de lacy*







Beautiful bags and clutchs by Uk based designer
Edward Hugh de Lacy. He grew up in Suffolk before moving north to study for a Fine Art Degree at Leeds Metropolitan University, at the turn of the new millennium. De Lacy brand was born in 2004, all the bags , purses , wallets are hand made by Edward and are unique pieces of work. I love them : they are a little bit rock and roll and a little bit hippy chic! You can buy here.


I have already said that I was tagged by Ruth-Anne from the lovely blog About some things, so here are random things about me:

*In my dream list there is: speaking english like a mother tongue! *I adore Comme des garcons: everything! *My style icon is Katherine Hepburn. *In 2008 I'd like to have more time to blog.

In the next days I'll post people I'm going to tag.
Have a good night (if you are here in Europe) and have a nice day (if you are in the other side of the earth).

Many times I've noticed that if you like a company name , you'll love her products!It happens with Peace Industry: when I've seen the name of this company, I've fallen in love with. And I looove their felt rugs. Melina and Dodd Raissnia of Peace Industry own and operate their own workshop in Iran where they have perfected the best methods for producing the highest quality felt rugs, all of which are designed by Melina. Peace industry has brought sophistication in the felt.

swiss souvenirs*




Hello everybody, hope you've enjoyed your holiday! Here are with new inspirations: the swiss textile designer Judith Andexlinger has done these bags for a tiny exibition about "souvenirs de la Suisse" in Rome. Every bag is handmade by Judith, the bags show typical flowers of the alps (alpenrose, edelweiss and enzian), appearing in a kind of corona. Judith founds her inspiration in classical swiss costumes of eastern switzerland, where she grew up. I love the way a souvenir or traditional simbols can become so stilish!Love them.
She sells them over her blog or over email.
