Oh this is wrong...

These are submissions for Design Sponge's Ugly pillow competition. I'll take them. Gladly. That owl is so cute, and that T would be rather perfect chez moi.

Tuesday, I'm in love

But can I have this hair? Can i pull it off? Would it involve endless hours of grooming? I'm sick of looking like Robert Plant.
And.. I like this jacket. Yes I do.

oh a my little kangaroo

These 4 things.





These 4 things... are my 4 true loves. My watch- from TT, my silver swiss army knife- from TT.. and my illy coffee. My tame one cup a day habit. Blanche, my lovely little macbook. If any of these is missing from my day, I feel that something is just not quite right. I once had to run out of the departure lounge, back through customs and out into the main airport to mail my knife back to myself as it was about to be confiscated. I ran like I've never run before. I couldn't risk losing this baby. It has cut me free, it has performed minor surgery, it has helped me make a thousand crafty pretty things. I couldn't live without it.

tiny wantings






More tiny wantings. I am being good, not even going near the shops.. thinking about what I need not what I want.. but if I had endless amounts of money and endless closet space.. I'd get all of the above. All Topshop.

winter wishlist







I shouldn't really have any of them. damn.

Can't get you out of my head

I've got a craving.... for a ham and tomato sandwich on toast. I found this on flickr, but it could literally have been made by my mum. This looks precisely like one of her efforts. So, I'll go tonight and buy the ingredients and I'll make this for dinner, and if it's as good as this I'll surely take a picture.

Wow, beautiful


Sanna Annukka for Cravendale milk. Why can't more packaging be beautiful? It would make the world a much more lovely place to see more of this on the shelves of our supermarkets.

Sugarless halva. Oh yum. I managed to wait until 2.30 to eat one today. Thank god I didn't bring the box in to work... I'd be 8 pieces in by now.

sweetness

Gorgeous Rebecca Turbow coat. Half duffle, half trench, all cute.

Charlotte Ronson for JC Penney. Supercute. I love a shirt that buttons from the back.. Like being dressed as a kid.

Current obsession-




Massive Scarves. 

Dreaming






Of the Savannah College of Art and Design in Lacoste.  I walked past one holiday and saw students in amazing studios nestled into the amazing hills. Massive willow branch sculptures had been created like secret cubby houses and it truly felt alive with people creating. The jealousy and longing to be a part of something like this overtook me. I haven't given up dreaming. Images via flickr and Jack.
