Philippe Starck Please



It all boiled down to one inevitable conclusion...

I need a Louis Ghost chair.

Marry Me?



I received this Peter Alexander mug for my birthday.
Apparently when the giver saw it they immediately thought of me.
I'm hoping this is because they know that I like large, gold costume jewellery, as opposed to them thinking I am desperate to be married....

Either way I LOVE it.

YUMYUM.




Had lunch at my new favourite cafe today. So good.

I had the 'Lunchbox' (1st pic) which includes...
a rice mix thing, chicken roll, sesame dipping things in a cute paper cup and a pistachio cupcake. (I know, I'm great at remebering the actual names of things)
This comes in a box if you get takeaway. Genius!

2nd pic is a burger........obviously. yummy.

...but forget the food...it's the detail in the presentation that makes me like this place.

Think About It...



"Everybody in a band now has their reference - I want to look like Joy Division, I want to look like The Stones, I want to look like Jack White, But look at those guys, what were their references?"

- Nic Briand, one half of the label Lover, interviewed in Russh September/October 2009

I believe this applies to not just bands, but fashion in general.

Obviously



This is exactly what I look like when I go hiking....
doesn't everyone??

Question: Is this Natalia??

Golly Gosh



I never thought I would say this....but fake flowers can be attractive.
(As shown above in this photo by Alan Lund Gard)

Or maybe I just like this photo and they would be revolting in real life. Hopefully...because then my world would make sense once again.

Imogen the Impala and I


Imogen the Impala (introduced her in my first post) and I just hanging out.

RUN, DON'T WALK!



New Yorker Paula Hayes, creates these whimsical silicone 'blob-like' planters.

She describes them as, "soft like skin and a little jiggly", in July/August Australian Vogue Living.

They are so appealing to me....

tack-y/ tæki/ [tak-ee]



My gold boots are....crass; cheaply vulgar; tasteless; crude, and above all TACKY.

However I am completely in love with them...we have been in a relationship now for 4 months. It's getting serious.

I believe everyone should own something seriously tacky....it makes life so much more enjoyable. Trust me.

Amen




St. Bartholomew's, Czech Republic.

Yes. That is a Church. And yes, those are Panton chairs with cross cut-outs.
If there was a Church like that near me, I might consider attending.

So Arty



By Ellen Rogers

"I am a London based photographer. All my work is analogue and does not utilise any digital equipment or computer based manipulation (other than scanning the end result). My techniques mostly come from experimentation with traditional darkroom processes."


I want to say something pretentious here about the colours evoking a particular mood....

but I won't.

I'll just say......Two very enthusiastic thumbs up. Fine holiday fun.
