 I love this time of year, when hearts abound, love is in the air and I get to draw lots of beautiful loving couples!  Some couples choose to have a heart above their custom Valentines portrait with their initials in it. Others want hearts on the side and some want both or none ;)  Hope everyones significant others love their surprise custom Valentines Portraits!

 Such a beautiful morning live illusting at the ML Monique Lhuillier Resort press event. I snapped a quick photo of the guests when they arrived. While they perused the new collection I drew up their custom portait illustration, which they picked up on their way out with a fresh floral bouquet :)   { For more information on live fashion illustration and bookings for your next event contact me here }
xxx Laura It was so fabulous kicking off NYFW live sketching at the W's annual IT GIRL lunch!  The event was hosted by W’s editor at large, Lynn Hirshberg, in partnership with Botkier at the beautiful Mr. C Seaport, celebrating the It Girls in film, music, TV, fashion, and more.  During the cocktails the guests got to have their looks illustrated followed by a lovely lunch.  All the wonderful guests got gifted a custom portait to take home as well as a Botkier side bag.  The lovely founders of Botkier New York { For more information on live fashion illustration and bookings for your next event contact me here }
xxx Laura  It was such joy kicking off NYFW at the Bloomingdales NYC Flagship store! Growing up I'd spend hours in my room pouring over the pages of the Bloomingdale catalogs. I'd pretend it was my job to illustrate for them and would recreate the beautiful looks that filled their pages....What a full circle moment!  Thank you to everyone who came out to get drawn, those who I got to meet and the lovely Bloomingdales Team! What a great night! { For more information on live fashion illustration and bookings for your next event contact me here ♥ }
xxx Laura  What a lovely time live illustrating for The Vision Council's 2 day press event at the BWR Showroom! Editors and guests got to try on their favorite shades and glasses, that I then drew them wearing in their custom portait illustration.  It was so fabulous to getting to meet and chat with the wonderful faces behind some of my favorite fashion publications. Until next time..
{ For more information on live fashion illustration and bookings for your next event contact me here ♥ } xxx Laura It was such an honor partnering once again with the fabulous Triumph Hotels for New York Fashion 2017. I illustrated live at each of their 7 beautiful boutique hotels, creating custom fashion illustrations in honor of NYFW.  Each hotel had a background unique to its location and the landmarks around it. The guests were then drawn into that Hotel's scene, making it a true NYFW moment. It was such a delight getting to meet and draw the most lovely people from all across New York City, The US and the world!  { For more information on live fashion illustration and bookings for your next event contact me here ♥ }

It was so fabulous illustrating live at the Twitter Headquarter during NYFW for the Niche + Twitter Creators First Event!  The space was divided into many different rooms featuring various cool activities...I shared a room with a lovely makeup artist, while she touched up faces I sat on the sofa and illustrated custom portraits for the long queue of people snaking out of the door ( thank you guys 😘😘)  I absolutely loved the pulsing creative energy there and meeting and drawing fab new peoples! Until next time! { For more information on live fashion illustration and bookings for your next event contact me here ♥ }
xxx Laura  I had the pleasure of live illustrating at the Paramus Neiman Marcus Last Call Studio, Spring Trend Event this past Thursday. It was great to meet and illustrate customers including one adorable soon to be customer - a little 5 year old personality who was out shopping with his mom and dad.  I love how this fab customer styled her portait with her Louboutins. Thanks for tagging me on Instagram Magdallena!

Was so much fun collaborating with La Prairie on these custom fashion illustrations. They challenged me to an artistic interpretation of their new Swiss Cellular Illuminating Mask.  I loved the little samples and gifts they sent along with it that I had to create these "La Prairie" ladies as well! ( I saw 'heads' and a 'dress' as soon as I opened the package ;)  Can't wait to pamper myself again with these lovely rejuvenating masks and all the other spectacular goodies!
Until next time! xx Laura  - Live fashion illustration at Triumph Hotels - For NYFW 2016 I had the honor of partnering with Triumph Hotels and illustrating live at three of their beautiful hotels over the course of fashion week. On Day 2 I illustrated at The Iroquois Hotel. It was so lovely meeting fashion bloggers, fashion enthusiasts and the fashion editor of Elle Canada herself, Juliana Schiavinatto and doing a facebook live with Elle. On Day 3 the live fashion illustration took place at the Hotel Chandler in their lovely library. Among all the fabulous guests, I met a fashion forecaster, NY Times Investigative reporter ( who had to run out in middle to investigate a case - no joke! ) and lots of other fashionable guests. Until next fashion week!
