Pretty florals..

Some super pretty floral print dresses that have caught my eye:

1: KAREN MILLEN  2: TED BAKER  3: PAUL SMITH  4: FRENCH CONNECTION

Marimekko..

Visiting a Marimekko store is always a treat, but in Copenhagen as elsewhere, it also made me want to weep at the prices of the beautiful items. I've been a big fan of Marimekko's fabric designs for years and I particularly love the bags and accessories. You can see more from the current spring 2013 range here.

Looking forward to Copenhagen..

I've been a little quiet on the blog for a few days - the day job has been hectic and the house renovations have hit a critical point!

But this week I head for a little break to Copenhagen. I'm looking forward to all the design deliciousness to be found in the Danish city.. one store I hope to visit is Bungalow for the fab prints on textiles and paper goods. Check out Bungalow's website here.

Bantie..

Today I discovered the lovely pattern work of Bantie, a Swedish design company. Very much up my street - find out more on their website here.

IKEA fabrics..

IKEA

I've seen some lovely fabric designs on the IKEA website recently - I particularly like this selection with delicate line drawn leaves, birds and cabbages! Makes me want to get drawing again...
