Hello there,
Well, here is my attempt of buliding up an inspiration board. I don't have a certain theme or style, but I tried to sum up some of the fashion styles I like (Dramatic, Simple, Whismical, Neat, flowy, sparkly, etc). I hope some of you find my selections inspiring :)

-------------------------
Hello again,&nbsp;
firstly, allow to express my gratitude to everyone who left a comment and liked my inspiration board. I really appreciate it =D Secondly, I've attached my attempts in sketching and was able to sketch two pictures only. I'm not sure about my feelings for my sketches, but I believe that they need more editing and lots of practice to be able to sketch people and fashion properly. Your feedbacks are highly appreciated.
Sketch 1:
