Some Lovely, Pretty Things

How stunning is this dress from Jason Wu's Spring 2012 collection? And I love the lipstick too: it just looks incredible.

I don't know if you've heard of Lisa Swerling's Glass Cathedrals: they are beautiful wall sculptures which house tiny, intricate scenes. I first discovered them at Spitalfield Market in London quite a few years ago. Lisa has since relocated to America, and is constantly creating new, beautiful pieces. I don't own one yet, but I hope to one day! The scene below is entitled: In case of dullness, blow.

I've been re-watching season four of Gossip Girl, and staring longingly at pretty much every outfit involved! The two items I love the most though? The outfit Blair wore to the Pink Party, and the beautiful wall hanging in Serena's bedroom, created by Paul Villinski.

I spotted this in postcard form on a trip to the Tate Modern in London last year: I'm not sure what it is exactly that I love about it, but I do. Rosen, by Wolfgang Tillmans (1994).

And finally, I can't wait to make these gorgeous Confetti Cookies from The Baker Chick:

I Heart Hart of Dixie

I'm really enjoying the first season of Hart of Dixie so far. I find the quirky plot very entertaining, and I also love the music and of course the fashion! It sort of reminds me of Gilmore Girls, my all time favourite programme. And from Zoe Hart's modern city style to Lemon Breeeland's Southern belle outfits, there is some great fashion inspiration to be had!
What TV programmes do you get fashion inspiration from?

One of my favourite songs from the show: Little Miss by Sugarland.

My Favourite Ballgowns

I've been looking at lots of pictures of the beautiful gowns from the Met Gala this year and over the last few years today. One of my all time favourites is Emma Watson in Burberry in 2010.

This year, I loved Scarlett Johansson's Dolce and Gabbana number.

But my favourite ballgown is this Dolce and Gabbana from Spring 2009. This is what I would choose if I had a red carpet event to go to!

The shorter dress is also gorgeous.

And I love the dress from Valentino Resort 2011 which Dakota Fanning wore to the Met Gala that same year.
