FAVOURITES FROM SSAW STORE

Last night I was browsing once again through Stuttgart based SSAW store, one of my favourite webshops, and theses pieces catched my eye: Henrik Vibskov Spitfire Shirt // Silent by Damir Donna Bredo Messenger Bag Stone // F-Troupe Tassel Boots // Carin Wester Oma Jacket Cream (I think I would team it with a simple light grey t-shirt (maybe with graphic print) to give it a little twist).

MOGENS LASSEN “ADVENTWREATH”

For all those of you who also are suffering from the omnipresent cheesy Christmas decoration, but somehow still feel the need to give your home a festive touch, the Kubus Candleholder designed by Danish designer Mogens Lassen in 1962, may be the perfect solution. Just keep it simple by adding four white candles or decorate it with some subtle Christmas ornaments and contrasting candles as shown at Lys Vintage, where you also have the great opportunity to buy the whole package – the Kubus in black or white including matching candles and decoration!

A HOME IN LUGANO

A composition of calm but yet cool simplicty that’s how I would (try to) describe the home of architect Francisco Dias in Lugano… It seems like you can almost feel the laid-back atmosphere emerging from the perfect mixture of grey and white, wooden floors, plain walls and selected pieces of furniture. Via AT Casa.

THE MARLENE

Marlene from spruced must be a very lucky girl not only because she is the girlfriend of brilliant designer James Castle, but also because he designed this gorgeous bag for her and named it – The Marlene. (Aww!) But girls, no need to be jealous, maybe we can’t have a boyfriend like James BUT we can have the bag! In gold or silver or another beautiful colour, handmade from Italian sheepskin or calf leather.
