Knitting Pattern

I absolutely love this work from Izziyana Suhaimi. Not only are her drawing skills absolutely incredible, she's managed to combine this with some intricate embroidery too! The combination of the delicate pencil work and the colourful thread makes for some very pretty art. Beautiful. 

Festival Fever

Well it looks like the UK is in full swing of Summer (well for the time being!) and it's got me wanting to grab my tent and head to summer festival.... especially after seeing Olive's latest lookbook. 

Wall to Wall

I really love the idea of having an accent wall, but aside from just painting it one block colour my ideas were very limited. That was until I saw some of the amazing wall art from ixxi - it's such a great way to display photos. You can either create a collage of your own photos or use an image from their bank - i'm intrigued by the slightly pixellated style artworks like the Van Gogh!

Style Paparazzi Thirty

I'm still lusting after pastels it seems, my inspiration folder is bursting with ice cream shades! Love how this girl has mixed a pale green, pink and lilac - almost enough to give you a sugar rush! How cute is her little collar and I'm coveting that pleated skirt too...

P.s I've popped a few items up on eBay 

Little Talks

These guys have been on my radar for a while... and i'm finding it hard to get them off repeat. Of Monsters and Men, who hail from Iceland, describe themselves as an amiable group of day dreamers who craft folkie pop songs - and I love them. It's definitely difficult not to feel cheery after listening to a few tracks.. so hit play. 

Green Green Grass

I've not got much patience, so it's safe to say i'm a bit of a failure when it comes to nail art. I'd love to be able to create some fabulous artwork on my fingertips but alas i'm not just not that handy with a pot of nail polish - pun intended!

However, after coming across these fantastic images from Alice Bartlett I have serious nail envy. Her handiwork features teeny tiny little scenes played out on her very own nails. 

Candy Pop

Karen Walker's sunglasses campaign is usually one of my favourites - and the latest one is no exception! They always have a wonderful quirky feel and I love the current retro alien theme... not to mention the cute candy colours. 

Fox and Flower

Recently discovered the amazing prints from Kari Herer over on her site, and have fallen in love with her drawings of animals - in particular the fox! I love how she's managed to capture the delicate tone and those pinks and oranges are so gorgeous. 

Style Paparazzi Twenty Nine

I've always been a fan of Kate Bosworth's style - and this outfit is no exception! The mix of neutral colours in different textures is just perfect and I love how she's added the tan tones in her sandals and bracelet. This is the perfect outfit to wear with a tan... if we ever get a summer!

Home Sweet Home

I'm back on dry land... and just about getting used to it (my body still thinks we're on a moving ship!)

I miss drawing back the curtains every morning and finding myself in a new country and yet another adventure. I've eaten so much good food (as well as copious amounts of fine wine and cocktails!) and have had the pleasure of visiting some amazing destinations - all in 7 days! 

Expect some more pics soon... but right now it's time to catch up on sleep!

P.s how amazing was the view from our fave sunbathing spot...
