   William Morris (24 March 1834 – 3 October 1896) 
   the English textile designer, artist, writer, and socialist 
   associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and 
   the English Arts and Crafts Movement. 
   Morris experimented in self-publishing and 
   encouraged the creation of small presses in America 
   that published books, pamphlets, and magazines 
   to spread the gospel of liberated work. 
   In 1901, inspired by Morris, the New York based 
   Gustav Stickley founded the periodical known as 
   The Craftsman that began by expounding 
   the philosophy of the English Arts & Crafts movement.
    As it evolved, the publication is credited with being 
    the leading voice of the Arts & Crafts movement in US.
    I would love to get my hands on this CRAFTSMAN
 on William Morris (October 1901)







 FENDI
   LARGE PEEKABOO 
  BRUSHED-PYTHON TOTE



 

Uhm, yes, I collect framed insects and butterflies, 
and one day I would love to find 
the perfect stuffed fully grown peacock 
(because those beautiful tail feathers only develop in his third year). 
But for now, another collection of FRAMED 
BUTTERFLIES  is on my wish list.




LOUIS VUITTON
         PENELOPE    SUNGLASSES




One of my new years' resolutions is to "enfin" start taking pictures. 
As in taking photography classes and all that 
and learning how to develop photos myself. 
So, I thought, I ask Santa for the very best:
The classic HASSELBLAD 500C introduced in 1957, 
after the first model 1600F (1948) had problems with its original focal-plane. 
The new 500C allowed the use of several excellent Zeiss lenses, 
with their own individual Compur leaf shutters.
Sounds professional, doesn't it? Haha



Vintage CAHIERS DE CINEMA please, 
especially the early ones from the 50's and 60's




The autobiography of the living rock legend
Mr Keith Richards LIFE launched in October
of this year, is on top of my wish list, actually...





  
I am looking for this vintage GUCCI Tote for quite
some time now. Maybe Santa still has one in stock?




Look at this delicious BOTTEGA VENETA booty
from the FW2010 collection. Perfect for snowy
days, and the colour, hmmmmm...


MERRY CHRISTMAS to all of you! 
Enjoy sharing gifts, quality time, love & laughter 
and a listening ear with your loved ones!
All this, dressed to the nines, with a glass of bubbles of course.
...and don't forget to wear your fabulous heels!
Cheers!
