After more than a year of blogging, I still get a thrill at finding inspiration in the unlikely and the quotidien. I feel a small kinship with one of my favorite designers, Mary Katrantzou, who sought to “discover the beauty in the everyday” for her Fall 2012 Ready-to-Wear Collection. For her renowned prints, she used spoons, phone dials, typewriter keys, luggage tassels and clothes hangers to mesmerizing effect.
