Art on Etsy

I have been looking for inspiration lately of pieces of art that catch my eye. I may end up purchasing because sometimes they never quite work out...What I love about Brook Greens work is that it is recycled and simple and has such an effect. I think all the prints look amazing, but these three are my top.

I have so many beautiful old books that are just sitting in my room at the moment, and I would love to have some of it displayed. I am just loving this idea! Check out her shop linked above.

Who knew double denim could work?

Sorry about my lack of uncreative posts, I have had a really hectic past couple of weeks, and this week coming I have exams and assignments due! Bit of a Hell week...wish me luck haha

Hunting

Just found this old photo from The Sartorialist and wanted to share! I cannot remember what month it was from, but if I could be bothered could look it up in the archives. Anyway I am just in love with all the colours in the jewels and the way she has so many but they all work together. Something I wish I could pull off. 

P.S It is two weeks till I leave for the UK! I am so excited! I have been holding up the spending hard core, and really haven't had anything new in months. So excited for the shopping! I really hope I find some treasures haha.

Ayyy Noo Moosique

I have "cleverly" added a new gadget which I can update whenever I want with all the beautiful and fun music I hear daily. I get majority of my inspiration from Triple J(as do most young people) but I also love Lastfm.com and just hearing about new bands from all over the worlds. Please let me know if you like what you hear!!

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend

Ring Me

A regular night for me, cruising around on Etsy and I come across these incredibly quirky and adorable hand carved rings! Marc Barer's to be exact..

I like that each have a little imperfection and sort of tell a story. If you are interested check them out at this shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/donmoti


The next range I came across was a shop called "Toosis" and these rings remind me of those YSL ones I have seen around...I think....



The price range isn't ridiculous, ranging from 60 to 100 ish dollars. Check the rest of the jewelry out. The rings by far are my favourite.

ANNND last week I found this desirable slash slightly out of my price range:

Isn't it the coolest thing ever? Samantha from SATC esq.. It's a Wendy Brandes design!

The likely lads + Robbie Madge

Found some beautiful photography via Is This Real Life? @ Jolijn Snijders. There are tons of fashion with boy and girls models, all of which are stunning. 

I love this boy! Teeny bit of a crush-but can you blame me? check his expression

And I love this floral vest, I really wanted to make something like this ages ago but it was never successful...there it is again, I always start but never finish!

I love the velvet purple top here is stunning, as well as the biker gloves. This is Robbie Madge

I'll begin to post more and more but incredibly busy time of year, I am actually out on my teaching rounds (where I go into the school and practice before I am qualified haha)

And thank you for all the lovely comments I have been getting.

Post Secret

I've been following Frank for years now, and until recently the secrets haven't made such an impact on me. I do love the idea that creating a creative visual to express something you can't quite say aloud. Then hope that someone along the way reads it. Well this week I have checked it out, and this secret I think is incredibly simple, and just sort makes me think about it a little. 

There is something about this. It's just like hey...ah what are we competing for? Why are we all striving to be the next best thing? Be cool? I personally am not competitive at all...but saying that I do always like to think I need to be the best at what I want to do. Does that make any sense?

Bit of a bizarre post haha.

P.s I am really cut, I just got locked out of my photobucket account which I have had for about 5 years and totally can't remember my password or the email I used for it. So now I can't get any of the photos that were on there! Some of which I don't have saved on here any more :( tear.
