3 Things I Loved this Week

Happy Sunday! Unfortunately we are back to work/school tomorrow but what better way to commiserate than a new series I am starting every Sunday on my blog - 3 things I loved this week!

1. Bonlook Glasses

These Urban Dandy frames in tortoise are seriously stylish, and a steal at only $99.  They also offset the carbon emissions on all shipping, so they are an eco friendly company too - bonus :)

2.  This eclectic Stockholm bedroom

The gallery wall, bedspread and arched window make this a seriously cool space. Click on the link above to see the entire apartment.

3. Tupug

I love pugs, and this Tupug poster by The Pug Luv is too cute!!

Apartment Envy - Alina Cho

Feeling a bit of motivation to begin blogging again! Sometimes you just need to take a little break, especially if blogging begins to feel like a chore.  I am hoping to commit to blogging 3-4 times per week. Manageable, but not so much I get uninspired, or tired of it again!

Vogue featured the NY apartment of CNN correspondant Alina Cho, and it is nothing short of incredible. It is 100% my style, eclectic and not matchy matchy, but with feminine touches. I could move right in...AND she has pink walls!!!!

West Elm coming to Australia!!

This is possibly the most exciting thing to happen since....well....ever (in the retail world).  Yes it was exciting when Zara opened in Melbourne, but you could always buy that at a reasonable price online.  With interiors giant West Elm, many items have been out of reach simply due to exorbitant shipping costs.....but not any more.

Due to open in Sydney in 2013 along with Pottery Barn and Williams-Sonoma, West Elm will now be my go to retailer for up to date interiors accents.

The one thing I have been dying to buy is a new rug, here are some faves on the current US website:

Istanbul Rug

 Zig Zag Rug

Safari Rug

Kite Rug

Asos Sale Finds!

I love a good sale, and I love ASOS, so I was very excited to pick up some bargains in the lead up to summer!

River Island Maxi, only $20!

ASOS Leopard Pants (A bit crazy, hopefully will look good dressed down for summer). They were a steal at only $26.

Now I am going a little bonkers for these out of control printed ASOS Pants, only $36.

Gabriel Hendifar Interiors

Thanks to Pinterest I was able to stumble upon these beautiful interiors by Gabriel Hendifar.  The first image makes me want to go right out and by a persion-y aztec-y rug and a lovely marble topped coffee table!

And this image is all about the light fitting (and the affordable Ikea Rand rug)

Outdoor Living

Its currently winter in Australia, which means there is not much outdoor living going on. However, I am furiously searching for outdoor spaces so I am ready to revamp my outdoor space come Spring.

Feast your eyes on these lush outdoor spaces.

David Jones Fashion Launch

David Jones held their official 2012/13 Spring Summer fashion launch in Sydney last night, attended by 400 VIP guests.

 My favourite look of the night was off the catwalk by TV actress Jodi Gordon.  She wore a gorgeous tangerine dress with dipped hemline by Josh Goot.  Combined with slick hair and a red lip, she looked fantastic :)

What I also love is the conservative cut of the dress.  Its not too tight and the sleeves make it quite classy.

My favourite on catwalk look was Miranda in Lisa Ho.  Just love the colours, cut and flow of this dress!
