Well hey there beloved readers, over the past couple of months I've been slowly nesting and gathering bits and pieces for the little bubba, but you know what? I've bought absolutely nada for moi and well, that's just not on!
Anyhoos, I'm mega excited since it's payday week! Whoopee! Capturing my imagination and my heart right now are bold geometric prints, well, anything wildly colourful and likely to brighten up my current ongoing all black - ninja style wardrobe.
I'm still bowled over by amazing printed creations by the likes of Peter Pilotto, Jil Sander, Marni, Matthew Williamson and digital prints by Felder Felder.

Of late, the image reflects exactly how I've been feeling once I walk through the door of my home... Totally cream-crackered. The 3-hour long return journey on public transport is rather treacherous especially with pelvic pain added to the equation... I honestly don't know how other women manage it! Anyhow, all is well but I'm afraid you'll have to excuse me on the blogging front, I might not be here as often as I'd like but I most certainly still take pleasure coming over to visit you guys.
It's my form of escapism... from reading baby/parenting info to freak-me-out stuff like on one of my pregnancy apps. I read that I can probably feel my little one inside scratching with their fingers inside the uterus, how CREEPY?!! So anyhoos, thank you for hanging around!

Oh, your daily journeys sound waaaaaaayyyy too long. Hope they are worth it. Must admit, with my deep love for prints I've only managed skirts, nothing head to toe or printed trousers (love them). I've tried DVF dresses before and felt totally out of my comfort zone. They just took over... :D

Oh, I love all of this wonderful inspiration. Yes, buy something special for yourself dear and get some resting time. The Kenzo collection is still one of my many favourites, even now. -xx Enjoy the rest of the week doll! /Madison
I love your picks for payday (which are such loveable days *batting eyelashes*) definitely agree on the bold patterns. they make such a chic statement. have a great rest of the week and happy self shopping!
I want that camera. How freaking cute! All of these things you picked out are adorable and fun and funky. :) We have very similar taste!
...and I hope your lil angel doesn't have long nails yet. Haha! ;)
Awesome print picks! I'm a total print lover so this post is right up my alley. That lamp is stunning! Thanks for dropping by! Missed you! I'm well enough - just waiting for winter to go away. Your 3 hour commute sounds dreadful! It's no wonder it leaves you knackered. I just hope you're seated for the duration. Anyway, taking care of yourself and little bao is the most important thing now so make sure you rest well. We'll still be here for you :)
I wish Stylist has made it Stateside but at least we can view it online.
Take care!

I am glad you are treating yourself to some shopping too.
The Kenzo prints won't ever look old to me no matter what, I think this season will be all kind of clash of prints all over the place.
That Camera is so cute and calling me name out lol.
Tak good care koukla and have a wonderful new Month!
That Ostwald Helgason dress is so awesome, and Miroslava is too cute!
Also: I just got a tingly feeling from reading that sentence about your baby scratching your uterus. Eeeeeeee!
Wonderful colours and prints, ahhhhhhhhh
Happy weekend, dear friend

I hope you are having a great weekend--it must be so hard to commute while you're preganant--I can't even imagine! Hopefully you will relax over the weekend. Love your picks--now I'm wanting a graphic tee too!

oh i adore that kenzo stripey dress situation! i am dying for prints, but really i want more photo realistic prints and then super classic prints done in bolder shapes.
and holy CRAP you're preggers!??! congrats times a million!
These are so wonderful...I love them!! I will take them all!! Poor lamb, get yourself some rest, I know it's hard when you can't take anything. I had the flu when I was about to give birth to my first and I was about to fall over. I was breathing in eucalyptus and all. Then the nurse tried to take it away from me, but I was having none of it, haha. I send you a BIG hug and lots of love, hope you get rested doll!! xoxoxo
Love your graphic picks Sandee. I don't know you do all the rushing around from one end of London to another with "little man" on board. But I sure do appreciate you doing it for our lunch on Friday ;-) xx
Ooooh yes, am loving these picks!! Those cigarette pants and the bold graphic wallpaper can make their way into my home quick smart.
Are you back in London now?? That sounds like a London commute. And hope all the reading's not too freaky...
Yes please! Graphic patterns and colour; so me!! I hope Spring will shine on you soon there in London:-). XX
i'm normally a pretty neutral girl, but this makes going bold every now and then look fun!
These graphic prints are so fun!
Yes to graphic prints, especially in accessories. :)
you began the article with mira duma. that was it, you had me stuck there for a couple of minutes staring. you didn't even have to support your statements. haha i love her style.
i also love the bold colorblocking pattern thing going on. so bright and spring-y
What?! I did NOT know that about baby scratching from inside. Yikes! Sounds like a horror movie...

Wait... are you trying to tell me you have a 3 hour commute? That is INSANE! I think I must have read that wrong. Hopefully you'll be feeling less tired once you get further into the 2nd trimester. (At least, I hear that's what happens.) In any case, nothing like some bright new clothes to pep you up!
Congrats! We both have a baby a brewin- bloggers + babies X 2;) I hadn't thought of finger nails scratching my insides but now, I can't get it out of my head!! Hope you are feeling well (first trimester?).
You tug at my fashion heart strings! These prints look gorgeous!
Girl I'm still buying more clothes for the princess than for me! I mean, mommy has to look good too right?
Hope everything is going well with your bun in the oven!
