SOME SERIOUS NIBBLING...

SHOES!

I did stumble over these a while back but did so again yesterday so ... for all those that didn't see them the first time round ... I bring you Hermes Vans. This is not a collaboration with Hermes but more of an exercise in Up cycling from the stylist Robert Verdi. Bored with the limitation of wearing scarves round his neck he got himself some bespoke trainers upholstered in his beautiful collection of vintage Hermes scarves. For some die hard fans this could be blasphemous ... but I must admit I'm strangely attracted...

BEST OF THE REST | BLACK INTERIORS

As you may have gathered from previous posts I am an illustrator with an obsession with interiors, my latest obssession is the use of Black within the home and not in a goth way...it started off with contemplating black kitchen units...but then I came across so much more lovely use of black on my Sunday internet travels I had to share ...

Please note. *This black is not glossy bachelor pad black..it is matte very matte and combined with plenty of natural woods, white, industrial elements and organic textures ...

SOME MILLINERY LOVE TO START 2012 ...

Sorry folks ... its taking me quite a while to get back into the world of blogging..tweeting and generally  working ... but mince pies are now a distant memory and the show must go on.... I have some plans brewing regarding the blog, so posts may be less regular as I get all this in order, i'm hoping the new look..new name and slightly new slant on my blog will be ready for your eyes to see in February so please bear with me and watch this space **** & ***** is only a few technical glitches away...

In the meantime I found these amazing hats on Raneytown.com today and had to share the millinery love... I prononunce 2012 the year I shall wear more hats ( particularly if these hats are by Frederica Moretti)... and this will also be the year I will be more action over procrastination ... I would also like it to be the year I meet Sir Paul Smith, get commissioned by Hermes to do a window display and make a rocking horse ... time will tell ; ) ... I am considering writing to Shane Richie with these aspirations, as I am also to turn 30 in 2012 (eek) so there is plenty of wishes to tick of my to do list this year!  none of which involve any form of extreme sport.

Any who ...

Happy new year everyone, may it be fruitful & filled with hats, humour and happiness.

Back soon ....
