I love . . . . TsuruBride (Etsy)

My mum sent me this link, where I found TsuruBride shop that sells these gorgeous clutches.






I read "The Little Prince" quite recently, because my boyfriend, who knew that I hadn't read it when I was a child, thought I would like it. I read it and I loved it, and that makes this one my favourite:

I love . . . . Vivienne Westwood

Of course I do! And Anglomania is really good and the shoes are as good as the clothes. You can find it all on Coggles, a great online store, and they are on sale! (it's also available on net-a-porter, but I think Coggles has made a better selection here). A look I would choose:


The navy top,

the blazer,

the shoes (I love plastic shoes, and these ones are made of bubblegum scented plastic, OMG!)

and the jacket

all Vivianne Westwood's, but the shorts are designed by Farhi:
Oh! and these shoes may not fit the look, but they're awesome (again, bubblegum scented plastic)!

Find them all on Coggles.

I love . . . . Vintage Tins

I follow Style Me Pretty, not only because I love the beautiful weddings they cover, but also because I see the tables they set, with all the special decorations, personalized for each wedding. I usually take ideas and try to remember them, so I can use them later when I want to prepare a beautiful table for some event.
This post reminded me of one I had seen some time ago that I can't find now, but what is important, is the lovely result of using vintage tins to hold the flowers.


I decided to look for some old cans on ebay and I think that these ones would look lovely with some flowers inside them:






Click on the images and you'll see the prices on ebay, but hurry up, some auctions are almost ending!

I love . . . . Chiarugi

I have to admit that I am a bit obsessed with the summer, and I keep on looking for beautiful swiming suits, and this is how I found this exclusive and awesome Chiarugi's beach wear:





You may find they are quite expensive, but cheaper ones (around 80€) can be found on Chiarugi's outlet and they are also great:

I love . . . . Lovelia (Etsy)

Lovelia is Ana Isabel's shop, a Spanish girl who designs felt items, like this beautiful mobile:


or this lovely lovely purses ($15 each):




My favourite!:

I love . . . . Mad Men

And I really can't wait for the new season. I remembered today that some time ago I had discovered on the AMC website, how to make 60s cocktails, and although I usually don't drink alcohol, I find it interesting. The one that I really want to try is the Pink Squirrel Martini, maybe because it's pink....

I love . . . . Asymmetric Beachwear

Actually I love the asymmetric clothes and as many stores are starting their sale time, I'm searching for cheap asymmetric looks. Some one shoulder swimwear (not all of them as cheap as expected):
From Net-a-Proter, this Lisa Marie Fernandez bikini:


and this Julien Macdonald monokini:


Cheaper and also great, from Victoria's Secret:


And from Asos, this Maaji One bikini:



Soon, I'll post also some asymmetric clothing.
