There is so much talent and creativity floating around the blogosphere at the moment. Three people in particular, Sarah, Anja and Tara-Lynn, are constantly knocking my socks off with their brilliant ideas and ambitious projects.
In my opinion, these ladies are living the dream: working for themselves and doing exactly what they want to do. In the hope that you’ll be just as inspired as I am, I thought I’d share some of their latest endeavors here.

Sarah is a genius. That’s the only possible explanation. How else could she come up with such wonderful designs? Not only is her jewellery unique, you can also tell that a lot of care and attention to detail has gone into every element, from the hand water-coloured paper right down to the findings that hold it all together.
I bought one of her necklaces from the last collection and I can honestly say that it’s one of my favourite pieces of jewellery. It’s incredibly well made and the design is so versatile that you can wear it with anything (in fact I’m wearing it right now).
The extra great thing about these is that the styling was done by another talented lady whose blog I regularly devour, Siri. Have you seen her Polyvore sets? Siri has the best eye for basics and knows how to style them in a way that will have you clicking through on every piece in the desperate hope that you’ll be able to afford it.

I am so excited that Anja has brought out her own line. Her first mini collection is full of wearable basics made out of fabrics such as silk charmeuse and rayon and she’s also sourced some fantastic prints. I am loving the space witch vibes that I’m getting from these pieces.
It really doesn’t seem that long ago when Anja was posting about her sewing lessons and I’m amazed by how far she’s come already. She must be one super-talented lady, and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for Ann-ya in the future. Inspiration central.

Tara-Lynn’s knits just keep getting better and better. I think part of the reason why I love them so much is because I’m so inspired by Tara-Lynn’s aesthetic in general. I love the simple, slightly androgynous feel to her styling. And then there’s the fact that those knits just look so incredibly chunky and cosy.
If you follow me on Twitter you’ll know that I’ve just started knitting myself, but it’s taking me so long! I now have a much greater appreciation for Tara-Lynn’s talent, she must be some kind of knitting machine.
