We are almost done with November for another year, and how fast this one has been. An absolute whirlwind. It feels like only yesterday that I started working full time in my real job. As the countdown to Christmas begins, I think we need another burst of inspiration and a push to make it to… Continue reading musings :: sophie lowe.

new yorker for a day.
These photos are getting me even more excited for summer, if that is even possible. I crave the constant warmth and outdoor time. After a crazy busy week all I want to do is relax on the beach, and try to get rid of my terrible swimming-back-tan. It's people like Kelsea Kosko who I find… Continue reading new yorker for a day.
obviously laura.
Laura Blythman is the ultimate kindergarten kid, and I absolutely adore it. She perfectly reflects my love of cutting and pasting and all things paper. One day, when money is never a fear, maybe I will just scrapbook my life away and collect even more ever-increasing piles of patterned paper and magazine cut-outs. There must… Continue reading obviously laura.
anatomy of :: slides.
Since I can't handle blood and guts and internal organs, I thought maybe I would study the anatomy of something I actually enjoy instead. Hence my new series. I won't lie, when I first saw these were coming back into fashion, after many blissful years without, my heart dropped. Yes, the 90's had some good… Continue reading anatomy of :: slides.
room of glass.
A sheet of glass can change everything. Adds some light, adds some space, and makes everything so much better. This clever little office was updated with two completely glass walls - it's the next best thing to open offices. Plus the rest of the floor is pretty snazzy too. I could never work in a… Continue reading room of glass.
want list :: tibi + something more.
I always write my blogs in front of the TV. The thoughts come to me during the day (or in the shower - I desperately need a waterproof notebook), and then they come alive at night. I was at the birth of the multi-screen phenomenon and have been a serial offender ever since. Killing two birds… Continue reading want list :: tibi + something more.
patchwork backpack.
What an emotional few days. My best friend is now married, and on her way for some fun overseas adventures; I'm seriously sleep-deprived and in need of a week's recovery. And I am completely jealous of this honeymoon. An amazing trip in Mexico and Jamaica? Yes puh-lease. Mexico has always been my dream destination, ever… Continue reading patchwork backpack.
photoshoot :: all painted.
Some of my favourite fashion editorials ever are those that involve some kind of weird face paint / body paint / war paint. Either that or they have crazy make up and feathers in their hair. To me, photo shoots should be like a dream - people never could actually pull off these outfits, or… Continue reading photoshoot :: all painted.
manspiration :: issey miyake.
It's time for some manspiration again. The last few days have been absolutely nuts with life going off in all ways - work is crazy, the wedding is on Sunday (probably more stressed than the bride) and sleep is little. So I decided to treat myself with some fashion. Surprisingly no menswear show looks the… Continue reading manspiration :: issey miyake.
blue.
I made my favourite Gwyneth meal tonight (some cauliflower and chickpea deliciousness, excited for lunch over the next couple of days), so it's put me all in a good mood again. Food influences my feelings and reactions towards life way too much - it's almost scary. Even though I am dead tired and am lacking… Continue reading blue.
