What will she wear?

I must admit I'm not that much of a monarchy-fan but I do wonder what Kate will be wearing today.

Under the weather

 Have been feeling under the weather the past few days. Several cups of tea, the cat on my lap and a few episodes of Downton Abbey: just what I need to perk me up. Oh, to have been an Edwardian! (a rich one, that is :-))

Japanese online shop Analogue Life always has the most beautiful objects for your house. I love the pared-back purity of the designs they choose: natural materials, clean lines. Exactly the way I like it. 

Just an hour's browsing through their catalogue or blog makes me a happy girl indeed. Check their website regularly for new arrivals.

One of my nicknames in secondary school was Woodstock, after Snoopy's tiny companion. My hair still looks like that when I wake up.

Exquisite handwoven bags by Rita Nazareno for her family's company S.C. Vizcarra. The collection was named after her grandfather, who was a sculptor. I'm in love with the first bag.
