Something about Ireland makes me yearn

my ancestory was from such a mystical place.

Something about it makes me want to own sheep

grow cabbage and potatoes,

write by the fireplace on a gray day wrapped in wool sweater,

and drive an ity bity car to town through bright green hills of grass and stone.

Waking Ned Devine,

P.S. I Love You

&

Leap Year.

Happy Traveling!!

Lakme Fashion Week Summer Resort 2010 Preview - Atithi Gupta

This young, sprightly designer made her debut entry as the Gennext Designer at the Lakme Fashion Week F/W 09, and has gone on to make her mark across the country, thorough her label, ATITHI GUPTA. This alumni of Pearl Academy of Fashion finds her design muse in every day elements of life and finds her creativity take wings in forms and structure. For the Spring Summer Resort Wear 2010 collection, Atithi will showcase her collection, ‘In the shades of summer sky... ’. A collection replete with her signature austerity infused with new lines, enhanced by finely wrought details.
The collection celebrates lightness and newness, with subtle details that are an ode to modern feminine essence… an essence of calm sophistication and grace. The transparent; light-weight look has an understated and exquisite effect, a blend of sobriety. The summer theme is expressed in urbane, light and monochrome fabrics, colors and silhouettes, calling for a new asceticism. Collection will feature flowing dresses, tunics, rompers and layered tops are combined with embroidered short shrugs and jackets, slim skirts and pants with details around the waist.

PATTERNITY COLLAB

Getting high on flat Dr. Pepper- yum ans crazed and in need of intern helpage!
Have been lame on the blogging due to the tying up of AW10... but SO excited to see Patternity (online print loving website/ resource) has now launched!
Check out how cool the Wahhhh nails collab with them is! I want but I cant, due to my labourer-man hands.

Temporal sad face

So the team and I whipped up this Human Totem Pole piece for Patternity & Supermarket Sarah

(can also be used a 'mantlepiece cushion' in my opinion)

FOR WORSHIP AND REST

Good Eats Wednesday

The Great Cadbury Egg Hunt

Image found HERE.

I've been told "you either love 'em or hate 'em."

I happen to love 'em.

No, not just love 'em.

They are my favorite candy. 

I anticipate their arrival each year.

So when the Easter candy was placed on the shelves at retailers a few weeks ago, I was so excited.

I searched high and low on the shelves, but no cream eggs.

Only carmel.

Yes, I know carmel is tasty... but I want my cream!!!

Has anyone seen them yet this year?!

Image found HERE.

So if you see this van, please ask the driver "where are they?"

However,

if you see me behind the wheel...

 look the other way... I found him first!

Happy Egg Hunting!!

YSL LA LAQUE LONG LASTING ......XOXO MUST HAVE NOW.

Ok, fashionistas' please listen carefully and seriously. The must have touch up for this Autumn /Winter period would have to be YSL La Laque Long Lasting stormy grey nail lacquer!!!, has everyone put that down in their 'must get, fashion list?'xo.

I recently invested in one and let me declare.. this oh so smokey colour palette is the perfect side serving addition to any fashion combination!.

If YSL is not suitable for your purse strings then.. if you must, settle for something very similar!!, but I'm warning you, the durability may not have longevity!!

Think, tights, blazer, statement neck piece, ankle booties, vintage lace neck scarf, seriously long mane.. topped off with GREY LACQUER!!!!.... Autumn/ Winter here you come.

Does everybody remember this?: YSL La Laque Long Lasting nail Lacquer, GREY!!! xoxo.
