Giving self / mirror portraits some love.
CA4LA hat, All Saints leather jacket, Alexander Wang vest / boots, harem pants from Rome, Johnstons scarf, cashmere gloves from one of my loves! (oOowee I rhymed), awesome iPhone case from my bf

Presents from Vienna. Eating these chocolates in my Wolford tights...yum yum!

Details details.

Got these trousers tailored by my very trusty tailor in London, Orhan. Genius with all my clothes.
Filippo Catarzi hat, See by Chloe jumper, Wilfred coat, Brooks Brothers trousers, Cesare Paciotti brogues, gloves from Intermix, and awesome socks

I went back home for the hols with 3 pairs of gloves (I love winter accessories) and came back with 6. WOOHOO!

Stay tuned for next week's installation of Instaaagraaam!

random weekends

my uniform this summer

all about the simple pinky rings. Customised a Laura Lee pinky ring after seeing Elin Kling's beautiful spread in Style By. Love her.

Healthy alternative to the above...

my only purchase in Paris a couple weekends ago

Our newest addition to the family aka Stitch's younger brother, Tartufo. I love naming pets after food.


Hope you're having a great weekend!

favorite things

Wearing your bf's hat and documenting it

Watching your home team (Raptors) play the first NBA game in Europe during season and it ending with triple OT

Friend's babies...(and being able to give them back ;))

New purchases: LV Epi Saint Cloud (no longer in production but a fantastic substitute to the Celine box bag) and Prada wallet (just compact enough to even fit into your small evening purses)

Shameless self promotion.

Happy Sunday everyone!

If you follow me on twitter then you would've known that this was my most recent addition to my redecoration project. A 1940's professional dress form from Italy. I have been looking for one for the LONGEST time and then we revisited an antique store owned by Les Trois Garcons (resto and Lounge Lover bar) - the most well decorated restaurant and lounge in London (in my opinion anyway...) The guys told us that it is pretty difficult to come across antique mannequins and this one even has a steel stand. Love it.

Persol Orange glasses - welcome change to the blue?

Some of my favorite pieces.

RINGS:
GOLD TULIP (vintage, gifted from my sis)
PURPLE (Banana Republic)
GREEN JADE (vintage, gifted from my mom)
SNAKE (kenneth jay lane, gifted from mass)
GOLD AND PINK GLASS (BCBG, gifted from bonnie)

BRACELETS:
SILVER CUFF (sardinia)
SNAKE (shanghai)
BANGLE (portobello market, london)

Hope you're having a good hump day!

Random weekenders...

We're in the process of renovating our place (will post when major changes occur) and the weekends have been spent deciding, drawing, drafting up new ways of living.

Here are some pics from the weekend.




Armani (both EA and GA) create the most well-fitted jackets for men. The detailing of this jacket is an incredible combination of leather and zipper.

My sister and I share the same pearl bracelet (given to us by our cousin) with the same ballet slippers charm (we were dancers as kids)


One of my current fav pairs: Elizabeth and James booties. They're not too tall and just edgy enough to wear daily.

Found in the Art Market in Shanghai...

I just came across this article in the NY Times last year about the Japanese Body Pillow.

I'm struggling to not judge the culture. What are your thoughts?
