Weekend Adventure / Shadow Catchers at V&A


















































































































This exhibition is an absolute must see. It is a real inspiring and revitalising exhibition about an art form I have really never considered before as a whole. I was especially blown away by the work of Susan Derges. Her work for me show the honest beauty of nature, and how magical it is.

Monday wear / Berlin Fashion Week / Schumacher







































Love these laser cut 70ies floppy hats shown at the Schumacher show last week at Berlin Fashion Week.

Inspiration / Hannah Murray for Lula Magazine Issue 8








































Just stumbled upon these great pictures from an old issue of Lula Magazine from 2009. I always liked Hannah Murray's style and especially the styling of her character in Skins. Photos Lula magazine.

Hello!


























I have posted so much fashion this week, I thought it was right to throw some other interesting finds of the week out there. Just stumbled upon this cute little animal head coat rack at the ohcomely blog. It is by British design duo Carl Clerkin and Ed Ward.


Haute Couture Love





























Explosions of coloured feathers at Maurizio Galante, giant head gear inspired by the Japanese art of butoh at Givenchy, and 10 million beads used and Karl Lagerfeld in a not black, but navy blue suit at Chanel. Haute Couture is a dream land.

Clean, simple and playful, perfect Stella campaign. She must have chosen the best legs in fashion pt as well! Very aspirational. Shot by the amazing Mert & Marcus.

Margo's house































My friend Margo had us around for home-made curry on the weekend (4 different kinds of curry actually) She is not just a great cook and hostess but also an incredible woman and vintage buyer. She has a profound love of everything from the 70ies and her house is a wonder to visit.

Monday wear / Pre-Fall 11 / Stella McCartney











































Love the near to coporate colour palette, the comfortable and 'proper' shapes and obviously the amazing intarsia knit! via style.com

Monday wear / Pre-Fall 11 / Proenza Schouler










































Knitwear and print heaven! There is something so ever recognisable about the colour palettes of Proenza Schouler and how everything is always balanced perfect against black so it still stays cool and refined. They are true masters.

Monday wear / Pre-Fall 11 / Nina Ricci










































I can't wait for spring and then I can't wait for autumn, especially when it comes elegantly, romantic, sultry and city casual like this. Love the lavender skirt with the little aqua green over the shoulder bag, the floppy 70s hat and the amazing cream outfit. That textured creamy cropped jacket with contrast trims is to die for! all photos via style.com

Friday Inspiration






































I just stumbled upon these great pictures from a Lula Magazine long time ago. All the way back in 2009. I have always loved Hannah Murray's style and I think the styling of her character in Skins and in this shoot, is an amazing electric mix of british rose with a twist. Photos via Lula Magazine.
