designer of the month :: Sarah Seven

Who :: Sarah Seven

From :: Portland, Oregon

Why I love :: My husband and I have recently decided to really, really take the plunge and move to Los Angeles! I am excited for about a hundred reasons, but I will miss Oregon. I'm highlighting Sarah Seven, not only because of her up-and-coming status, or amazing designs, but also because she is local! Elizabeth Dye is also from Portland, and I have a few more local designers up my sleeve for September and October (at least) until I am a true Californian.

Besides the fact that I love the true talent coming out of Portland, I love the whimsy of all of her pieces. That pretty much sums it up. I am a sucker for whimsy, and that is that. Just look at the picture and you will understand :]

Also... [I will go to the grave that I found her first, but...] Lucky. magazine featured Sarah Seven this month in their September issue. There is a new ebay, Etsy, et all blogger at Lucky via Lucky Right Now. And apparently, she has good taste.

Favorite piece of the moment ::

{ Robins Egg of Sarah Sevens Spring 2009 collection. Seen here at Sarah Seven's website }

Hot little number of blue pleated silk with detailed bodice and a triple layered skirt topped off with a (precious) gold ribbon belt.
