0 peep loves {november}


I am a winter girl through and through (unless I'm on Waikiki beach then I'm a summer girl) so I apologise for the very winter-esque loves this month! The Hermes iWatch is dangerously tempting, as is this Moooi Egg vase from Space Furniture, the sideboard that dreams are made of from Maxalto, hi-top heaven in these Minna Parikka's, this sofa is also from Maxalto at Space,  the glorious bowl is from Aussie company Mooku, State of Escape have done it again with this new 'freestyle' cross body bag, and I am desperate for these Claire Aristides diamond earrings (plus its my birthday in 4 weeks)

Before West Elm came to Australia I used to scour the site dreaming of being able to get this type of stuff in Australia at such a great price point, despite us having Westy for a while now I still pop over to the US site to see what we're missing here and what we can expect in store soon. Fingers crossed we get some of these delights...




Finally, there ain't nothing more I love than a creatives' office. They are always so beautiful because they are chock full of what makes you feel your most creative. This is the office of Marni designer Consuelo Castiglioni (her whole home is featured here at Vogue)

0 the print collective


I just stumbled across the Print Collective, a website dedicated to delivering high quality art in small editions. I LOVE Neil Bailey's Mugshot (above) These are limited run and well priced, perfect for someone who wants something original without paying a huge price!

I went in to get another little piece of Kelly Wearstler from one of my all time favourite shops, Becker Minty, lucky for me it is literally right underneath one of my besties apartments in Potts Point. Everything in there is gulpingly good, take this bronzed polar bear (above) and Felix Forests Chernobyl series (above and below)



Another new obsession is Dina Broadhurst, I found her on instagram and I'm really inspired by her, she is an artist in Sydney and I have seen her collage works popping up all over the place, notably in last months Real Living mag, this one above is of particular interest to me and I'm looking forward to it becoming available.  Below is her living room, I'm adore her Tom Dixon Void pendant and the self painted wall mural, I love the contrast of the ultra modern in this (what appears to be) deco apartment, don't get me started on the corseted chairs...



As for my latest lustings, these Tom Dixon 100 million year old petrified wood bookends are ALL THAT, this is pretty much the perfect dome from Becker Minty and Dinosaur Designs new flower range is exquisite, don't you think?


I saw my West Elm sofa on Rue Mags insta and fell in love with the styling, especially that trio of vases, perfect!


and lastly a little fashion injection, the Volta bag from Vuitton is beyond, it's a massive pity that it's $4500, oh to have all the money in the world...

0 still life {chelsea hing}


Chelsea Hing is a Melbourne based interior designer who has created a genius online shop and styling service. She creates 'still life' vignettes to buy as a package and if you're in Melbourne a stylist will come to your home and install it. You can buy a whole look or piece by piece. Here are some of my faves. 



I'm desperate for this gorgeous Andrei Davidoff dish below

1 for sale / on the hunt


All this redecorating has made me VERY antsy for a new sofa situation. I am officially over my modular and need a pair. First though I need to sell this bad boy, it is the Sitta from Freedom and retailed for $3340 when I bought it a few years ago. It has a chaise piece that attaches either side not pictured here, so if you are interested please let me know, all offers considered!

Now to the fun part...finding a new lady to fill her spot. After selecting these from Orson & Blake for the Bondi house I am thinking they may work in my space too, but perhaps the smaller Kathryn sofa?


In my dreams the Muuto rose sofa is what I end up with but with a growing baby I don't think its wise somehow...


any suggestions for great affordable sofas please send them my way!

2 project bondi {shopping cart}


As I have said before, I am certainly fulfilling all my shopping urges of late, Bludot has been a lifesaver, especially with their Toro chair and Strut consoles


Villa Interiors came up trumps with a pair of these chairs and a pair of these concrete lamps


I also managed to convince Spence & Lyda to part with one of their shop props to fill a long skinny wall at the house - so perfect for a beach house!


Then there's trusty West Elm, perfect classics


The deadline for completion is looming, only a month to go!

WARNING: CHILD RELATED POST (but totes worth reading it)

Brand new discovery! (pretty much all things kids are a brand new discovery for me though) This dressing your child is a big deal these days, I never knew how much was out there. My impending child's wardrobe is literally better than mine at this stage, think trench coats and breton stripes from paris, Missoni and Hermes towels, Marc Jacobs hats and booties and a plethora of gorgeous grey denim and stripes (plus some insane pony hair leopard print shoes, ahem Alice, boys can wear leopard right?) All those gorgeous goodies are what I've been given as gifts, meaning I haven't had to do that much shopping so I haven't been fully indoctrinated into the kids shopping which is very dangerous in the online world (ahem Zoie) Browsing the net, and a helpful link from SIL Alice, led me to Hunter & Harper (names de jour, non?) these are clothes I'm willing to start my kids shopping voyage with. I immediately fell for the stripe Goat Milk onesie of course, it is literally the softest organic cotton I have ever felt, if they made these in adult I would have bought 10 (tops that is), then you begin to think about bedding, toys, throws etc. and luckily H&H have that base covered too. I was lucky enough to walk away with this gorgeous Flink striped crib sheet in slate, the perfect neutral, 100% organic cotton and 220 thread count. The goodies come delivered in chic, recyclable little boxes all gorgeously wrapped. I am quickly learning that the modern mumma wants things that are 'safe' for their kids and this extends to clothes, no yucky chemicals etc. are used and the girls have done the hard yards to source the most eco-friendly product, this means less work for me - YAY!

1 etsy roundup


I get completely lost in time on Etsy, I start searching for one thing (a Scandinavian mobile thanks Coco Republic blog) then the clever clogs website suggests other things I may like, why yes! yes I do love that cushion, thank you for the helpful suggestion Etsy! These cushions above are a custom order for someone from Etsy shop CC Deux Vie (I want them too please) then there was the (un helpful) suggestion of this side table below, unhelpful because it's in bloody New York, keep it local please Etsy, respect my needs for reasonable shipping. Then I spy something right up my shipping alley, a downloadable skull. This Etsy shop called Assembli offers DIY paper sculptures, you just need some serious folding skillz. Another win with this Leigh Viner dot art print, but a large fail with this useless suggestion, I actually got conned into thinking you knew me!

May I just start by saying I had a weird dream last week that I was going to give birth today (4 weeks before due date) so I am freaked out today, plus I still have 4 weeks owing to me of solid couch resting Real Housewives watching, cupcake eating time. Now let's get to business. I am slightly infatuated with everything neoprene, I don't think I am cool enough to wear it in this form but boy is it cute! The top is from Melbourne brand WITU, the pink wire Lismore stool is new Freedom as is the white Lovett coffee table, the white egg vase is Moooi available from Space Furniture, below is the Web Bench from Freedom


Also new to my little peepers is this adorbs mickey mouse skull from Lunar Store in Melbourne
