Pardon my French/Tokyo with Lady Dior.

One of my favourite go to fashion/art websites is by the beautiful and talented Garance Dore. I also follow her on Twitter and have been living vicariously through her as she toured around Tokyo. She was invited to Dior to travel around Tokyo with their infamous bag, the Lady Dior.

She's just released this cute little video chronicling her and Lady Dior's time around Tokyo. I love this video - it's filmed in my favourite country, it's subject is one of my favourite things (handbags, duh) and I love Garance's laid back style.

I love how she's used the bag to take us on a trip around Tokyo - perfectly capturing and showcasing the beauty and quirkiness of the city. This video has excited/inspired me to go back to Japan, particularly Tokyo - I would literally do anything to spend some time to live in Tokyo!

PS - how cute is the girl Garance photographs for the first street-style snap (in the blue Maison Michel-esque trilby), Yoon the jewellery artist and her amazing hair and the super-styling Manga artist?? Super kawaii!!

PPS - Garance profiles the people featured in the video on her website - check it out.

Mondayitis.

It's monday again and I'm in a funk... I can't really get any work done except for listening to music and sewing... At least I'll have some sweet clothes/jewellery to wear this weekend.

Anyway - I've been looking through a collection of my favourite photos which is helping me get through this drag of a day... I hope they offer some kind of inspiration/escapism to you too.

PS how cute is the gift card with the Pixies lyrics on it? I'm going to be making some of those...

The necklace collections.

Excuse my little hiatus from blogging - I've been busy preparing for the upcoming party I'm decorating. The decorations are looking pretty lush if I say so myself... I'm also preparing some posts to show you how to make your own decorations. Super easy and fun.. stay tuned!

Anyway - back on track. Anyone who knows me knows I love a good statement necklace and wear them frequently. I've stumbled across a few I would love to add to my collection:

 Dinosaur Designs

$345

 Marni

approx $235

 Dannijo

approx $252

Rossana Fani

approx $173

Admittedly they're quite expensive - so you know you can expect to see a LUXE TO LESS: necklace edition soon.
