I always love when artists/designers share the inspiration behind their work. Sometimes the translation from inspiration to finished piece is a tad obvious (not my favorite) and other times it seems to be a bit more subtle (the kind I like). That's why the new "Darling Magpie" - Spring 2011 collection from Made by Noemi has me all kinds of breathless.
Designer Noemi Ivanova's "Magpie" inspiration is clear throughout her line, while still maintaining a look that is full of surprise and interest. It also doesn't hurt that the photos and styling of the collection are equally stunning. You're not going to want to miss it, so hop on over and check it out right here.
