Most Cherished Garment...


This is mine! An old jumer of my mum's, which she stole from her brother when she was younger than me, which I stole off her! I would never throw it away...even though it's old, too big, unflattering and ripoping apart...I love it! I always wear it when I'm tired and in need of cosyness, missing home or feeling unwell.

I have an emotional connection with this garment which is why it is my most cherished one.

What is yours?

Classic luxury...




Jewel Double Lock Satchel
Here is one of my most recent summer finds, one for the wish list! This gorgeous double lock satchel is from a collection of affordable luxury handbags by Rough Roses.

There are some amazing 'investment pieces' on the website http://www.roughroses.com/ which I love...WANT!

Long Long Summer...

Blog...How I've missed you!

It's been over two months since I've blogged, due to summer madness and not enough 'Aim' time! So here I am, slowly getting back into uni/fashion mode... and it's great!

...GO!

Stine Ladefoged ”Narcissism is Calling”...

I found this designers work on www.dazeddigital.com. It reminded me of some of my most recent three dimensional knitting and how she uses traditional techniques in a contemporary way...
