Off to paradise

I’ve spent the last few months planning our trip to Thailand and I can't believe it's finally here! Been running around like a crazy person the last few days, trying to get everything in order so I really need the break. To make matters worse, yesterday I had a mild heart attack when I heard that its going to be raining for the duration of our stay! Think I’ve spent more time planning for this trip than I have any other trip in my life so I was really disappointed so say the least. But rain or shine, I am determined going to make the most of it!

I'll be without computer, emails or cell phone for 2 weeks #bliss. That also means there will be no posts for a while but I promise to fill you in on all my adventures when I'm back.

Hope everyone has an amazing Easter

KT Smail

Allow me to distract you with the gorgeous work of KT Smail.

The Irish illustrator is known for her whimsy drawings of heart broken girls, dressed in designer clothes. She has an amazing ability of balancing design and art.

If day dreaming is one of your favorite pastimes then be sure to check out her blog and website.

Life before Photoshop

A friend of mine (and a fellow Graphic Designer) just emailed me this photo by Art Snob Solutions. Brilliant, right? 

Love love love how they have rebuilt the software with natural, real materials. Everything in this shoot has been handmade. Definitely NOT a photoshop job!

Hmmm...I guess if there were no computers, Photoshop might look a little something like this. Gosh I can't imagine life without the undo button!

Check out the making of the set on Flickr.

Friday Favourites

 A few of my favourite things...

1. Embellished Sheers from Jill Stuart Fall '12 — Love the tiny studs, lace, and sparkling embellishments combined with the sheer fabric.

2. Quote from Braces and Laces

3. Such a cool idea from Dandee Designs - DIY stitched cards

4. Gorgeous interior that I found on Pinterest

A girl can dream

O.M.G. I think I just died and went to heaven! One of my favourite websites, The Coveteur recently visited Lauren Conrad's pink Chanel-filled closet. Think I would do just about anything to have a closet like this! I'm all for girly and romantic.

Geronimo Spring/Summer 2012

Spent the morning ooh-ing and ahh-ing over the Spring 2012 collection of Geronimo. Inspired by the Dust Bowl and John Steinbeck’s Grapes of Wrath. Super dreamy and I love the polaroids by Chloa Aftel.

You can view the full lookbook here and check out the Lana Del Rey inspired video here.
