How exciting!

Now....I don't like to post without a few pictures. Here are a few sneak previews of the ZoGirl Spring line! Full blog posts to come!

Dreaming of Spring........

I know we haven't even hit Winter yet, but how l just LONG for Spring. The warmer months are my favorite to design for! While the Spring/Summer lines won't be available until late February, I will be releasing photos of what's to come now. I am adding the trunk show option to ZozoBugBaby and ZoGirl, so in order to prepare and get orders and samples ready, the goods must make a sneak preview!!!

FIrst up....a happy little number for ZoGirl, my line for girls size 6 and up (don't worry, little ones, I have much to come for you, as well!). "The Brielle Dress" was created just with this little model in mind.....sunny and GORGEOUS! I am just in love with this new line of halter dresses which are a bit 50's inspired, with just a smidge of "Old Hollywood", and a dash of Audrey Hepburn. Throw those 3 things into a blender with a box of crayons and VOILA!..you have my upcoming Spring line.

I'm not done yet! A new surprise feature on this line of dresses is the fabric rosette (definitely a Zozo signature look for Spring!). What's even better than just a fabric rosette? One that is attached to your choice of a pin or alligator clip, so it can be moved around the dress (waistband, halter strap, etc..) or even used as a hair accessory! How cool is that??

Now, nothing make a Zozo dress look finer than having it photographed by an AMAAAAAAZING photographer. These shots were created by none other than Kara May. This woman just floors me with her images. I feel so blessed to be able to work with her. See more of Kara's beautiful work at KARA MAY PHOTOGRAPHY.

Now...see this dress, folks! :)

Jennifer Burns Photography!

Jennifer Burns is a relatively new photographer to the ZozoBugBaby lineup, but OHHHHH, how she "gets" it! I ADORE the modern art feel of the background, coupled with the dynamic colors in the outfit! Jen...you rocked my world with these images! Her daughter is so adorable and I created this little outfit just for her! A simple pillowcase-top design, it is easily worn all year long, paired with warm or cool weather accessories! Jen ROCKED it with the colorful tights! Check out Jennifer Burns Photography for more stunning images! The outfit is available in store now!

That Jewelry Girl

I wanted to write about one of my favorite Etsy shops....That Jewelry Girl! Rebecca is a local and we are both fans of each other's work, so we trade (and buy!) from time to time. I have never been much of a jewelry person, but I've pretty much become addicted to Rebecca's gorgeous one-of-a-kind pieces. She has converted me to a jewelry wearer!

I get compliments every time I wear a That Jewelry Girl piece. They are ornate, but simple and the ultimate in feminine accessories! Each one is an art piece. I own rings, earrings and necklaces from Rebecca and I am so excited to pick out what I"ll wear each day!

You really should go browse around her shop, found HERE. Lovely, lovely lady and gorgeous jewelry (even for the woman that doesn't necessarily consider herself an accessories person!).

The perfect shoes for your Zozo!

I was first introduced to Bugaboo Shoe Company by Pascale Wowak Photography. Almost every Zozo shoot Pascale has done has included Bugaboo shoes. Every time she sends new images I always ask, "Where in the world did you find those shoes?". Her answer every time....Bugaboo. The are the PERFECT accessory for any ZozoBugBaby or ZoGirl outfit! SO colorful and unique and like nothing I have seen on the market.

So..I just HAD to have some. I aquired 4 pair just this week and I am IN LOVE. The girls adore the shoes, as well, and they are extremely picky about footwear. The soles are very flexible and the shoes themselves are buttery soft, which makes them extr1emely comfortable. My favorite pair are the orange "Paulina" shoes with the flowers. I have never seen orange shoes for girls!! I'm kind of spoiled now and Bugaboo Shoe Company has ruined me for other brands! The owner, Robin, is a delightful woman (as Pascale said she would be!). If you cruise by her site, tell her I sent you! See the site HERE.

A horse, a dress, a stunning model...and amazing photographer!

Have I ever mentioned that I'm the luckiest gal on Earth? I have the most wonderful, talented photographers contact me. One of the newest photographers in the ZozoBugBaby/ZoGirl line up is Susan Dodd. What is SO different about Susan's work is that she focuses on pets! Susan contacted me with an idea about a photo shoot involving a girl and a horse. I INSTANTLY got a vision in my head of a dress. Unfortunately, I'm keeping those pics under wraps until Spring!

I did send Susan a second dress to photograph, though, and photograph she did!!!!! Not only is her daughter drop-dead gorgeous, but her images are just MAGICAL. I mean...THE HORSES!!!! Poor thing.....the model was allergic! Oh, how we suffer for fashion sometimes. :) THANKS so much, Susan!! Please check out Susan's fabulous site HERE!
