Colour Cool: Julie Thevenot

It always blows my mind when a designer has a collection that spans several different mediums. How awesome is it to be able to design art and jewellery and clothing and do each so well? Taking a look at Julie Thevenot's shop proves that he work is really about designing a lifestyle and she executes it from top to bottom.  My favourite pieces were the Spirit Giant wall display and the Small Exile necklace. Both would fit quite nicely in my imaginary lifestyle.

Discovered over at Pennyweight.

Feminine Things

It's always interesting to me, how small details can change a whole picture.
I changed the sheets (but not the duvet cover) and switch the lime green pillow that used to be on the bed, for the lilac one that was on a chair in the living room and all of sudden the bed looks so much softer and more feminine than I expected.


It's been a nice change, especially since I spent a good portion of the weekend in bed, watching old tv episodes and reading blogs. Oh and I had some company.

Beautiful Garbage - Liz Jones

Collected on shores and then colour-coded, these "Rubbish Rainbows" from Liz Jones really put a bright spin on recycling! I had spotted these here before we left for the cottage and couldn't get them out of my mind. I love how carefully she's categorized everything - who knew garbage could be so punchy?
Some vibrant art is exactly what I need for this morning, a little tired from a nice out with friends.

Stunning Combos - Miss Moss

I have no idea how Miss Moss has the time to put her beautiful colour combinations together, but my goodness she's got such a great eye for it! This series features fashion from Mary Katrantzou coupled with Asian ceramics and prints from Bukowskis. These images stunned me last night as I was blog surfing in bed. I think they were the last thing I thought of before I fell asleep and I woke up thinking about them!
Wonderful work Miss!
Real lovely.
