AMAZING!! This LEGO kitchen was designed by Paris-based Simon Pillard & Philippe Rosetti, the Munchausen LEGO Kitchen was created around an IKEA kitchen island, which over a week they cover with more than 20,000 LEGO pieces. What an amazing result, I don’t know about you but if I had 20,000 LEGO pieces and a whole load of patience then I’d love to make a LEGO creation!

Street Jewellery

Here’s something that made me smile, Street Jewellery. I think it should be in every city, I’ve seen street crocheting which is cute, but doesn’t seem very permanent. The urban jewellery however is tasteful, subtle, original and makes me very happy!

“Inside all of us is a Wild Thing” Maurice Sendak

This weekend a pal told me that Opening ceremony had some Where the Wild Things Are inspired clothing for sale as well as a collection of jewellery by Pamela Love, which I had to blog about. Below I have created a list of all things inspired by the amazing book by Maurice Sendak.

Where the Wild things are

Medicom Toy x Where The Wild Things Are available at Colette €65.00

Christian Joy, famously known as the designer behind the amazing Karen O from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs elaborate and imaginative stage costumes has created 5 monster suits in honor of Where the Wild Things Are , some of which are below and the others can be found at the Urban Outfitters blog.

Pamela Love’s jewellery collection available at Opening Ceremony . The ring below and the horn head band are definitely on my wish list! (These pieces remind me of Dominic Jones’ collection which I posted pictures of a while back)

“Jewellery takes people’s minds off your wrinkles.” Sonja Henie

I have always loved chunky jewellery and lately there has been an abundance of it on the catwalks, shops and online, so here are a few of my favorites as well as a few delicate pieces.

Dominic Jones’s seriously amazing AW09 collection. The 2 thorn knuckleduster would look simply divine on my hand! I think Dominic should accessories the ladies in the next installment of the Twilight series or Alice Dellal, Lizzy Jagger, Eliza Cummings and Emma Chitty should just take their place, they’d make incredible vampires. His collection was photographed by Matt Irwin.

Unfortunately I saved this to my computer a few years ago without taking note of who it’s by.

Ohhh, it’s all one big long wish list! I’d better watch Derren Brown’s show tonight to see if he lets on how to predict the lottery numbers.
