Reading Watching Listening


Sylvia Plath's drawings, a book compiled by her daughter


This film is so many levels of delightful, gigantic post incoming


Kate Bush! I really love the cover art of this album too, the colours and the illustrations.
 I love Kate Bush's lyrics, she wrote some of her songs when she was still a child! 
I hear that and want to give up on being an adult!

Jane Birkin and Serge Gainsbourg


Sixties style!! Oh Jane, what a beauty


The high waists, boots, shidt dresses, floppy hair with big fringes, and of course, the basket! A look many have tried to replicate and failed (myself included)


Above pic is a favourite



Suspenders need to be worn by more people! Sussy-penders as I like to call them :)


What a gown, what a couple!

But then I found this: and I want to poke my eyeballs out, was this an 80's phase? 
Dear god please someone say it's so, it can be excused that way as the 80's couldn't have known the pain it would inflict on fashion everywhere.

Hedy Lamarr


Even just her Wiki (here) is brief synopsis of a roller coaster life, she's also part of the reason we can all enjoy Wireless technology today, how awesome is that

Jezebel Sationery, where art thou?


Whatever happened to Jezebel Stationery? I have come across her designs many many a time, as I wished to call a 'Boudicca and Romola rode white horses' tote my own, but their site has up and gone! Disappeared! It is so strange when things disappear off the internet, like the Unicorn Diaries! Quite the feat to pull off, nevertheless, please enjoy her beautiful beautiful artwork I have pinched pictures of from all over the interwebz





The delicate silhouettes, the suggestions of a raucous night life....ah! What dreams brought to life!


Link to blog here good read too








I am most definitely a gin drinker, if nothing else






Midsummer Night's dream! You can never do any wrong!


Pics from wherever I could find these delightful designs
