Book of Deer

  Today I'm excited to share with you some exceptionally lovely designs from Hong Kong and London based designer Elidh Ho! Her brand is known as Book of Deer, and her online shop consists whimsical dresses, tops, and skirts that feature her ultra cute hand-drawn prints. Elidh is the sweetest girl ever-- she sends the clothes wrapped up in this adorable packaging (it has a hand drawn deer on it!) and she even included a cute little pin, stickers, and a hand-written note in the parcel that she sent me.♥  I'm so happy that I had the opportunity to collaborate with her as she is such a small and independent clothing designer that produces such wonderful garments that deserve to be recognized! Elidh is incredibly talented and her work is so inspiring. Also, I absolutely love the themes that she releases with each season (for example, her S/S 2015 collection had a "Country Kitchen" theme, which I'll showcase in a couple of the following images  ｡◕‿◕｡).

Enjoy! And please be sure to check out her designs at http://bookofdeer.com

Here's a photo of the super cute packaging that the clothes came in! Just look at that hand drawn deer~

Dress: Book of Deer

Tights: HUE Sheer Dot Tights

Shoes: ASOS Molly Flats

This perfect blue dress isn't actually available to buy on her website, as it didn't quite make production-- so I am so so so very grateful that she offered to send it to me after I noticed it in her S/S 15 lookbook and asked about it. I love it so much, it's definitely a dream dress of mine! The blue is such a icy, delicate color and of course I can't help but adore the cute little embroidered forks and spoons that cover the skirt portion. Thanks again Elidh! ♥

Shirt: Book of Deer Kitchen Blouse 

Skirt: Urban Outfitters

Hat: Thrifted from L Train Vintage

Ah! Look at the incredibly beautiful detail of the hand stitched tea kettle, silverware, and little plants on this amazing collar. This shirt from her S/S 15 "Country Kitchen" collection truly showcases Elidh's wonderful talents, and I'm just so truly inspired by her skill. If there was a perfect collar 2015 contest, then this blouse would win it. 

Dress: Book of Deer Stillness Dress

Tights: HUE Sheer Dot Tights

Shoes: Wanted Oxfords

And last but not least, here's the beautiful velvet Stillness Dress from Elidh's A/W 2014 collection - "Hibernation". I ordered this last December or so when I first discovered her shop, and since then I've been wearing it as much as possible (too much) because it's just so perfectly designed. The velvet fabric is incredibly soft and fuzzy, and the little bears on the bow are such a perfect little added touch-- they actually remind me of the California bear (which is where I'm from). Once again, such truly incredible detail!

Thanks for viewing, and once again- be sure to check out Book of Deer (if not just to scroll through her adorable lookbooks). (´・ω・`)
