Etsy Finds - Bird Ave

Continuing with my slight obsession with affordable and unique art I am excited to share Bird Ave with you!  They make fantastic skyline prints of cities, towns and tourist spots around the world, and can also customise prints for you!  So you don't have to have the neon blue pictured below, you could have lime, pink or orange to name a few!

Below is my town, Melbourne, and also Bora Bora!

There are many many more cities available, so you can purchase the skyline of a place you have visited and loved, or of your home town. They are only $20 each, so you could start a collection!

I also love this 'coffee isn't a drug, it's a vitamin' print.  

And this 'I *heart* NY print', soooo clever.

All prints are made to fit the Ikea Ribba frame, so no custom frame jobs required.  Check out the Bird Ave store HERE.

Gillian Zinser

I love the style and home of 90210's Gillian Zinser.  Super laid back, eclectic hippy chic may be a fair description.

How eclectic is Gillian's home?  I wish the photos showed it off a little more, but I cannot find any that do the job.  But if I were to imagine what it was like, I would guess it was something like this:

The rest of her patio would look like this:

Home Beautiful

Her lounge, just like this:

Architectural Digest

Her kitchen would be classic, with an eclectic twist, perhaps like this one:

House and Home

Her bathroom would have character like this:

The Decorista

And her bedroom just like this one:

C Magazine

Logie Awards

The Logie Awards were held last night at Melbourne's Crown Casino.  Its the night where supposedly the best of Australian TV is awarded and celebrated.  I don't always agree with the winners, but the fashions were spot on this year.

Asher Keddie in J'Aton

Delta Goodrem in Tommy Hilfiger

Jen Hawkins, wow. 

My favourite look from TV presenter, Magdalena Roze

Lauren Phillips in Jayson Brundson

And favourite look from the boys, One Direction, lol!!

Jewellery Storage

I love seeing the creative ways that people store their jewellery.  Mine is a bit of a mess, so I am definitely drawing inspiration and motivation from these spaces.

The Coveteur

My first stop would be the local antique store to pick up some vintage cups and saucers to use for storing rings and bracelets.  I also love the idea of the hands for rings.  A quick search on eBay for "palmistry hand" yields a couple of suitable results.  Also, 'glass hand ring' brings up a heap of coloured glass hands just like the one above.

Boys and Arrows

I love this photo recently published of Ashley Tisdale on holidays.  She looks fit and healthy, but most importantly that bikini is fabulous.  After a bit of an internet stalk, I located its maker.

The bikini is by Boys and Arrows and the print is Indian Summer, available at Boutique to You.

Pity it is getting colder and colder in Melbourne, I have no excuse or justification to buy it!

Happy Easter

Happy Easter to all my blog visitors and readers! I am off on holidays and will have no internet, so no blogging.  

I shall leave you with this piece of cuteness!

Candy Jeans

I love these candy coloured jeans Frankie Sandford recently wore at Heathrow airport. I also love that Hermes Birkin bag! 

Yahoo.com

The Birkin bag may be waaay out of reach, but the candy coloured jeans are certainly not.

1. ASOS Cornflower blue jeans are a steal at around $52 Aussie Dollars

2. A little more pricey are Paige Denim Verdugo jeans in Mint for $169

3. Lovely MOTO at Topshop lavender jeans for 38 pounds. I have these in burgundy and they are super comfortable.

4. ASOS Washed Rose jeans for the Frankie look. Only $56.

The great thing about these brands is they all make a myriad of candy colours. So if you have a preferred fit or budget, you can still buy a colour that suits you.  I am deciding between mint and lavender, but my favourite cut is the MOTO at Topshop. Although I think for the price, ASOS are great too.
