Japan Makes Me Happy

I am currently immersed in a raging case of Japanese FEVER! I am absolutely, unequivocally, totally obsessed with Japan & everything about it. I have never been there & I am DYING to visit (does anyone want to sponsor me?!). Delicious, fresh sushi, noisy purikura (プリクラ), love hotels (ラブホテル), Harajuku kids, beautiful temples, the delicate, […]

Men’s Summer Style ’07

I recently received an email from Ben in the U.K. asking what I thought men should be wearing this summer, so here are my thoughts on the subject! At the moment, I really like it when men dress in a casual, not-trying-too-hard style. The only man whose rather formal style I endorse is that of […]

Carpe Diem!

“I’ve been dating a great guy for almost a year now. I adore him and we get along famously. I find that I’m getting too attached to my beau: relying on him to do things on the weekend, during my times off, pretty much relying on him whenever I’m out of the office. You see, […]

Style Icons: Marchesa Luisa Casati

“Her carrot-coloured hair hung in long curls. The enormous agate-black eyes seemed to be eating her thin face. Again she was a vision, a mad vision, surrounded as usual by her black and white greyhounds and a host of charming and utterly useless ornaments. But curiously enough she did not look unnatural. The fantastic garb […]

Summer Fun In Your Backyard

“Hello, I have a little backyard that I’m just dying to make into the perfect place for picnics and parties during the summer, but I’m not quite sure what I want it to look like! I’m looking for small backyard inspiration, any suggestions would be wonderful! Furniture, lights, decor, etc etc.” I really think the […]

The Interchange Desk, a blog for people wanting to get out of their office jobs, or for people who are transitioning into other work. I think some of you might enjoy this!

Last Bunch Of International Dress Up Day #006 Photos

I love you guys! You’re all so incredibly awesome! Dayna: “When I was little I always wanted to be either a rock star or a veterinarian. Since dressing up as a vet isn’t too fun, I decided to stick with the rock star theme. I remember how my friend, Aileen, and I thought we were […]

What Do You Wish You Still Owned?

Trends change, bodies grow, people move on — & clothing gets left behind. What items of clothing do you wish you still had? I can think of a whole lot of things. I used to have Doc Marten boots printed with union jacks, & blue platform Skechers! (It was the Spice Girls era, you know.) […]

Carousel — Week Ending 20th July 2007

Happy Friday! Wheeeee! Super Mods Enter Rehab, a photoshoot for Vogue Italia by Steven Meisel. After seeing this I have decided I must buy a copy (it’s from July ’07!) so I can stick the pictures all over my house. I LOVE this shoot, I think it is genius. (Not safe for work, though!) 3 […]

The Rules

I recently stumbled across a girl’s journal entry where she had written 9 rules for herself. Things like, “learn to be charming” & “always make time for solitude”. It got me thinking (how Carrie!) about other people’s rules for life. Do you have any? Are they concrete & solid, or flexible & subject to change? […]
