A great  piece of jewellery by London based Alex Monroe, with a vintage, heirloom quality that makes it irresistible. The Alex Monroe ‘Love’ ring . 22kt. Gold plated via net-a-porter.

Adorned headbands are present on the accessory  scene more and more urging us to channel our inner Isabella Blow (R.I.P.) I have yet to venture  in serious head wear territory but  this version by designer Anastazia Chatzca is so fun I had to share.

Based in Sweden, Mini market founded by the the sister trio of Sofie, Pernilla and Jennifer Elvestedt, designed a Spring /Summer 2010 collection inspired by the colors in an Aquarium. Using  a fun juxtaposition of colors like blues and corals, and shapes,  that attempt to recreate the texture of seashells; illustrated by the skirt above I really appreciate the ‘everyday’ wearability and versatility of this collection.
