Designer Discovery - Fause Haten

Although Fause Haten is my discovery for today, this Brazilian fashion designer has been doing his thing since the 1990’s.
I love the glamour and glitz of the fall/winter 2010 collection, and the contrasting delicateness of the pale colours with strong construction in summer 09 . His collections are all about glamour, glitz and decadence! FUN FUN!

CLEVER !


I came across this image and had to share it. Its so funny and clever .

No credits as I cant remeber where I found this !
WHITE or TOO WHITE ?

I love the idea of an all white home. For me I will always admire and conceptually want an all white space, but I don’t think I could ever really in one on a day to day basis.
I need colour , I don’t think I could live without colour !

Take a look at these all white pristine spaces.

Infinite shades of blue , The Maldives

So the other day I read an article about the Maldives sinking !!
Apparently in preparation of this, the inhabitants of this stunning island nation are going to relocate to other neighbouring countries or they might buy themselves a new slice of land somewhere.
On the flip side there are also a lot of experts who say absolutely none of this is true and the Island will be just fine.
Either which way the Maldives is now on the top of my MUST VISIT list, after all one can’t take a chance of not visiting a paradise faced with possible extinction!


When I do get there, this is where I’ll be staying , Makunufushi, South MalĂ© Atoll, Maldives in the Indian Ocean.........

TRANSLUCENT

When I saw these GLASS BAUBLES I fell in love with them... then I discovered the rest of Caroline Swift’s artistry and wanted pretty much everything from her collection.
These products are so unique and authentic that it’s just pure Luxury.
She creates translucent cashmere sweaters, alongside paper-thin bone china tea lights!!
Makes me think of a Midsummer Night’s Dream ........!

Oooh and the packaging,fab,fab,fab...............
