man, i’m really loving Instagram. i was hooked since day one, but it’s great to see so many more people using it since the android integration, and so it’s popping up very regularly on my twitter and facebook feeds.
lately my photos have been all shoes shoes shoes and rugs rugs rugs… and the occasional pink drink. if you want to follow me on instagram my username is miss_moss (missmoss always seems to be taken, wherever i go)
I love instagram so so much. You know you can order little books that contain all your photos.
Still going to do that.
I am in love with those rugs! Where did you get them? Im moving into a new place this June and need a rug but I am having trouble finding ones I like and that are not outrageously expensive.
hey Sarah! both of the rugs are kilims from turkey – my parents bought them on a trip there a few years back. the one in the first picture is in their house, and the yellowish one a bit further down they gave to me.
kilims are pretty popular here and really easy to find in carpet shops in and around cape town. sometimes they’re quite reasonably priced too. but the great thing about them is that they last for a long time, and the colours don’t fade much over the years (especially if they’re not in direct sunlight).
you should try scouring etsy / ebay / craigslist for nice kilims… here are some places to start:

…and if you find one you like that’s on the pricer side, see it as an investment. you’re going to live with it for years ;)

Are those Acne pistol boots? I’ve always admired them; are they comfortable?
PS, your pink drink shot is very William Eggleston :o)
Have followed you! I’ve only been it a month but I love how I can capture snapshots of my life.
I’m totally on the instagram bandwagon too (jade_melissa)! Your stream is always so lovely.
the picture with the shadow of the shoes – I used to do that so much with all my shoes back when spice girls were in style. of course, there was no instagram then and ruining a perfectly good film was not an option :)
I enjoyed this so much Diana, thank you for the glimpse into your life.
p.s. awesome boots! Aren’t you happy it’s finally boot-season? It’s getting pretty chilly on my side of the world too, and I’m so happy I can stop complaining about the heat for a few months :)
