And this one looks pretty cosy. Minimal but cosy. Looks like it could be in either Norway or Sweden – it´s got that kind of style. It´s the doors, the wooden floor and the furry cover on the stool for cold days (which there are many of). Via Convoy .

On our trip to the South of France, hopefully we´ll drive across the border to Italy too. I always do well with a little bit (read: a lot) of pizza and a decent cup of espresso taken standing by the bar! Photo by The Sartorialist .

Went for a walk in the forest last week and came across the sweetest cats. A whole bunch of them in fact. But these two on the chair were the first to catch my eye.

Bought these Prada sandals in 1996 and they are just as gorgeous today as they were the first day I got them. And equally stylish. Roman never dates.

One of my favourite rings. I bought this one in San Francisco. It´s a huge garnet. I love the fact that garnets are formed when high temperatures and/or pressure is a factor and geologists often use them as a gauge of the amount of temperature and pressure that was present during their formation. The fig tree and the figs are equally beautiful, but for entirely different reasons!

Bonjour! A photo with a French mood, sea and strips! And with another Hermès bag. This time it´s the Constance bag.

Classic! The Hermès Birkin bag was first made and named after the British singer Jane Birkin in 1984. As the story goes, on a flight from Paris to London in that year, her favorite handbag, an Hermès Kelly bag spilled the content onto the floor. While complaining about the impracticality of the bag, the then CEO of Hermès, overheard her lamenting, as he was also a passenger on the plane. During subsequent conversations, Jane Birkin designed what she considered to be the perfect bag. And hey presto….the amazing Birkin Bag!

I have an old print of this house that a friend from the AA in London gave me. It´s precious and beautiful!

By Christo . Christo and his wife Jeanne-Claude planned a project based on Jeanne-Claude’s idea to surround eleven islands in Miami’s Biscayne Bay with 603,850 m2 of pink polypropylene floating fabric. It was completed on 4 May 1983 with the aid of 430 workers and could be admired for two weeks.

Exhibition poster by Chris Ware . This reminds me of house drawings I did when I was young, except mine were not quite as three dimensional!
