From Scratch

i’v decided to dub Etsy the never-ending rabbit hole of desire & lust. not in a porny way, guys. there’s SO much stuff on there that i want to buy! i’m going to be moving at the end of the year & i’m quite excited by the prospect of decorating a new place from scratch. toying with the idea of selling all my possessions and just starting over – wouldn’t that be nice?

first row: origami lampshade / side table / hanging air plant

second row: wall clock / porcelain hanging containers / cork jars

third row: floating shelves / vintage dining room table / spinners

fourth row: side chair / bubble chandelier / leather storage tote

To Be Adored

BinBin McNiven delivers Edwardian inspired sophistication combined with a fun Sixties aesthetic, throughout her label To Be Adored. Stand-out dresses, tailored trousers and unique separates are brought to life with feminine detailing, in opulent silk and velvet finishes.

so many beautiful pieces by To Be Adored available at ASOS … though the model seems to be suffering from a curious case of  leaning ever so slightly to the right syndrome. hey?

hint hint

uh oh, you’re about to be bombarded with more stuff i want. such a greedy person.

i don’t even drink whisky, i just want these because they look amazing.

the same sort of applies to this eau de toilette. it can smell like eau de toilet for all i care (har har har)

really like these engraved goods from in god we trust

these beyond radical sleeping bags!

who doesn’t need a pair of needlepoint fox shoes

banker’s envelope from jack spade

these cushions

these prints (the moon one in particular makes me sigh)

animals boxes – if only i had a mantelpiece to put them on

and anything by eskell

mostly everything discovered thanks to my new best friend, svpply.

svpply

i am officially addicted to svpply. it’s like pinterest + ffffound + polyvore all rolled into one. i know boutiques.com just opened with huge fanfare, and i played around with it a little, but it’s not nearly as rad. in fact, i hated all the suggestions that google (sorry, boutiques.com) gave me, and how they categorised my style as casual chic. come on! talk about a cliché guys. svpply on the other hand has me excited about basically every single product that i see on the home page, it’s not just fashion AND they have a super helpful gift guide section.

if you want to see my growing collection just go here, and be sure to sign up + share your link so i can follow you.

spence

YAY! an online shopping option for south africans that is actually RAD. i’m talking about spence guys. they had the launch at field office last night. spence boasts threads from sa designers like margot molyneux, missibaba, take care, christopher strong, steffany roup and many more. my credit card is going to take a beating soon.
