4 Replies

here’s a peek at ulyana sergeenko‘s  spring 2012 collection…

 

i don’t usually post about fashion, but i was so excited to discover ulyana sergeenko‘s spring 2012 lookbook is out. i absolutely loved her fall debut. and her spring/summer is just as stunning..

 

 

i absolutely adore the styling in these photos. ulyana’s style is amazing. romantic, lush, graceful, with a sense of abundance; and a dash of quirk.

{you can see the whole ulyana sergeenko s/s 2012 collection here.}

 

 

i think my favourite shots are these back stage photos. they exude such a softness. i’m in love…

i love the details in this bedroom. the wooden wings add such character and warmth to the room. personal photos, religious icons, lots of natural light, such a divine personal space.

this is the beautiful bedroom of designer lucy young and her hubbie marcus miller. definitely feeling inspired…

 

happy monday

two…

i love the idea of these gorgeous dresses for summer.  they are designed by monica patel-cohn the woman behind the label two. “two is a small collection of chic tunics, caftans and dresses made from indian cotton sarees.”

the weather here in northern nsw, australia, has been hot and humid. summer has shoved spring out of the way and i have realised that my wardrobe is lacking. i need some clothing that i can throw on and feel cool, comfortable and pulled together.

the pieces from  two are soft and flowing, monica has created stylish, easy lifestyle pieces. i think the two pictured above are perfect…

i am not a lover of summer but beautiful cool dresses {and lots of swimming} may make this season more enjoyable.

p.s it is so dry here that our {water} spring has dried up… so for now we take our washing into town and wash at the laundromat…. not that big a deal. all we need now is a big down pour of rain and our garden will be so happy.
