GAINSBOURG

I love french cinema, so the new film about Serge Gainsbourg is definitely on the list. I've been listening to his daughter Charlotte on my ipod for a while now...I love the drums in IRM.

ANYTIME WANG

I love Wangs SS11 resort collection, then again hes always pretty good is'nt he.









PINK CAST

I took one for the team on this...I knew it would really make my work pals laugh when they saw this. They love taking the mickey out of my pink straighteners, pink camera and pink gems on my phone.

I secretly love my pink cast really, I look so happy with my broken elbow.

HEAL ME

I bought a citrine crystal pendant from the rock corner in the Rye antique shop. Turns out its the best crystal to promote healing and also brings in money which is a nice added bonus.

Something to look forward to

I'm getting out of the house tomorrow, first trip out with arm in sling.

We're off to Rye, I was last there on my birthday and bought a shark tooth charm from the antiques and curios shop in the pic. Excited about what I'll find in there tomorrow.

Safety first

So...the reason I fell of my bike is really stupid. My lovely but not bike-practical Cristopher Kane bag got caught in my backwheel.

I was coveting a swedish 'fjallraven kanken' in a shop in Berlin, wish I'd bought one.

This pink and blue one is brilliant.

Broken bone

Firstly, sorry for the lengthy absence. I was so busy and then all of a sudden not.

I came off my beloved bicycle last week and broke my elbow. Had to have an operation that involved some wiring (passed out when I found that bit out!), but on the mend recuperating in lovely Kent at home.

I broke my Ulna at the round olecranon bit, the wires are in there to hold them back together for the rest of my days. Bit odd.

Heres a diagran from Grays anatomy just to be clear.......

Chanelling flamenco

I recently saw Anna Calvi..I loved her slicked hair, high collar and cumberbund. She was chanelling flamenco right down to her cuban heels.



Seems like Fanny is into it too..love her shoot with those spanish eyebrows

This is fanny, she has a cave



Fanny is a painfully cool French girl who I've met at the vintage fairs I do with my Mum. She specialises in 90's couture and her pieces are amazing. She has a studio (also known as her cave) where she hires/sells her collection, off to an appointment there tomorrow. Can't wait.

I really like her styling too...

A spring bear



'I really like you Midori. A lot.'
'How much is a lot?'
'Like a spring bear,' I said.
'A spring bear?' Midori looked up again. 'What's all that about? A spring bear.'
'You're walking through a field all by yourself one day in Spring and this sweet little bear cub with velvet fur and shiny little eyes comes walking along. And he says to you, 'Hi, there, little lady. Want to tumble with me?' So you and the bear cub spend the whole day in each other's arms, tumbling down this clover-covered hill. Nice, huh?'

I really love the book I'm reading.

Sun, moon and stars


I was reminissing about my old bedroom with my friend yesterday....apparently I was'nt the only one with a sun, moon and stars obsession. Think it was changing rooms fault, I stencilled these all over my walls. Kind of like them again.

Disco bracelet

Another lovely Kabiri number.

80's mints



No surprises that I love these..I was born in the wrong era.

Birthday list


I would love my friends forever if they gave me these friendship bracelets for my birthday (from Kabiri by the way).

If I was alive in the victorian times..

.....this lady would be my style icon.

Performance birds


Is it cruel to trap little birds in a room and make them make music by flitting around and hitting electric guitar strings? Apparently not as they are specially trained birds..used to performing.

My two favourite things

Frede



This is Frede, the sweetest Danish girl wearing the comfiest piece of clothing I've ever seen by Danish label Dansk. I want an all-in-one tracksuit.

Jesus walked on water, Peaches walks on you.



Peaches announce this and then proceeded to walk across the audience at Nasa in Rejkyavik, mental!

Kaldas scare hair







Icelandic label Kalda seem to have an obsession with hair in their shoots...amazing but slightly terrifying.

Fierce



Inspiration for the models at Kaldas show on Reykjavik fashion week.

Forget nail art...lip art.
