Meet The Muggies

I recently launched a jewellery collection, The Muggies, inspired by my blog where I share my craze for fashion, obscure little market haunts, vintage finds, mini breaks and love for music and food.

It’s on these adventures where I fill up my treasure trove with vintage jewellery pieces, broken bags, offcuts of lace, odd pairs of earings, sheets of old buttons basically anything you can imagine.

The Muggies were born due to overflowing drawers of treasures, and all these odd pieces have been given a new lease on life.

 * For those of you in South Africa, they are currently available at smacs.co.za

Muggie Teaser

This past weekend we shot the Muggie collars from my Mizz Muggie jewellery range.

We're still busy editing, but thought I would post a blurry little teaser of what's to come!

 

watch this space for the range in the next few days!

Love's story

One of my favourite designers by far is Pamela Love. I love her jewellery and her oh so totally bohemian way of dressing. So it would come as no surprise that when she got married, she would design her own fabulous jewellery (duh!) and look like an absolute gypsy queen.

happy weekend #2

Yesterday was one of those days, where I just wanted to write one simple little post, and ended up getting completely distracted by other things. So having actually forgotten what the initial plan was I've decided to share all the cool stuff I found yesterday!

I came across Franz Falckenhaus the other day on flickr and as I am a little bit obsessed with mixed media collages and the stories they tell, I just had to share him with you.

Not only is Mr. Kate's jewellery just totally fun but I really also like this shoot done for the lookbook of her  latest collection Days of Ore.

The Mulleavy sisters are just so super creative and amazingly talented. This month they curated A MAGAZINE CURATED BY RODARTE, in which they used another super talented youngster, Elle Fanning, in Rodarte SS12 shot by Bill Owens.

There's also Kirsten Dunst, showcasing Rodarte AW11, shot by New York photographer David Armstrong. I just love the whole dreamy feeling you get when looking at this shoot.

Tavi Gevinson Closet Interview for Stylelikeu.com from StyleLikeU on Vimeo.

It's so hard to believe that this girl is 15. This is part of a shoot she did for the site Style like u. This is another great site which showcases the freedom of expression through personal style.

The idea behind ten songs that saved your life is to ask artists, musicians, writers, designers about the ten songs that saved their lives. Thought it only appropriate to share the play list of the Mulleavy sisters.

And to all my friends in Paris, tonight is the launch of L'annuel, a 136-page printed magazine, the pluridisciplinary companion to the Sound Pellegrino Festival 2012. It is described as "Us and our friends, trying to predict the near future in architecture, cinema, politics, music, communication, health and many others fields, how to adapt —and sometimes being really silly at it"

Have a fantastic easter!
