treasure hunting for Enid Collins

Look what i found today!

love love love!

taking bunny for a walk.

well thats not something you see everyday!
of course only seen in japan.

I think i really do have a scarf addiction, what do you think?

treasure hunting today in vintage shops, tokyo, call me excessive but how can i just choose one! maybe im greedy? i bought 35 designer silk/wool scarves, chanel, dior, YSL, celine, fendi and more!
my scarf collection is probably at 5000 now! they just make me happy, and ive never found any 2 the same in all my years of collecting them.

sweet tooth

cutie little high tea cafe i came across today in singapore, the whole cafe was decorated with angel ornaments, i had Queens tea and a decorated cupcake. so sweet. 

new addition to my family...

my new miumiu bag, limited addition. I can wear it many ways! the diamante chain can come off and be worn as a necklace, all straps come off to wear as a clutch, either one of the 2 straps, etc. my credit card felt this one! ouch!

Quote for today

"I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles." 
— Audrey Hepburn

An original Enid Collins vintage bag, found in a little vintage boutique
in Harajuku, Tokyo. So special, in great condition, got my heart racing and what 
a beautiful design, so nice in black and gold, ive never seen one in these colours. looks so classy.

I could eat this every morning, if it was only zero calories!

Idea for vintage fabrics

Great idea! how sweet are these cushions?
I can imagine all different other shapes with different fabrics and colours.
Made also into moroccan poofs would be good aswell.

Amazing vanilla earl grey tea, ice cream served at 
Shangri-la hotel. Served in a glass bowl with a rose petal. So pretty xxx

Which women can say no to Hermes....

love hermes! I have a small collection of vintage hermes 
scarves. I heard that each scarf takes 2 years to complete from designing 
and production to finishing product. Amazing, no wonder the prices are so high.
I can really appreciate beautiful pieces like silk scarves. They are beautiful 
pieces of art.

A Float, this was with root beer and vanilla ice cream, ahhhhh the memories
