Creative Growth X Anthropologie

"Creative Growth Art Center serves adult artists with developmental, mental and physical disabilities, providing a professional studio environment for artistic development, gallery exhibition and representation and a social atmosphere among peers."

Based in Oakland, CA the Creative Growth Art Center has created some of the most darling pieces of art.  Most of their products are stunning and practical.  Anthropologie seems to agree since they have asked three of their artists (Charles Esseltine, Monica Valentine, and Franna Lusson) to produce a mini-collection of goods to be sold as a collaboration between the two companies.  Be sure to head on over to the website on November 3rd to purchase your own collection!!  (Christmas gifts anyone?)

Remember my blogpost on her Fall 2012 Collection?

Fall 2012

The Russian photographer-turned-fashion-designer has us on our knees..  I can't believe this is her first collection and already she's turning heads.  She completely mixes old-fashion with new-fashion to create these articles of clothing.  Simple yet elegant, soft yet fierce.  I also love the way she presents her look-book.  Simple models on a wall-paper backdrop.
She obviously still keeps up her talent as a photographer.
Look at the hairstyles too! (Actually I'm obsessed with this hairstyle....)

Super adorable no?

Vintage but modern?

She's also stunning in person...
