As most of you fashionistas out there are probably aware, the natural world has been a huge source of inspiration for fashion designers all over the globe, from reworking prints such as leopard and zebra to using poweful images of animals such as gorillas and prehistoric animals on T-shirts and dresses. So I decided to get jiggy with the whole animal kingdom inspiration thing and today my muse is the the little ladybird.Tiny it may be, but from a colour perspective it packs a punch, translate that into the world of fashion and you're onto a winning formula, at least for those of you out there, who like to get noticed! Beware this colour combo is not for the faint of heart! My advice keep hair and makeup simple. So here are some of my favourite ladybird looks for this A/W, some as usual are a little playful! In case any of you are wondering, the red and black sculpture of a eighteenth century lady is a cake! Sx

Sharon, thank you so much for adding me to your blog list - very grateful ! Love this post, apparently there are quite a few diferent types of ladybird so in theory you could have quite a few colour combinations - I believe one of them is orange !
Fun inspirations! I love lady bugs and whenever I think of the red/black combo Betty Boop always comes to mind. Happy to see her pictured!
Yes, it is amazing how we can gather inspiration from nature. It's wonderful really. Thanks Sharon for dropping by Beach Vintage and leaving a comment.
