Vintage On A Chain

Kirstin Ash is a jewelry designer who hails from New Zealand. Since launching her label in 2005, she has gone from selling at the Paddington markets in Sydney to supplying The Corner Shop and Orson & Blake. Each of her collections is truly unique, incorporating antique wallpapers, quirky animals and playful silhouettes.

I picked up one of her pieces at the Paddington markets in Sydney last year - it featured deep red rose-print wallpaper on a copper chain - and I just realized that now it would cost twice as much! Just a reminder of how good it feels to support a rising designer.

Maybe if you're nice I'll give you freebies of my designs once I'm famous. ;)

I Heart Sarah Singh

"I draw inspiration from people I see," says Sara Singh, who spends her time between Manhattan's Lower East Side and serene Stockholm. "I love cities, and it was always my dream to live in New York. It's such a cultural mix; I find inspiration at my doorstep."

This kind of reminds me of Sophia Coppola's Marie Antoinette, non?

Victoire de Castellane

I'd love an insanely ridiculous but totally fun cocktail ring like this...

If a little dreaming is dangerous, the cure for it is not to dream less but to dream more, to dream all the time.

- Marcel Proust
