Paper doesn’t grow on trees you know.


We have finally found the solution to the age-old problem... too many books, not enough space. Simple, make a Christmas tree. LOVE this idea.



Wishing you all a very Happy Festive Season. Travel safe, hug your family, read a book and eat loads of chocolate.

Love, Pink Ink X

What does it mean to find the perfect dress?


Some might remember Angela Lansbury in the 1992 movie Mrs ‘Arris Goes to Paris, saving all her pennies and flying to Paris in search of the perfect Christian Dior dress. Why? Because it was a dream. It was special, meaningful and above all it was the appreciation of owning something so exquisite and beautiful.

Even if that special dress only gets warn once, the emotion of what it meant, how it made you feel and the memory it provokes will stay with you forever... The memory of a wedding, a graduation, Christmas with family or other special occasion. It becomes part of the celebration, captured in photographs and entwined in history... To look back on and think “gee I loved that dress”

But like all dress love stories it's so important to never have regrets. For years to come, you will always remember the dress you let go, the one that broke your heart and the one that mended it.

So our advice is, when you find a dress you love, grab it with both hands and say "you’re mine". Because loving a dress that loves you back is priceless.

I'm all ears..........

As Olympia Dukakis said in Steel Magnolias, “The only thing that separates us from the animals is our ability to accessorise!”


 

  



It was only a matter of time before the line got a little blurry.......

Great heights........


Who needs a stepladder when you have a pair of blue suede Pedro Garcia wedges or Ellery bright yellow leather and wood platform heels? Simply pop on and up you go........
Perfect for reaching the chocolate off the top shelf or dusting hard to reach places, or even just to get a different perspective on life........ The perfect lift-up.







Thanks P for the brilliant invention.

Inner animal......


We can’t help but have a little crush on this season’s leopard print trend. And why wouldn't we? It's perfect way to add a bit of growl and sophisticated grunge to your wardrobe, or, maybe even your home......
There is something about a leopard print that will always appeal. Perhaps it’s the touch of rock and roll it adds to your look. Or maybe it says in print “I’m brave.” .....Whatever the appeal, be brave and embrace it.
We have!

Art for my rent...

One morning visual artist Evangeline Cachinero woke up and was tired of the rut she was in and decided to make a change. She decided to live her life based on the pursuit of happiness. Something many of us dream about but very few have the courage to make the changes to make it happen.
The single mother quit her job as an advertising art director and decided to focus on making a career out of her art. With one goal in mind, she just wanted to pay her rent for an entire year. So she decided to post a blog and sell one of her paintings for the exact cost of her weekly rent ($360). It sold instantly. A few days later she developed her idea into a website, and so artformyrent.com was born.

Inspiring.............

Clutching at... clutches?


Spring is a time for change, birds are singing, flowers blooming and bags are....... smaller? That’s right, apparently a little trend (like the pun?) this Spring is the rebirth of the clutch bag.

There is something quite feminine about a lady carrying a clutch. But we know what you’re all thinking, where to put all the necessities that we carry around in our Mary Poppins bag of tricks?? Well The Examiner New York, suggests that tote carrying ladies hire a locker! Harsh.



Maybe less is more? Don’t let size fool you, just because there is less space doesn’t mean that the style punch will be less. Think embellishment, bright fabrics and amazing leathers.


So Mary Poppins put that big bag aside and embrace a more demure look.
