Rachel Ellis

Although already featured on our blog list, I'd just like to re-post one of my greatest and most talented friend's recent illustrations as I think she is simply fantastic and can't get enough of her beautiful, big-eyed drawings. Rachel Ellis. What a woman.

Ibride - quite simply the best furniture ever...

Summer lovin'

This is my current "can't wait for Summer' song too... 

Open Your Eyes...

Huang Beauty...

Andrew Huang, comercial and music video director in L.A, has a sensational video on his website which you MUST watch. It's inspirational.

Last weekend, instead of wallowing in our hangovers, we decided to drag ourselves out of bed and head into a rather drizzly London. After a fantastic lunch at the Royal China (quite simply the best Chinese food I have ever eaten and well worth the 20 minute wait) we mooched on down to South Bank to check out David Shirgley's exhibition, Brain Activity. 

Shrigley aims to draw ''laughter, intrigued confusion and disquite'' from his viewer and I think it's safe to say that is what he achieved. Wondering around the gallery I smiled, laughed and scratched my head. As I overheard people complain 'I could do that' I found it best to embrace Shrigley's playful, obvious images and enjoy my Saturday afternoon - the glass is half full innit. 

Eye See You..

                               

                             

J'adore Parisian artist, Cedric Rivrain's soft fashion illustrations. The contrast of bright colours against subtle, grainy paper is effortless but eye-catching.

Hattie Stewart

                 

London based illustrator, Hattie Stewart, has made her own sketchy versions of some iconic magazine covers including Dazed & Confused and ID. Love her style, very unique. 

Cat sensation...

Absolutely love cats. Absolutely LOVE Paul & Joe's cat inspired make-up collection for their 10th anniversary. One of each please. 

Print obsessions

My absolute favourites....design duo Peter Pilotto and Christopher de Vos created this amazing Indonesian trek inspired collection for Spring/Summer 2012. Amazing colour combined with flattering shapes.....love this x

Three Floor Fashion

I'm enjoying this recently launched line a lot. It has some really nice wearable pieces with a twist and uses some very interesting fabrics. ThreeFloorFashion 

Take me to the Ice Hotel...

Dennis Basso, what a man.
 I want to go to sleep in these amazing fur pieces from his Fall 2012 collection.  Great luggage too.  

Recently I've had a strong desire to go to the Ice Hotel in Romania, now I've found the perfect wardrobe. Thanks Den.
