MOOK loves Holly Fulton...

The 'sixites' vibe has even reached London's runway showcasing new collections for Autumn/winter 2010/11... It was only her 4th showing at London Fashion Week, earlier this week, but Holly Fulton's collection was amongst one of the most talked about and definitely one of MOOK's favourites. Inspired by Art Deco and Sixties graphics, Fulton has created a 23 piece collection which is chic and fun!

Some Beautiful Words...


I am really getting into poetry at the moment... so I'm going to have a go at scribbling down some of my own prose... This poem by Rebecca Horn (above) is just so beautiful and inspiring: It makes my heart flutter...

Something Beautiful...


Robert Doisneau, 'Le Baiser de l'hotel de Ville' (Kiss by the Hotel de Ville)


I just quickly wanted to share something with you... This, one of the most famous photographs of all time, taken by one of the most famous photographers of all time, also happens to be one of my favourites...
Its a great form of 'escapism' when the world gets too hectic-I can loose myself in it for hours...

Look what I found in Paris...

Travelling treasures...

Whilst rummaging through the tatty treasures in the world renowned ‘Les Puces’ flea market, I discovered a little suitcase full of old holiday snaps, postcards and stamps. I thought it was fascinating to see and read someone else’s past stories but also quite sad to think their memories had been lost and ended up for sale.

Paris... Mon Amour!


'I love paris in the spring time

I love paris in the fall

I love paris in the summer when it sizzles

I love paris in the winter when it drizzles

I love paris every moment

Every moment of the year

I love paris, why oh why do I love paris

Because my love is here...'
