Norweigan Wood create some amazing clothing. No doubt you’ve seen their work on bloggers such as Susie Bubble and Style Rookie! All items are handmade in Montreal and i’m sure they live upto their popular reputation. I have a huge soft spot for the fringe bandage skirt pictured to the left! Norweigan wood also do cag e skirts, elastic harnesses (sort of like braces..but not..) and feather necklaces. Check them out!

Whilst searching the internet for “cute stuff” (you’d think I had nothing better to do, right?) I stumbled across Chet and Dot. This shop sells the sweetest soft toys i’ve ever seen (boyfriend, if you’re reading, they’d make great “well done for getting into uni” presents!) along with pin cushions, stationary, felted acorn necklaces other home goods. Just about everything I love in one shop.
Oh I love etsy. Check them out!

Do you like art? Of course you do. Me too. especially when it’s free. There is not much you can get for free these days so I suggest making the most of this opportunity! Feed Your Soul is a great project in which a different artist each month contributes a piece of artwork in a downloadable format for anyone and everyone to download and print out. If I ever get any ink in my printer, i’m going to be printing out the Belle & Boo illustration to the left! You should definitely take a look.

So when i’m not reading blogs, i’m looking for new blogs to read (oh it’s a hard life!) and I recently came across Park & Cube. I don’t know if I missed the boat because this girl has a beautiful blog and i’d never seen it until a few weeks ago! Written by a Graphic Designer studying in London Park & Cube is the perfect mixture of outfits and pictures of this talented designers life. Any blog with great pictures is commendable in my book – and Park & Cube is definately one of them, not to mention the outfits! have a look!

I really really want this skirt from Pret a Portabello. I guess I could probably make one very similar, but with no fabric shops around here i’m a little stuck. Dont you think it’d look lovely for summer? I really need to stop browsing online shops because my wishlist is huuuge right now – something that doesn’t make me smile! Hunting for cheaper alternatives will start very soon, and i’ll let you know how I get on!

I love the last skirt! And Feed Your Soul. And I also would like to know what font you use! I have been obsessively trawling through free font sites to no avail, I guess it never occurred to me to ask. xx
Denise – the font is from the Kursivschrift family : )
I adore the that bandage skirt, too. If only the prices weren’t so high…
