want, love, desire... Christmas edition.
A couple of things we might like for christmas.....
1. This beautiful vintage engagement ring is amazing. But we would rather wear it on our right hand.
2. Love this chic Zara shirt. So versatile and easy to dress up with a little vintage scarf or a cocktail ring.
3. These See by Chloe boots are last season but we are still in L.O.V.E
4. What screams more Christmas than socks? These cute little mohair ankle versions are from Lowie and are perfect for Christmas Morning.
5. Morse Code Blankets by Holly Berry are to die for. They actually spell love in their woven morse code design. A little pricey but 100% worth it.
6. Cute little travel coffee mug from Sagaform practical doesn't have to be boring.

Claire Morgan.
Our current obsession is Claire Morgan's insanely beautiful taxidermy installations. They are quite breathtaking and have a real air of magic.

Ear Worm... Sly and the Family Stone
Everyday people has been on heavy rotation this week, so naturally it is a perfect choice for our 'ear worm'. On Youtube I found this version with my favourite Prince so it was an obvious choice. But here are both versions. Enjoy.

Today I'm Wearing.... Black/Texture
1. Vintage Prince tour Tee.
2. 70's vintage Biker Jacket.
3. 80's Mohair Cardigan.
4. 30's Finged Silk Scarf
When I wear head to toe black I like to mix my textures to break up the outfit and avoid it looking dull. Mixing fringes, furs, leather's and knits makes the overall look more interesting.

Joji Kojima.
We have loved Joji Kojima's jewellery for ages. Her designs are almost fetish, yet unbelievably beautiful. Her bold and ornate approach to design really excites us. Some might say they that they are impractical but we love love love them here. Go look at her website AMAZING!

Prince at Hop Farm.
Went to see Prince at Hop Farm at the weekend. It was the best show I have ever seen. Admittedly I am a die hard obsessive but he was UNREAL. He and his band, which was made up of extremely beautiful and insanely talented ladies, played for over two hours. The whole experience was quite magical and somewhat moving being in the presence of a living legend. Prince was funny, personable and pitch perfect. He played all of his hits from 1999 to Raspberry Beret. The opening instrumental to Take me with U, a personal favourite, sent huge cheers around the 30,000 strong crowd. Wish we could go everyday. His gig in Ireland anyone?
