspiration:
Cindy
- Anthropologie-need I even explain?
- Sprinkles cupcakes-seriously, a store that ONLY sales cupcakes. Heaven.
- Lucky Brand Jeans–I’m obsessed with the tags on their jewelry.
- Lush Handmade Cosmetics
- BeneFit Cosmetics–such clever packaging
Saylor
- The Buckle–he has a mind obsession with their shirts
- Don’t Tread on Me–check out their cool style
- Magpul–yes, they make gun parts, but check out their AWESOME photos!
- Lucky Brand Jeans
- Levi’s (vintage brand)
The labels, packaging, style and photos used by these companies are serious inspiration for us. What inspires you?
