Tuesday, March 29, 2011. This March I Liked. Bring on Spring please:). Some favorite images this last month have been-. My new favorite dress, from kuukukka. I have decided one day, in the not so distance future, I will most definitely color code my books. Gold bangle from Irish jewellery designer Clare Grennan. I have just invested in one of her rings from this range. Lucky me. A wonderful cafe somewhere in Poland. Photographed by my friend Johnny McMillan. My first dog was a Schnauzer.

Design Fingers: March 2010

Wednesday, March 24, 2010. I have fallen for bunting totally and utterly. It just has so many uses! Outdoors, indoors, celebrations, brightening a room. We use some lovely bunting when we run our. But I decided to do a very very easy make post for bunting for those of you who are, so far, sewing machine less. And I can use it to brighten up my lovely studio! This is when you get to reward yourself for keeping (hoarding! All those scraps of fabric. Using them up is so satisfying! At this point place your ...

Design Fingers: April 2011
http://designfingers.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 12, 2011. Weeks later I am still in love with Prada's Fall 2011 Ready-to-Wear collection. Those colours and those block prints! A feast for the eyes. It's wonderful to see current references to Saint Laurent's Mondrain dress walking down the runway. There were garments in the collection that I didn't connect with whatsoever- snakeskin coats with fur lapels and faux fur jackets. But the strength of the other garments balanced this out. Photos from the ever dependable style.com.

Design Fingers: August 2010
http://designfingers.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 27, 2010. One Day in San Francisco. It's wonderful when you come across lots of exciting people and places in one day. Which is what holidays in creative locations are all about! Firstly I met lovely Canadian Illustrator Emma SanCartier. Who is now based in San Francisco. Her work is both playful and heartful. She showed me the lovely shop Paxton Gate's Curiosites. Later I stumbled upon Mission Bicycle Company. Pastel coloured homes and crisscross tram wires. Sunday, August 8, 2010.

Design Fingers: September 2010
http://designfingers.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 23, 2010. Colours for autumn and winter 2010/2011. I loved creating these. They are up on my studio wall reminding me to be inspired by COLOUR and colour combinations! Homespun, quietly rustic, warm, textiles are subtle, folk style prints. Baskets, coloured glass, type, handwriting, milk bottles, jars, wood, industrial, plaid and check. Bright, quirky, illustrative, humorous, block colours, hand drawn, make-do-and mend aesthetic, mix of patterns, innovative, bold, optimism.

Design Fingers: From Japan With Love
http://designfingers.blogspot.com/2011/01/from-japan-with-love.html
Monday, January 31, 2011. From Japan With Love. Quirky presents from Japan. The most beautiful tape. Taking my packaging to a whole new level. Sweets far too pretty to eat. Quite possibly the most amazing erasers I have owned to date. I will no longer be satisfied with normal post-its! Felt specifically for shortcake creations. This Chelsea sweets looks so great!

Design Fingers: November 2010
http://designfingers.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 11, 2010. My New Fashion Crush. My new fashion crush is Whistles. Their photographs don't do their clothes justice. Their winter collection is just lovely- elegant but with that essential edge, and with great fabrics that will last. Delicious. This winter they feature a collection by Serbian-born designer Roksanda Ilincic, who is a relative newcomer to the fashion scene. It reminded me of a favourite Spring collection in 2007 by Chloe, it didn't receive many positive reviews but I love...

Design Fingers: Betty Holmes
http://designfingers.blogspot.com/2011/01/betty-holmes.html
Monday, January 17, 2011. Before I am lost to the Spring 2011 catwalk reports, I want to to celebrate a fantastic style of Winter 2010/2011. Betty Draper meet Sherlock Holmes. For me it began last July when American Vogue featured the fashion story 'Magnificent Obsession'. Peter Lindbergh photographed Natalia Vodianova and Ewan McGregor- Fall collections via a 1950s domestic love story. Stunning. On the left Prada wool and silk dress and Prada handbag. On the right Dries Van Noten wool dress.
