Prunella Soap

By Miss Moss on Wednesday 11 January, 2012 in Design

Prunella is an organic (and vegan) soap line by Janell Anderson out of Portland, Oregan. the packaging and photography is so darn cute i almost can’t stand it.

Prunella is vegan, organic cold process soap made in small batches with simple, all natural ingredients in downtown Portland, Oregon. It is made utilizing the old-fashioned method of soap making and cures for a minimum of four weeks from the time it is made until it’s available for sale. Eco-friendly, super sudsy and wonderful for your skin! Prunella (Princess Prunella…to be exact) was a nickname given to me by my mom when I was a little girl because I would stay in the bath too long…my fingertips would turn to “prunes!”

Pop-Lin

By Miss Moss on Tuesday 18 October, 2011 in Fashion

i don’t have designated sleepwear, but rather rely on the trusted leggings / undies + t-shirt / vest combo. it might be time to invest in some quality pj’s, though… these beauties are from Pop-Lin.

Good Night, Day

By Miss Moss on Wednesday 21 September, 2011 in Fashion

Tara-Lynn has been sharing some sneak peaks from the upcoming lookbook for her handmade knitwear label Good Night, Day (formerly Yarn Over Movement). they are AMAZING. i can’t stop staring at those chunky knits and sadly sighing about the impending doom of summer.

thaya: things i like right now

things i like right now by thaya of beatnik bazaar

Things I’m loving = Local

Here are some goodies I’m loving by local designers, who never cease to amaze me with their beautiful creations. Buying local fills me with such a sense of pride, that not only am I supporting South African designers, but I’m helping to invest in the local economy. All the local designers I love and stock in my store, use great quality fabrics, leathers, cottons and finishes to create their ranges and I am loving green, grey and blue accent tones this Spring. I’m also mad about vintage and collect deer, swans and anything with hearts on them, so I’ve pandered to my whims and included some beautiful things from local designers with my collections in mind.

Trip Bags – Handmade in False Bay.
Liesel Trautman Porcelain Cups – By Liesel Trautman in Observatory.

thief & bandit

By Miss Moss on Friday 2 July, 2010 in Fashion

i’ve become a one-item-of-jewellery-at-a-time kind of gal, so i absolutely love the handmade pieces from thief & bandit because they are simultaneously striking & beautifully simple. their t-shirts are great, too.
