Really easy chair

Saw this over at PSFK, and I love it. A part of me really wants to believe that this will be comfortable and perfect to take to the beach, however I’m a bit sceptical as to how strong and water resistant it is. still awesome though

Nice laptop stand

Beauty in Buenos

This might have something to do with the fact that my boyfriend and I are going to Buenos Aires in June (yes!), but non the less this is a stunning site and I thought it fit to share with my friends.

On the Corner is a site run by what I can only assume is a local who loves fashion and photography. Unfortunately I do not understand Spanish (although I am working on it) and so I am not able to read more about the person behind the blog. However, this person clearly has a awesome style and although similar to Sartorialist, it has a unique South American style.

Enjoy! (I’m sure up until June, and for a while thereafter, my blog will be filled with all things pretty from Buenos Aires)

Pretty streets

Think I’ve just officially found my favourite street artist/ photographer: Katie Sokoler. She’s a freelance artist from Brooklyn and has been doing the most amazing things around New York. I’ve attached some pictures of one of her latest projects. She decided to put up paper eyes around the streets of New York, saying: “It’s cute to look at an object and to see it looking back at me!”

To view more of her amazing work click here. You won’t be disappointed. She also did an incredible speech bubble project and take photos for the well-know improve everywhere movement.

Would love to see her stuff in real life!

Die mooiste tee koppies

I grew up drinking tea every single day, and although I have now grown out of that habit a bit I still enjoy a cup of tea every once in a while. I love the culture of drinking tea and stumbled upon this over at Trend Hunter.

I would do anything to get my hands on the heart shaped ones. Having pretty tea cups make the tea drinking experience so much more worth while.
