I have an embarassingly huge collection of graphic & band tees, but I haven’t been wearing them much at all lately & I don’t think I’ve brought any new ones for almost a year. As soon as I saw this dog mouth tee though I knew I had to have it & couldn’t wait for it to arrive. I’ve mentioned loads of times in the past that I love clothes that remind me of things I love or subtly hint to others about my interests, and what kind of crazy dog lady would I be without anything dog themed? I like that this is almost abstract though, it’s plain, graphic & in your face, and I just can’t stop wearing it!

I’ve been trying to ease off wearing this fedora so much, because I felt like I was wearing it in almost every post, but outfits like this make me realise exactly why I love it so much. The rest of this outfit is really simple & casual, and it just adds that little extra bit of drama that really finishes the whole thing off. It’s addictive, and that’s why I always find myself reaching for it when getting dressed, everything else just seems unfinished without it on my head!

Hari & Deepti

Hari & Deepti an artist couple based in Colarado create magical shadow boxes from nothing more than intricately cut & layered sheets of paper & LED’s. The simplicity of the medium combined with their painstakingly detailed craftsmanship is what gives these pieces such beauty, and the stark contrast between the works lit & unlit states is mesmerising. Minimal, precice layers of white are transformed into dreamy, atmospheric visions once the lights go on, and you are truly able to appericate the level of intircacy & detail that has gone into each work.

Their pieces feel like scenes from ancient fairytales & myths, epic tales told around campfires of heroes versus monsters & good triumphing over evil. They speak of the wonders and beauty of nature, of a long gone time when man existed harmoniously alongside the rest of the world.

“Paper is brutal in its simplicity as a medium. It demands the attention of the artist while it provides the softness they need to mold it in to something beautiful. It is playful, light, colorless and colorful. It is minimal and intricate. It reflects light, creates depth and illusions in a way that it takes the artist through a journey with limitless possibilities.”

Maui Jim ‘Kolohe’ Sunglasses *

The weather makes such a huge difference to my mood, finally we’re getting some proper sunshine & I feel so much brighter and like I just want to get stuff done. Plus, I don’t think theres any better feeling than the first time in the year you can step outside in just a tank top after a long winter of being bundled up under a million layers. Of course I’m hiding out in the shade here though, I’m so pale at the moment that I actually glow when the sunlight hits me & I think I’d blind you all if I tried to take a photo in direct sunlight!

These ‘Kolohe’ sunglasses from Maui Jim arrived just in time for the nice weather & I’ve been enjoying the super lightweight shape of them compared to my usual heavier wayfarer or cat eye styles. They pride themselves on having some of the best lenses out there, and after trying them out I’m totally sold. I usually find myself squinting a little even through my darkest lenses, as my eyes are quite sensitive, but not with these. Everything looks so sharp and bright through them too. The best way I can describe it is they make everywhere look like a travel brouchure, all deep blues, golds & highly saturated bold colours, you can see a little comparison here to see what I mean. I’m still getting used to the more rounded shape of these, as I usually go for squared or angular styles, but I’ve been wearing them non stop since they arrived & so expect to see a lot more of them over the summer!
