Golden Gate Bridge

Came across Johanna Wallin's pic of the Golden Gate Bridge (top) on ...etc blog and just had to compare it with my own Golden Gate pic (bottom). I think it obvious that Johanna wins hands down. Her blog is lovely too.

Friday Etsy finds : Soft Creatures

These gorgeous little creatures by Viola Studio are a great gift for young and old. I really like the pudgy goat (2nd from top).

Golden bracelets

Lately I have developed a thing for golden jewellery and these bracelets by Lisa Marinnuci rock my world. Available at Ciao Meow.

Colourful Tuesday: Ruffle Aprons

Last night I realised that I haven't posted any of my own work yet. Well, there you are. These vintage-inspired aprons were a lot of fun to design and still put a smile on my face. I think they are currently only available in Australia.

Label focus: Wunderkind

German label Wunderkind have recently caught my eye with a beautiful pair of Oxford shoes (yep, still obsessed) which I am not able to find anywhere. I saw them on a street shot on WGSN and they are very elusive. These shoes & accessories are pretty yummy too...

Friday Etsy finds : Shiny!

Tribeca Vintage

Persephone Vintage

Pure Vintage Clothing

My friend Helena likes shiny things and found a gorgeous pair of voluminous sequined shorts on ebay which have inspired today's post. Check out Helena's blog 'So not a princess'.

Fragola leather bags

Lately I've decided I'm in need of a new going-out-bag. Since I spent lots of money on my holiday my budget is rather minimal. These delectable tear-shape Goccia bags by Fragola are made from soft Italian Suede and are only $59. Now I just have to pick a colour...

Get yours on Etsy here.

Colourful Tuesday: Bonbon Kakku

Kipikipi by Saara

Meli Melo by E.M.

Nuage de beau temps by EnPetitComite

Bonbon Kakku is concept similar to Threadless but in fabric form. You can buy fabrics by the meter or submit a design and if it is popular it will be sold on the site. There's a Christmas Competition running until the end of Nov and I think I might just have to submit some designs.

Australian Label Focus : Emobi

Summer has arrived in Melbourne a bit early this year and I'm in need of a new pair of bathers. I usually go for basic black but this time I'm looking for something a bit more colourful. Sydney-based swimwear Label Emobi have captured my attention with these cute prints. Get it here.

The Selby features Alexander Wang

I'm a fan of Alexander Wang and after seeing these pics at The Selby I love him even more. Not only are these shoes TDF but he's wearing a pair of Nike BW. Check out the rest of the shoot here.

Colourful Tuesday: Tulu Textiles

Yep, I'm officially back from my holiday to Canada and the USA. I had a great time and wish I could have stayed longer. Much much longer.

Highlights: Portland was the loveliest place with the nicest people on earth. The Canadian Rockies were too beautiful to describe in words (pics coming). Montreal has a great vibe and really reminded me of Melbourne.

I'm still going through my 1,398 pics and will post some shortly.

These pics are from the colourful and vintage inspired bed linen range by designer Elizabeth Hewitt of Istanbul-based label Tulu.
