- STATIONERY PORN #1 -

It was ridiculously difficult choosing which pictures to share with you from upon a fold in this edition of Stationary Porn, but I finally narrowed it down! Make sure to check out their store, it is absolutely amazing (and it's Australian, so shipping is pretty reasonable).

Oh gosh, I've just realised I haven't posted since March. Hopefully my next project should put an end to that. Inspired by Nicole over at Making It Lovely and her 30 Before Thirty Project, I starting my own 24 Before 24 Project - 24 things I want to do/visit/make/bake before my 24th Birthday (on the 24th February).

8. Do a wine tour of Margaret River or the Swan Valley
9. Bake a gruyere souffle
10. Visit the WA Museum
11. Watch all three LOTR extended editions back to back

- PALACE PLATES -

I'm in LOVE with this set of tableware from Selab & Alessandro Zambelli - each set stacks into a building! 

There's a set each of plates, side plates, soup bowls and small bowls in the collection. I must get my hands on them. You can buy each Porcelain Palace individually or get the whole collection (and 10% off as well!) from A+R Store. Thank good they do international shipping!

- DANCING ON TALC, ROLLING IN THE SAND -

Browsing through Mamamia I came across this lovely clip featuring Lou Douillon, french actress and model, for label Vanessa Bruno - hope you like it!

- APOLIGISES DEAR BLOG -

I'm sorry blog for ignoring you for so long... Its that I was busy with work. Then it was my birthday... And there was probably other stuff too. I'm try to be better in future. And share with you the exciting things that are happening - like my upcoming trip to Paris! Promise.

I'll be spending time with my lovely friend Elise (aka. the gorgeous woman above), eating macaroons and sitting in cute little cafes people watching in just over two months!

- CHIP CHOP -

I love the sense of fun that surrounds Chip Chop - both in their products and their styling. Makes me want to don a platinum blonde wig and some rock star-esque eyeliner!

Waitress Tee

Le Fame Tee

Prequel Tote

(Wouldn't mind one of these either)

- PAPER PASTRIES -

I'm a big fan of stationary (everyone in my office gave me stationary for xmas!), so when I found Paper Pastries I couldn't wait to share it here. Especially loving the enamored, know it all, make a point and chef's pencil sets ($10 US each)
