New Header by Rach of Visual Basic

This is a bittersweet post for me, but almost all sweet!  Pretty much everyone that visits my blog LOVED my old header and made sure to tell me so, and so did I (I made it, so of course I would like it).  But I felt that it didn't really represent the title of the blog, "Closet Fashionista," since it was just a picture of a pretty model...so I felt a change was needed, luckily I found the solution!

A few weeks ago I saw a GORGEOUS header that Rach at Visual Basic did for A Cup of Style.  I headed to her blog and was going to email to ask if she would do one for me, luckily she had decided to accept commissions for headers!  So I sent her some shots of my favorite clothing I own, so it is all featured in the header (the bags are just lust items, the Proenza Schouler PS1 and Chanel 2.55 ;) )

I love her blog SO much, everyone needs to check it out.  Every Sunday she does a "Blogger Sketch" post where she does beautiful sketches of fellow bloggers, she is so talented!

What do you think?! I LOVE it :D (The old header will still be in the Shop though)

    I love your new header! How much did she charge you for commission? I'm thinking of getting one soon :)

    I was approached by The Dune Group, who said you recommended my blog - so thankyou if you did! :)

    Oh I love it Meg! I do love the old header and I'm glad you are keeping it as everytime I see it in my blog, it makes me smile!

    I have been thinking of re-doing my header too, actually since the beginning as my current one is something I kinda made myself, can you believe that amateurish bit took me hours and hours?

    Just wanna say sorry for being MIA BUT - want to thank you so much for the vote! Really appreciate it, big time!

    I like this one too but the old one was so pretty. I would suggest to add a little more color to the drawing. That blue color that is so much this blog.
