I’ve been pretty lucky in the shopping department lately. some things I have recently purchased

// Tytär dress from Marimekko
(I bought it in NYC, I feel very lucky)

// Gateway Shoes from Fluevog Shoes
(these babies are so good, I thought them in LA, I feel very very lucky!)

// Ayame Socks from Dagmar Rousset
(from Melbourne. The lovely shop girl is just divine)

// Green Fleur Hat from ALL Knitwear
(yet to arrive, purchased online with Kit Palaskas who has opened my eyes to colours beyond blue)

This is Honey and she is my new puppy.
And yes, she is perfect.

time freaks me out.  I always forget when I am doing something, or making something, or snapping something, or listening to something that one day, as a result of time, I will look back and remember those things and the memories that went with them.  I always say to myself that I want to take more photos.  It isn’t until it is 2012 and I look back at flickr photos from 2010 that I realise why.

Los Angeles highlight?

Visiting the LACMA and seeing Charles and Ray Eames actual living room on display.  As in, taken from their house, then set up in the museum, with the actual furniture and bits and pieces, as it was, in their home.

The rest of the California Design exhibition was equally mind blowing.  See here.  And here.  Honestly, it felt naughty it was that good.

// first two images were taken by me, the third is of course the beautiful Eames DCW dining chair.

I just arrived home from an amazing New York (+ Los Angeles) adventure with the most amazing Angela D’Alton.  As a result of Ange’s Etsy job, I was able to be involved in some pretty amazing things.  Such as meeting super special people and wearing an Etsy badge whilst helping out at the Etsy Success Symposium.  Pinching myself right about now.

Snaps are by me, you can see many many more at Paris + Berlin (and yes, we need to change the name to include Sydney, Los Angeles and NEW YORK).
