A blustery day
Singer Sargent at his most talented catching a blustery day aboard a yacht – it makes me think that these women who are trying so hard to be elegant are probably being rainlashed somewhere off the coast of scotland.

Edinburgh in bloom
All photos August 2018.
Celestial objects
Celestial objects is both an interiors shot and a tranquil Instagram feed. I’m intrigued by this art installation they posted recently; these baskets must be huge. Part of me wonders if it looks better in an image (ie the photograph allows you to appreciate the relationship between the spaces and also the delicate plasterwork) than in real life, but I’d still like to see it to tell.

Barbara Hepworth again
Yves goes to Russia
Yves Saint Laurent’s Russian collection from 1976 is so dreamy.
Tally ho
Love the masculine/feminine play of this Edward Steichen shot from 1927. This was the equivalent of a sportswear article back in the day…
Martina Mondadori
Still loving these colours, patterns, mixes from the Evening Standard feature of Martina Mondadori recently.
Print it, hang it
I’ve banged on enough times here before about how easy it is to have things on the walls of your house – postcards, photocopies, bits of music – but I really love how House and Garden UK is now getting on the bandwagon with downloadable, printable artwork. This set is quirky and understated, although I also loooooove the wallpaper.
Hotel ritz, Lisbon
What a staircase! Mind you, the rest isn’t bad…

A petal unfolds
Love, love, love the paper flowers made by @apetalunfolds. Even more beautiful than these.
