Oh happy day

Happy weddings are contagious. They just leave you grinning. Seeing genuine, unbridled happiness is so refreshing.

This wedding is a stylish affair straight out of South Africa (which seems to be a trend at the moment) that has me ecstatic. So much yellow!

Also, a little tidbit, the church that the wedding took place in was designed by one grandfather while the other grandfather is now the leader of said church. Brilliance!

Hana Haley

Hana Haley aka Honeyuck is a film photographer from Portland, Oregon who has made the move and is now based in San Francisco, CA. Her work, both personal and fashion related, depict how powerful a medium analogue photography can be.

"Dreamy and sensual, drenched in colour and light, Hana Haley's stunning photographs look like film stills from some long forgotten art-house movie."

Kate Jones

The internet is filled with people I aspire to be. I just want to emulate everything they encompass as a person. Their style, personality etc etc. Imitation is the highest form of flattery and all that ya know.

Kate Jones, the latest feature on Backyard Bill, definitely goes into the category of humans-I-adore-and-am-slightly-jealous-of.

Kate Miss

Completely in love with the latest jewelry collection by Kate Miss of for me, for you.

All pieces are handmade and will look amazing with absolutely any outfit whatsoever. Also, each order comes with a collection mix cd and a notecard. Yes please. I want all of these for Christmas thank you.

Speaking of Christmas presents, I've started a bit of shopping and have managed to snag up a few things online after some extensive browsing. Here's to hoping they survive the South African Postal Service! Have you started any of your holiday shopping yet?

Hanna Kim

Work by Hanna Kim, a Korean artist whom I can't seem to find much about besides for the fact that she's seriously rad, I really want one of her paintings and that she's currently studying at the Maryland Institue College of Art. Elusive and talented.

My life is slowly gaining a semblance of normality. Exams are almost almost done (I write History tomorrow) and then after that it's holiday upon holiday. Eee!

Ginny and Jude

They are wearable art at its finest. 

Ginny and Jude is an Australian brand that creates their clothes with a nod to the past. They use a combination of new and old materials sourced from all over the globe to put together their envious apparel. All pictures featured here come straight from their etsy store and I think that's quite a feat in itself as you don't often find stores over on etsy that have such high quality, stylish images.

Alice Nightingale

I would like to frolic in the dessert with pineapples thank you very much and then when I get tired of sitting on the sand I could move to my flower-topped throne from which I could stare out over the land that is Fashion.

It's lookbooks like these that give me hope and also make me smile. Alice Nightingale's Summer 2013 collection, Sunday Girl, is all kinds of awesome. You should look at it and make yourself happy. Also, it's weekend. Yay.
