Catch me outside - chasing cars and romanticizing the mundane.

I say animal print is a neutral and then I make it most definitely not šŸ˜…

But what do you say? Does this read as animal print or no? Iā€™d love to hear your thoughts!

(No I will NOT be styling this piece with my pj pants šŸ˜† just look at the top! Itā€™s been a long day!)

So grateful to for letting me be a part of their Customer Appreciation Days with my pop-up! I love a good collab that pairs sustainable fashion and art! šŸ˜

Wondering how it works?

Step 1: Pick out an awesome find in The Getupā€™s inventory

Step 2: Play around with Eliseā€™s upcycled graphics and how they could fit on your new piece. have fun and make it your own!

Step 3: When you are happy with your design, bring it over to Elise to sew! Iā€™ll be here June 3 & 10 from 2-6pm!

Step 4: Take it home - wear it out. When someone stops you on the street to admire your piece, tell them, ā€œThanks! I designed it!ā€
