‘Tis the season to…
Puddle stompin’
Well… I must have jinxed us all in my last post because the weather is AWFUL today… so grey and dreary. Time to bust out the wellies and slickers!
Umbrella by Jean Paul Gaultier & Guy de Jean, water-resistant Postal Co notebooks, sparkly Zowie scarf, Burberry sateen trench, yellow wellies and tweed socks… mmm… cuddly…

Garance
I may have already blogged about Garance Dore, if so, sorry for the repetition, but she’s just so stinkin’ talented. Her sketches get me every time. Not to mention, all of her posts make me laugh. I love how she makes fun of herself and doesn’t try to be perfect. So happy she moved to NYC!
the mashburns
I was in Atlanta and stopped by one of my favorite stores, Sid Mashburn. It is the most handsome and put together men’s store I know of. I love the way it feels- tailors out on the floor perfecting custom suits, vintage records, ping pong table- it just makes you want to live there. I also love his wife’s shop around the corner, Ann Mashburn. What a talented duo!

Matta pom pom scarves
I love the lightweight cotton/silk blend scarves from Matta. Great neutrals and fantastic brights. Can’t decide between the coral and the charcoal…
jazz lawn party
On Saturday it was the first of this year’s Dreamland Orchestra’s Jazz age lawn Party. It was so fun to see everyone dressed up and dancing and the Saint Germain cocktails were the bees’ knees! These superb photos were taken from last years party from jwoodford35 flickr stream. If you missed the party, they have another set for August 20th & 21st – my one piece of advice would be to take your own picnic!
A royal affair


Perfection. Weddings are the best… happy Friday everybody! Images via NYmag.
Parisian Chic
Continuing with our theme… we’re loving this new book by Parisian supermodel Inès de la Fressange. It’s full of lovely little pieces of life/wardrobe/style advice. I especially love the photographs of herself and her effortlessly beautiful daughter, Nine (above, modelling must-have pieces.) ‘Cool’ just runs in the family, apparently…

A world of white
Today we’re day dreaming of sun on our faces and sand between our toes… and although Summer still seems a very long way off, our March feature of the month, dreamy fashion label Loup Charmant, is helping keep reality at bay. Happy Friday everybody!
Gowns galore


Some gorgeous glittery moments from last night’s Academy Awards…

Fabulousness at Fashion week
We’re loving these modern, bold reinterpretations of classic silhouettes. The tones and textures are just to die for… (images via NYmag)
Fifi fashion
As per usual, Fifi has taken the season in stride and is staying warm, cosy and fabulous… dressed above in Marc Jacobs, Lacoste, Aquascutum, Sonia Rykiel, Chloe and Burberry… sigh…
Jodi Arnold
I don’t like big department stores. I prefer to stroll down the street and pop into wonderful little boutiques with fantastic vitrines that lure me in. I stumbled upon Jodi Arnold a couple of weeks ago and it is now on my list of places to visit every season to spruce up my wardrobe. You can see everything on her website, but it’s much more fun to actually go and try everything on!
Pigs, poodles & glitter

Fashionable animals from the new Anthropologie catalog. This must have been the most hilarious and chaotic shoot, but the final result is pretty cool… great use of props and colour!
ulla johnson
I love Ulla Johnson’s clothing line. She used to work with us years ago over at the Gap when she was getting her company off the ground and look at her now! Way to go Ulla.
