personalised pencils

What is it that attracts us to having our names printed on things long after we've left primary school? I bought these pencils for my boyfriend as a valentines present and he was over the moon! So cute.

Brown Leather Rucksack

Anyone else noticing a return to classics? No more "it-bags" for the teenies I believe. A white silk shirt, turned-up jeans and this bag are all you need.

One sketch a day

Finally ordered my copy of 'One Line a Day', the five year diary from Chronicle books. I love the idea of being able to keep a daily record of 5 years in one book - and one sentence a day is so easy! Now Chronicle are about to release 'One Sketch a Day', with spaces to draw each day for one year -fantastic!

Liberty of London

I love Liberty. I remember my first visit there and I still try and pop in any time I'm in central London.
Last summer, I made this dress for my mum with some Liberty print silk.





Doesn't this new bike by Liberty for Target in the US look like a very near match!

PilloWig

from jooyounpaek.

I need one of these for my early morning train. Although I did genuinely fall asleep on the train yesterday and missed my stop :( so maybe it should come with an in-built alarm.

Whisper Rings

Oh. my. goodness.
I have been looking for a little dotted gold ring for so long. (Ever since I saw this perfect photo below)

I am little bit of a jewellery obsessive, but who can't help but fall in love with these from Oli+Me. I want. I need. Size 5.5... cough cough, wink wink...

Find more dotted rings at SecretCharm (below).

The Real Flower Company

I worked as a florist in Oxford for 4 years and I love beautiful flowers. The Real Flower Company is one of my favourite florists, they deliver all across the UK offer the opportunity to buy 'Roses for a Year', where a bunch of flowers is delivered monthly for a whole year. What an amazing present that would make! Although considering the "medium" size bouquet option is £660 for the year, I may not be putting that one on my birthday list just yet.
