sinking in

August 3, 2021

A bathroom with two sinks, wonderful. A bathroom with mismatched sinks, why not? In this case, one is a very organic looking and made out of limestone and the other is concrete, modern and sleek. The rough edged San Marino marble backsplash ties the two sinks together, as do the beautiful wall mounted brass taps. Don’t get me started on the PVC vinyl vanity skirt in daffodil. It’s all so utterly cool.

frock alert

Good golly, there’s nothing I don’t love about this Christopher John Rogers “Strawberry” dress. One fabulously original girl chose it as her wedding dress which only makes me love it more. The sash, the giant bow, the tulip shaped skirt, the clashing colours –– it’s all so wonderfully whimsical. The world needs dresses like this one to remind us of the fancy, the frivolity, and the sheer joy of life.

put a ring on it

August 1, 2021

Minus thumbs –– I’ve never been into thumb rings –– I love to see every finger stacked with a hodgepodge of metals and styles. It’s a look that some women pull of with aplomb. Here’s looking at you Frankie Bergstein. The jewellery of Ariana Boussard-Reifel is beautifully stackable. And mixable. I think you could weave her sculptural designs into any combination. Boussard-Reifel grew up on a Salish an Kootenai reservation in Western Montana, and is deeply inspired by tribal and Indigenous cultures. Personally, I adore the Raissa ring –– it’s simple and bold. Several stacked together look like vertebrae.
