Photography course

My very talented husband, who is always full of ideas and actually tackles them (...), will begin giving a photography course in October. I´m very proud of him, and even though this means giving up my saturday morning sleep ins (just for a while), I´m really excited to see this take off. He excels in anything he puts his mind to, so I´m thrilled to accompany him with this too.
It´ll be a lot of fun! Find out more about the course.
More photos by my husband here & here.

Tiny garden

I´m in love with this small garden and those beautiful trees! What a sweet little space to just sit down with some mates, and enjoy the fresh air....just a few more weeks till warmer evenings begin!

Summery

Spring is just a few weeks away, and I´m already looking forward to warmer days. Loving this summery house, the relaxed feel of it, and the blue details all over the place.

Rest

 

I´m quite tired today, and this looks very tempting at the moment: to sit and rest for a while, surrounded by a lovely view...and there´s also a bed close by in case you want a little nap!

Patterns

Beautiful hand printed textiles from Sweden. See more beautiful prints here. It reminds me a bit of William Morris´designs.

Dia del Niño

Remember this poster I designed? Well, the event finally took place this weekend and many people from the neigbourhood came, so we are very happy with how it turned out. Here are some lovely photographs by my very talented husband. See more photos on his blog.

Google logos

Fantastic illustrations for Google, commemorating different days and people in different countries. See their complete archive here.

Bottled water

Yesterday I watched this movie and it was quite alarming. On top of all the reasons enlisted in this short clip, that also informs about bottled water, the movie warns that the bottle´s plastic contaminates the water it´s carrying, mostly with cancer causing chemicals. I strongly urge you to stop buying plastic bottles for the environment and your own health.

Something green

In keeping with yesterday´s post, a lovely striped blouse. The look is kind of boyish, but the fit makes it very femenine, and I really love that it so relaxed. The pants are really lovely, and the belt and small bag compliment the blouse perfectly. And of course the stripes are green!

Stripes

Loving these striped tea towels, they´d look lovely in my kitchen! I especially like the one that says: Stripes make everything better.  
More towels...

Bedroom

I´m pretty tired today and I was reminded of this bedroom. I love the tall dark curtains, the simple decoration, the moldings on the high ceiling and I really love that bedspread.
The rest of the house, is lovely too, with tons of light, wood and high window and ceilings.

Green Film Fest

Yesterday I found out about this film festival starting the day after tommorow in Palermo, I really hope I can pop by at some point. More info here.

Fitzgerald

I´m simply mesmerized by this gorgeous, gorgeous edition of F. Scott Fitzgerald´s novels, designed by the very talented Coralie Bickford-Smith, for Penguin, (of course.) I also happen to love Fitzgerald´s writings and these editions are just so beautiful!
I´ll take them all thank you!
I think these are even more beautiful then her last work.

Something green

Loving this green phone by Anthropologie.

Jim Denevan

An Education

This weekend I watched An Education. I highly reccomend it. Wonderful cast of actors, and great photography, in a bittersweet story about learning the hard way.
