I actually don't remember anymore where I first stumpled upon Swedish illustrator Emma Kristina Hultkrantz's amazing artworks. But they had me hooked with their whimsical and yet minimalist style. The bold edges and pastel colours are an amazing combo.
Some of you may know her from Matchbook Magazine where she does a take on What's In My Bag with all the famous ladies out there, like Marilyn, Jackie, Birgitte, Coco etc.

And today, I just discovered she has started a small line of scarves with her wonderful prints. Limited of about 100 each, these could really become a treasure and a keepsake. I am quite hooked on the Marie Antoinette one.

I am thinking of saving up for custom bespoke illustrations of the three luxury items I am saving for, like a white Birkin bag, Chanel 2.55 bag, and Louboutin heels. Just to help me remind myself everyday when I dance around in my apartment.

In case you love her work as much as I do, check out her shop at etsy and her online portfolio.
She also has a blog where she posts inspirations and small everyday things.

Rococo Fashion

As you may know, Rococo is one of my favourite time eras in fashion, art, and history. Such friviliousness (is that even a word?!), sex, allure, and charm centered in one century. I do know that experts limit the term rococo to just a section of the 18th century, but I will apply it rather broadly here given that I am not conducting a research engine but mere interests and inspirations.

All of these faboulous beauties are found via Pinterest, and they are all collected in my board Rococo, which is increasingly becoming more and more popular. I get new followers almost every day - it is crazy! And wonderful that so many share my interest in vintage fashion and especially rococo. Please join, and take a look. Here's the link to my rococo-board. Enjoy!

"Let them eat..... Diamonds"

Some weeks ago, I discovered this beautiful jewelry campaign inspired by Marie Antoinette (perhaps more the movie by Sofia Coppola than the authentic queen but who cares!?). Stunning dresses and settings and I just had to share it..
