Sharing my bed


He's a fluffy boy, but he's a good bed fellow - not too wriggly (but a little bit snorey)!

2 into 1


Jacket by Alexander Wang (Picture found via Outsapop) from Opening Ceremony

I love this jacket - brought to my attention by a post from the ever-brilliant Outi of Outsapop fame, I had never considered putting the 2 together, so this post is a perfect example of her inspiring vision and different way of seeing things.

I already have everything I would need to make this at home thanks to the genius of Uniqlo, I have a black cotton trench and a grey sweater that I have never worn and have realised that by hacking them together I could actually make 2 new garments from 1......... A trench coat with grey sweat sleeves, and a bomber / sweater jacket with black cotton sleeves, which would be very handy for spring/summer showers!

Plus - i already 'Wang'ed (studded) my own version of the bag in this picture which I have been sporting this week and am loving (post to follow).

Like. Want. Could make?!


AK Vintage - The planets are stilled earrings - $72 (found via www.francesmay.com)


Rachel Comey - Agromonist Dress - $253 (found via www.francesmay.com)


Rachel Comey - Farer's suit - $396 (found via www.francesmay.com)

I'm pretty sure I could have a bash at making all of these myself, with a bit of existing pattern butchery and some sewing know-how I don't think these would be that difficult, and definitely way cheaper than the versions above - as lovely as they are.

Knitting Green Pouffes

Knitting Daily are holding a competition in homage to the book Knitting Green by Ann Budd.

So for this challenge I thought I would make a pouffe/foot stool from old jersey t-shirts with an XL crochet hook a la Pickles!

Here is a picture of their Puff Granny's Baby Pouffe from their lovely knitting blog :

New shoes!


These were a superb vintage find amongst many others today and all for the bargain sum of £10, which means these almost new beauties cost around £1! I love them :-)
