MAKENEW, Valentino and keeping dry

Pretty Things goes downtown
I haven’t had much time for blogging recently: I’ve been working on a wedding guide that is taking more planning that my own big day. But today I managed to get to the reopening of Pretty Things Boutique. Although I’m … Continue reading

Precious things
Today I stopped by Clothes Horse to look at jewellery for a photoshoot. Merle always has really interesting pieces: my husband bought me a leather and mink necklace, apparently from Russia, for my birthday. I am loving this lovebird vintage … Continue reading
