rather enjoying kasia‘s photos on flickr recently. for some particular reason i find gloomy pictures of london uplifting.

also: must. buy. more. film.

no.6 calcite pocket tee / no.6 nirvana button down skirt / acne leather short pistol boots / a.p.c. bucket bag / cutler & gross round frame sunglasses

sometimes i spend entire days at work looking at images like these. mostly this is great. sometimes it just fuels my wanderlust to the point where i could burst.

click photos for sources.

watched lost in translation again since returning from holidaying in japan. so so wonderful. was acutely reminded of being a giant, awkward foreigner attempting to navigate the delicate and altogether baffling japanese culture and technology. i probably bowed to every passing stranger in an attempt not to offend or insult.

bill murray singing roxy music’s more than this completely slays me. like all sofia coppola movies, the soundtrack is exceptional.

i adore this new campaign from stella mccartney. it’s so maximalist without being too over the top… if that’s possible. it features one of my favourite models, natalia vodianova and was shot by some of my favourite photographers, mert alas + marcus piggott.

huge fan of this work by fabio ongatara design for baker d. chirico.

be sure to stop by the artisan bakery next time you’re in melbourne.

so it’s now been a whole six weeks since quitting sugar and the chocolate cravings have been, up until now, kept safely at bay.

then thanks to garance i spent a full hour trying to find an online store that will deliver some blocks of chocolatey goodness by the mast brothers to my address in australia. the thought of the almond and sea salt combination had me dribbling on my keyboard.

is the idea of spending $50 + shipping on 5 blocks of chocolate completely crazy? a craving taken too far? sadly i can’t see it through as no one ships outside of the united states. *tears*
