Colour palette: Blue & Beige

Check out Mango's newest Fall 2010 collections. I am in love, I can say that about clothes right? well I am in love with the styling of these photos, and I can't wait to get my hands on some of these looks for Fall.

New for fall: Zara

I have to say that summer and fall are my favourite seasons. I love all the warm crisp tones of fall and of course the fall season for clothing is the best! Who doesn't love to wrap themselves in a beautiful cashmere pashmina or wear a camel coloured trench or jacket or what about cableknits and tweed!! here are a few of my favourite looks from Zara for Fall 2010.

what an awesome leopard print clutch

I am of the belief that leopard print is a neutral? What do you think?

Stationary and Stamps

I have a small obsession with stamps and stationary, I think we all do, right? The feel of the paper, the embellishments, the ribbons, the ink, the thought of receiving a beautiful love letter in the mail!! Okay as I make myself feel better... I wanted to share some of my favourite things from the world of paper.
