The cards I make are never as good as I hope. Not quite reaching the standard of little designers / letterpressers like Elizabeth Weil at Paperwheel. Sorry for the second letterpress post in a month. There are way too many invites for engagements and weddings at the moment so my head is just filled with… Continue reading paperwheel.

musings :: gia coppola.
I wish I were French - have I said that before? Even more than that, I wish I were a part of the Coppola family (um, and Jason Schwartzman is in the family too!). One of the most talented, creative families ever, with generations of amazingness in their blood. And so the attention turns to Gia… Continue reading musings :: gia coppola.
white walls.
Simple white walls can make a house. But not those stark, cold, and lifeless ones. You have to bring the life to that beautiful wall. Like covering it with different frames, prints and photos. It would be just like having a giant inspiration wall - no longer limited to your corkboard. Or jazzing it up… Continue reading white walls.
philosophy of fashion.
For all those out there who think fashion people are ridiculous, self-obsessed, greedy humans, listen to these wise words. Virginie Mouzat really knows her stuff, she isn't just cotton-balling the fashion industry. She has been in the thick of it for basically all her life. From the modelling side to the writing side, she has… Continue reading philosophy of fashion.
barcelonan for a day.
Yes, I did google what people from Barcelona are called. The photographs of Berta Pfirsich are an absolute treat. Such joyful and happy fashion photography right here. The collection below are from a shoot dubbed "Spice Girls", which made me immediately love them. Glory days. And then it is this crazy futuristic scene with glitter and… Continue reading barcelonan for a day.
triangle press.
Arlena Armstrong knows some of my favourite things and she isn't afraid to exploit that. Triangles, stationery, brown paper, creativity. SHE HAS IT ALL. I know I would definitely be sending a lot more snail mail if I had some of these pretties to post off. All with their lovely vintage objects printed on. I… Continue reading triangle press.
reliving fausto puglisi.
Spring 2013 RTW. These patterns are the greatest and will never grow old. Fashion that can outlive the fads and trends that constantly go in and out is a truly precious thing. Especially amidst these times of sweatshops, cheap labour and poorly produced clothing. I would much rather save up to purchase something that I… Continue reading reliving fausto puglisi.
apartamento.
I want my future who-knows-when apartment to look and feel just like this. Like it's a lot bigger than it really is, and warm, homey and inspiring. These two are writers so I could probably never reach their coolness level - I bet they do all their writing / work from home just because it's… Continue reading apartamento.
want list :: a rock garden for your hand.
A wise lady once said "if I was a rich girl - na na na na na na na". Thank you Gwen Stefani for perfectly outlaying how I feel. Well there are a lot of things I would probably do and buy if I were rich, and not all as selfish as you may think… Continue reading want list :: a rock garden for your hand.
inspiration wall :: may.
The chill of those winter months has already begun, and thoughts of warm soups with sourdough and hot chocolates are becoming more regular. A little bit too soon though I would say. Yesterday I ventured on a bike ride, but became so out of breath purely because of the icy wind stealing the air out… Continue reading inspiration wall :: may.
