craving hot, dry days & splashing in the ocean.

summer, please don’t leave until I have

had the chance to do some more splashing in the ocean!

It’s really hard to do that living in Brunswick, I promise

I’ll be more proactive in heading beachside more often…

I have no words. I am loving the AW13 collections…

Loving the tones, textures, tartans & smatterings of metallic!

(Finally! Metallics done in a non techy-futuristic way!)

from the work bench

Thinking about a new Spring/Summer collection, I can’t help but be inspired by the prettiness of vintage Asia.
A recent trip to Raffles Hotel in Singapore, where I sat & sipped a fluffy pink cocktail amongst palm trees & chandeliers, then back home to the cherry blossom trees lining my street, I am looking to Shanghai circa 1930 to inspire the next lot of sketchpad shananigans.

For the past 6 days, Violet & I has been lucky enough to be set up in Melbourne Central, under the big clock (that sings to me at 3 minutes past the hour, every hour) as part of the State of Design festival, thanks fo Fjorde Magazine.
I have been happily playing shops all week alongside a great bunch of other Melbourne labels such as Prussia, Lisa Taranto, Mina & Katusha, Coehlo, El Amuleto & Attraction by Imagery. Our last day is tomorrow Sunday 31st, we will be here from 10am – 6pm, come & play!! xx




pretty winter melbourne

I don’t think I’m alone when I say I can’t wait for spring to arrive, and we’re nearly there! However nothing brightens up a cloudy winter’s day more than fresh flowers & cosy cafes, thankyou Melbourne xx
Pay a visit this weekend to Art Stems on Lygon St and Chez Dre on Coventry st.
