I ♥ Kate Spade (NY)

I'm a little obsessed with designer Kate Spade of New York, and frequently visit her website to check out the new treasures available. I am in love with these idiom bangles, each engraved with a cute little phrase. I love the fiery red bangle "take heart" the best, but any would be a treat! 

Click click.

I've been an admirer of polli jewelry for a while now and only recently noticed that they have a range of pendants and brooches made from wood. I love me a wooden brooch, and these little beauties remind me of my Diana mini. It's definitely one for the wish list! 

Beautiful Bunny.

I love pretty little dishes to store my keepsakes and jewellery and as my love bird ring dish is quite small i thought the addition of this beautiful little bunny dish would be a perfect fit for my room. I picked it up while in Melbourne this weekend for a concert, i found it at sportsgirl of all places?!

Love birds.

A little over a month ago I attended a wedding in the beautiful seaside town of Sorrento, we were staying for a few days so i had pelnty of time to walk around the town and check out the shops.
One store in particular tickled my fancy, they had a huge range of white bone china ornaments, dishes and vases. I fell in love with the smallest piece, this little love heart shaped dish with two love birds. So cute! It was a must have for my room and now it houses my most precious rings.

Not Tuesday.



I saw a post on Frankie magazines site about the etsy store Not Tuesday, I love their handmade beads that aren't quite round and the beautiful colours! If only i hadn't just spent all my money booking my holiday.

Beautiful brogues.

I should be saving my money, and mostly i am, but when i saw these lovely topshop woven brogues on ebay needing a good home i couldn't stop myself. They were a bargin so i don't feel so guilty and they'll be perfect for the upcoming spring weather. I just love the double buckles!

Waiting for the Sun

I am in love with these sunglasses, they're from brand 'waiting for the sun', how fitting. I have a bit of an obsession with bamboo products so when i saw these french made beauties i was in heaven, and lucky for me they're stocked in Australia!! This is definitely one for the wish list.

Cleaning out my wardrobe

I've been having a big cleanout of my house, especially my wardrobe, to make it easier when it comes time to move house.

I decided to sell the very best vintage pieces on ebay and donate the other pieces. I have about 20 items that are on auction and have buy it now prices for the hasty buyer.

You can check it out here!

Luxury leather

 

My sister works at this lovely local leather goods store and when i went to visit her today i couldn't resist this great sized, handmade, black leather Lambada overnight bag, yum!

It's a real splurge but whenever i'm off for the weekend my bags are either to small or to big but not this, it is just right! I can't wait to test it out next weekend when i head to Melbourne. 

Whats the time Mr Wolf?

I'm on ebay quite a bit and have been searching for a good quality watch for a while ever since my "cheapo" watch broke and finally i found the perfect one, it's the Nixon Elle watch and it has a really cool flip face with polished bamboo on the reverse. It's the perfect watch for me because it's so silm it fits my tiny wrist and doesn't look ridiculously big, i love the little bit of lavender on the face.

Rabbit Ring

My sister recently went on a holiday to Perth and visited a shop we both love, Pigeonhole. She got me this gorgeous gold Rabbit ring, which i first saw on muso Bertie Blackman.

Pigeonhole have the most beautiful bags and purses and are also part of the impossible project bringing back polaroid film. Their online store is well worth a look!

Packing Post.

I've seen on a few blogs posts about packing for trips and the "what's in my hand bag" posts and decided it was a good time for me to give it a go because i'm off to Melbourne for a girls trip tomorrow before seeing my sister off at the airport.

I have been very good and picked my outfits carefully so don't pack anything i won't need. To drive to Melbourne and have a shop I have my new grey jumper and mustard scarf with jeans and brogues, for going out for dinner I have a new terracotta woven top from staple with black jeans and black platform lace ups and for taking my sister to the airport and driving home i have my khaki green dress with leather jacket tights and booties. Oh and of course i've packed my favourite waffle pj's.

My pigeonhole handbag had a clean out and now just has the essentials, pigeonhole purse, leather fox case for my iphone, Chanel perfume, Mac lipstick, carmex, pocket mirror, ipod shuffle, rayban glasses and rayban sunnies and my notebook and bamboo pen.

It's nice to be all organised and see what i have to play with.

Love locket

I bought this lovely locket a while back from Foxes, a great online store with so many beautiful things, from jewelry to home-wares. I just bought myself the perfect chain for it and was saving it as a little gift to myself for finishing Uni yesterday!

Felt flowers.

Bought this lovely new backpack a week ago and decided it needed some decorating to make it a little more girly.
Rummaged through my craft box and found some lovely coloured felt. I'd seen flowers like these one a hat once and thought they'd be the perfect thing to 'pimp' my backpack.
They're very easy to make, you just need five felt circles the same size and pinch them together one at a time and sewing a stitch in each before joining the next.
 

Loved.

Just found this beautiful ring from St. Kilda Jewelry, who create their gorgeous designs out of Brooklyn, New York. I just love the elegance of this simplistic design. Loved.

Winter snuggles.

I went a little nuts around my birthday and had a big spend up at Asos, but in my defense it was free international shipping. The above are my purchases i've never been so excited for the winter season.

Wearing my heart.

I had a quick day trip to the big smoke (Melbourne) last Wednesday, while i was there i visited one of my favourite little shops on Gertrude st, Fitzroy, Little Salon. Last year for my 21st i bought myself the first heart badge, so this year i got the earings and the other badge to match. They are by Geneine Honey under the label love.
I love wearing my hearts and always get compliments on them.
