Drinks & Dresses

Hey! It's the Kikay Goddess' first post! Today, I wanted to share with you some of the designs of one of my favorite designers, Lela Rose, juxtaposed with cocktail photos by pepper.ph. The dresses are from Lela's Spring 2013 collection. You can check the entire collection at lelarose.com

I have always admired the food photography of the pepper.ph team and loved their fun recipes too! The vibrant colors of their cocktails (and their props) made me think of colorful fabrics and spring dresses. I wouldn't remember how I actually connected the two but usually, I would look at a collection and compare it to food, like, if a dress' shade is pastel I would say "the dress is marshmallow pink". I guess most women also has that tendency to call a color by their food counterpart. There's Salmon Pink, Chocolate Brown, Caramel, Blueberry, Mandarin Orange and the list goes on and on. I'm sure you're now thinking about other food-color names. :)

So I went all matchy matchy and picked out color schemes from the cocktail photos that went with the super fabulous dresses from Lela's. Her designs are all something that I would definitely wear. I think the cut and silhouette of the dresses will suit and flatter many shapes. 

Overall, this is my take on the color trends of Spring 2013 made more fun with cocktails. Anyway, it's almost always more fun if there's a bit of alcohol, right? :)

Don't forget to check out pepper.ph. They are also on Facebook and Pinterest! :)
