lune paris

for the last few days i've been flicking through the lovely "paris : made by hand" by pia jane bijkerk, this book has been all over the design blogs and it looked so good i couldn't resist buying it.
the book features all the chic and unique shops of paris where the people in the know source the goodies for their projects, one of the shops that caught my eye was lune paris they have a gorgeous range of accesories and vintage stuff a lot of their bags and belts are crafted from mens ties, very cute.........

sunny delight

i love these vibrant images from easy living magazine love the tones of grey mixed with the yellow plus fab styling detail throughout, sunny side up indeed
featured in this spread is the work of lisa stickley she designs the most beutiful prints for bags and purses and home textiles who would of thought an ironing board cover could look stylish !
take a look........

make a mixa

i was reading grazia at lunchtime and i saw the mixatape, it looks just like an old fashioned plastic tape cassette but SUPRISE it has a little pop out USB stick, you go to makeamixa pick your design fill the 1GB memory with music, it costs £19.99 but you get it delivered in a shiny box with stickers and a USB cable, this reminds me of being at school taping songs off the radio ,me and my friends making tapes for each other and decorating the boxes with stickers from smash hits.
