christmas part two

Hooray its Christmas. Decorations from Sibella Courts shop and lots of presents to be opened.

chilled

In Bali, feeling very chilled, this is an island to be frequented. I love this photo found on style files. I can't remember where it is from but I thought it was someones house in Bali. 

blue love

Ok I have to officially stop stalking Style Files, I can't help myself every time I pop on her blog I'm transfixed. I was having an indigo blue moment and found this post. Photo 1 featured in Martha Stewart Living, Photo 2 from Coterie and Photo 3 by Covet Garden Design Magazine, image by Tracy Shumate.

lila and tom

I first read about Lila and Tom, a fashion story agency via Rose and Crown. What a beautiful collaboration, a half belgian/dutch and german, who have settled in Barcelona producing exclusive images and fashion stories. They dedicate themselves to art direction and stylism (hmmm is that a word) for editorials, catalogues, fashion shows and advertising. A lovely way to spend your days.

sweet sugar dough

There were too many, I couldn't leave any out. What a way to sell doughnuts. YUM. Via Photographer Chris Court 

ms g's

Ms G's in Potts Point, Sydney is a fabulous new restaurant/bar designed by Sibella Court. They offer asian fusion delicious eats and kooky cocktails, with - for a nice change - the most agreeable and pleasant bar staff.

jules' bistro

Jules Bistro  located in the east village, NYC is super fun. The food is french, tick, music jazz, tick. Styled like a French Bistro similar to that you may find in Marais or La Bastille Arrondissements in Paris. Little bit more heaven and fun in a city where this is well in abundance. Mia and I went for dinner and jazz, staff are fantastic too.

summer house

Another post from Style Files I couldn't help sharing with you. How heavenly is this house, a Scandinavian dream.  images via johanna ekmark.

family talent

         

                

     

Photographer Chris Court (Sibellas' brother) is one talented man, making that one talented family. I adore the way he captures the subjects. I especially LOVE the top bathroom, have added it to the wish list for our second bathroom. I'm pretty sure most of these photos are for Sibella's Nomad book.

geometry active wear

A darling friend has plunged into the world with a brand new business - Geometry Active Wear - we are in love with the fit of her new workout gear.  Perfectly designed for the natural women in mind, especially for those of us over 30, wow what a breakthrough someone finally designing clothes for our darling age group. Anything that eliminates muffin tops is high on my priority list. And even better, it's 100% Australian designed and made. Brilliant Kate, you're a superwoman, little children and a new business, inspiring for us all. 

nomad

Sibella Courts gorgeous book Nomad, a memoir to inspire you on how to transfer your treasures found when travelling into your home.

dutch label

I'm being completely mesmerised by Style Files again, love these images from Dutch label engelpunt. Images via StyleCookie.

dreamy office space

How inviting is this office space, it's begging for you to be inspired to work, work, work. Via Style Files.

christmas part one

Thanks to Follow Studio I bought the sweetest garland and bunting yesterday, photos above, from Toast, I can't wait until they arrive.

yummy apartment

Dreaming. I could see myself living in an apartment like this. via Fantastic Frank

perfect sunday sleep in

I couldn't resist posting this photo again. image

reindeer hugs

I always drop by eatdrinkchic for creative inspiration. Today I'm wrapping Christmas presents. I absolutely love wrapping Christmas presents, mainly because I know the excitement I get when I see loved ones opening them, hmmm and of course when I'm opening them myself. I'm currently cutting out these gift tags, cute as buttons, tartain and reindeer's, love them. Super easy to create. thanks Amy.

mulberry bush

Yum, the Mulberry Bush at home was in full fruit. There's nothing like picking Mulberry's straight from the tree, black sweet juice all over your fingers. Wish I had grabbed a bucket load to bring home to bake a Mulberry Pie.

turn the world inside out

A friend sent me this link from Ted talks about this incredible french artist JR and his inside out project. Amazing and inspiring. I wanted to share. 

my mums garden

My mums garden is always a pleasure. A lot of labour and love goes into this garden.
