It’s Friday! And you know what that means — packing up your car, your picnic basket or your beach bag to enjoy the weekend.
Norma Kamali Mio Swimsuit via Net-A-Porter
Don’t you love this ruched, wrap-around pistachio green swimsuit? It’s a Norma Kamali suit I spotted on Net-A-Porter, and I found it perfect for a laid-back, basking-by-the-pool sketch. The ruching and the soft color give it a sweet, retro vibe, but the wrap-around design and the exposed midriff ramp up the sexiness. The perfect balance between sweet and sultry.
Here’s the fun part about being a fashion illustrator: you get to be a stylist too. Part of my job is “shopping” for the perfect looks for my illustrations. Being an illustrator also means being a hair stylist, lighting director, set designer, art director, all rolled into one. There’s no limit to what you can create when you put pencil to paper.
