Whose that girl?

People compliment the look and style of my blog all the time. I'd love to claim it as my own creation but the truth is it's the work of uber talented designer/illustrator Laura Oster . Her work has appeared in Architectural Digest, The New York Times Magazine, and Garden Design Magazine as well as on the web. I knew I wanted her to design my website when I saw examples of her patterns-which she creates after inspiration from nature, antiques and textiles among other things.

When I saw examples of her illustrations, well, that sealed my website design fate!

I find her work to be charming and relateable yet at the same time sophisticated-without being stuffy. Best of all, she's easy to work with and affordable.
