It's Not Always About Clothes

Sometimes we stumble across some gorgeous things that are not clothes.  We love this print fabric sofa.

A Huge Thank you!



I was very pleasantly suprised last night to drop by the lovely Periwinkle Pixies blog http://periwinklepixies.blogspot.com/  to see that I had won their recent giveaway for 2 subway art digital prints.  These fabulous prints will make a beautiful edtion to my home. To see more of Periwinkle's fabulous work visit their etsy shop here etsy shop.  Thank you Jacinda!

Everything Old is New Again

I stumbled across this vintage image the other night and was struck by how similar the style (the beaded collar area) was to a beautiful gown I saw on the red carpet at last week's Golden Globes. This timeless style looks as modern now as it did 40 years ago.

The Unknown Designer

I snapped this image in the window of a New York store last year and fell in love with the dress though I have no idea who designed it, if anyone knows I would love to hear from you!

We love the 1960's inspired hair and make-up in this recent image of Kate Moss.

Nicole in Marchesa


Nicole's Marchesa wedding dress (one of three on the night) was a refreshing breath of fresh air.  It was wonderful to see a bride choose a classic, vintage inspired dress rather than the same strapless, white numbers that most brides opt for today.

Audrey in Casual

We love seeing images of Audrey in more casual attire. Chic and well put together she makes a jaunt to the park look efortlessly appealing.
