Styling Your Style


One of the most difficult things I have found about blogging, and I am sure I am not alone, is the selection of what makes it to the blog and what doesn't. A lot of the blogs I love are great at this. From the first page you just "get" what the blog is about. Often blogs that a really defined in their styling are also rather specific in their subject matter. One will be all about interiors or mainly about fashion. I find it hard to narrow in because I have purposely intended on keeping my scope wide.
I want to be discovering a lot of different things about a lot of different things.
When I was debating about whether to make the leap into an active member of the blogosphere, a friend of mine told me to just start it and your style will follow.
I'm not sure if that has happened here yet although I have definitely noticed some patterns in what gets posted. I like my art graphic and bright. Usually on either end of a spectrum. Highly ethereal or super bold. Typography turns me on. Thin. Thick. Serifs. Scribbles. More of the graphic world.
But I also like craft. There's a deep longing inside me for crafty things. Hand-sewn. Put together. Natural. Printed. Altered.

So where does that leave Suite Henry?
This is the adventure, no?

I hope that people like what I like because I am excited about whatever does make it to the screen.
I was pretty thrilled to check out Fen and Ned. I found the above images on several pages of the blog and was drawn to the overall style and the inspiration. I love you internet.
