pretty things … and more
Kate and Laura Mulleavy founded Rodarte in the fall of 2005. They have received a number of awards in the fashion industry since then.
Rodarte is now stocked around the world in retailers such as Barney’s, Neiman Marcus, Dover street Market and Podium.
Their work is incredibly beautiful and creative … i hope to one day own some of their pieces.

Cool book about Marc Jacobs path to becoming one of worlds most recognizable and ground breaking fashion designers.
“Marc Jacobs, from whiz-kid extraordinaire to international fashion superstar”
ah, i find myself more and more addicted to buying, thinking about, talking about and obsessing over clothing and fabric.
Some certain looks i am into at the moment –
– soft pink, grey marl, fine, slinky or chunky knits,red, leather, spark, soft cotton – calico, oversized jackets – floppy lapelles, heavy silk satin, cropped trousers, small singlets, small sneakers ,ballerina inspired anything, tan/camel/biscuit, lace – cotton lace mostly, angora, stripes silk shirts etc etc… the list would go on but it would get silly.
I am moving (finally!) into my own place so am going to start more sewing and get a bit more creative with my existing clothing as i figure i will have more room to now… this is all so exciting!!!

I have recently remembered Pippi Longstockings and how amazing she is! Her full name is Pippilotta Delicatessa Windowshade Mackrelmint Ephraim’s Daughter Longstocking…
Her story has always made me slightly sad and homesick – i think because she never has a Mother and her Dad gets lost at sea and even though they reunite eventually she decides to live in her house (Villa Villekulla) with only her monkey and her horse while he goes back to his boat. In sayying that the story always made me feel adventurous and i used to look up to her not only because she was super strong and cheeky but because of her amazing pigtails and stripey knee highs! She is the ultimate tomboy and i love her for that!
