L'Officiel

I adore these snaps from  L’Officiel Netherlands cover story with French Canadian model Anais Pouliot so much. 

Turlington triumphs again

Okay, everyone else, can step down. Christy's still got it.

This Week

This week.

Things I adore/want/enjoy 

 

Enjoying

Grace Coddington's memoir. I'm savouring it slowly, reading only a few pages at a time, but from the get go, you realize this will be like a conversation - no holds barred. Much like D.V, which I adored.

Covetting 

J.W. Anderson's pre fall collection, all of it of course, but these looks especially. I feel like I want to walk the streets of London, harboring a heartbreak that turned me into a strong, independant, focused career woman. Also, I will probably only drink white russians while wearing these stellar looks.

 Discovering

I'm not good at the art thing, I won't pretend here. But I've recetly discovered Ed Rushka and hot damn I like his things. 

 

 

 

Sonia Rykiel Spring/Summer 2014

 

I love when fashio isn't taken too seriously, don't you? New Sonia Rykiel s/s2014 campaign.

I don't care for men, I care for gentlemen.

This short documentary for Guiness has been the best thing I've seen
all week. I love how these men are such gentlemen, don't you agree that
all men should have a bit of Sapeur inside themselves? This proves that
good shoes and good suit can (sometimes) maketh the (gentle)man.

City walls

I'm living in my own little place now and it's very slowly on it's way to becoming lovely. I do think, though, that these posters in lovely frames would put the cherry on the top of my decor journey.

Don't you?

Celine

This is still undeniably, absolutely cool. 

Celine, you biscuit!

How good does our landscape look as a backdrop for this swedish retailer's campaign.

Commes on.

As always, so imperfect, it's practically perfect in every way.

NYFW

''Bandz a make her dance'' - Band of Outsiders makes me dance! Too good.

NYFW by Ulrich

How utterly fantastic are Ulrich Knoblauch's napshots of New York Fashion Week for Self Service magazine? Like a dust of fresh snow. 

Marc Jacobs, Coke Light

How good? Marc, you do so good.

sweet smelling feet

My darling friends Chelsey and Alison have started a little company named FEAT. sock co. Everybody wears socks, but you can love the socks you wear too! Just look how sweet they are, it's like a treat for your feet. It's always nice to see people you really like and admire doing things this marvelous. 

Take a look at their website and get some for yourself; while you're at it, get some for your brother and for your mother. 

     

 

kind people

Can I please live inside Kinfolk magazine?

New place, new palace?

I've just moved into my own place, which means I now get to come home, climb into bed and watch tv. I leave the dishes until I have no more and I get dressed all over my home, leaving a trail of clothing as I go.

Along with all these bad habits, I am having the best time making my spot snazzy. I have yet to go to woolies and come home without more glasses/wooden spoons. I have fresh flowers in the kitchen, I cook roasts in my oven and I started a windowsill herb garden. Seriously, how great is it having a space to make your own? I just want friends to come over for vino and cheeses! (I have noise sensitive neighbours who may not share my sentiment though) 

I've been poring over Louisa Brimble's life of late. She documents her everyday travels for you and me to enjoy and get jealous over. This series of photographs above makes me want to have lots of bowls and a wooden table and friends who wear jumpers when they come over and help me pick fresh produce for my no fuss garden. Now is that too much to ask for?
