Just brought this picture from Gemma Correll. It really made me laugh so I just had to buy it.

This week has been a bit sparse on the old blog. Truth be told I am feeling a little flat and low at the moment. I am however going to London for a few days for an inspiration/ shopping trip. I’m really looking forward to it, I need lots of new fresh ideas for a big push with the freelance work. I gave myself till August to make this work,  and thats only 5 months away! gulp!

Have a good week!

Sneaky peek at the new collection. Gorgeous as always.

Following the path of offensive posts which have swearing in (sorry mum), I couldn’t resist posting about this from Alison Carmichael.

Its true, words do look much nicer when they are hand lettered. She has more gorgeous hand lettered typography on her website, well worth checking out. I promise tomorrow, no more swearing.

I have been an avid reader of Charlotte Taylor’s blog for some time, following her as she has prepares to launch her first collection at London’s Fashion Week.

Inspired by penguins, grannies and old soap operas this always promised to be an exciting collection. I have just looked through the  images of Charlottes collection online and IT IS GORGEOUS. The penguin print adds a flash of colour  to the navy, cream and tweed base and the cut of the clothes evokes elegance and femininity. I want it all! I am praying to the buying gods that be to please buy this collection, because I want to own it all.

I love these illustrations by Al Murphy.
