Clothes to snare a millionaire.

Until yesterday I had forgotten how much I love Wheels and Doll Baby. I love the glamour and the pin-up-esque look. I think I need a ballet skirt... Maybe even one in each colour.

Daphne.

I think I must be living under a rock, because until Lella showed me the lovely short film 'Daphne Guinness: Undressed' on Nowness, I had no idea of how beautiful, quirky, creative and elegant she is. Everything about her is interesting, even her name. Daphne. Daphh-nee. So soft and pretty. I think I need to channel a little Daphne Guinness in my life. Maybe I could sell my house and buy one couture piece?

January.

I have just started watching the first season of Mad Men. I love the fashion, the style and January Jones. So beautiful.

AllSaints Spitalfields.

I love this collection from AllSaints. Makes me lust for cold weather in the 38 degree heat.

Oliver Peoples 2011 Collection.

Devendra Banhart and Rebecca Schwartz for Oliver Peoples...Yowza. Can't speak. So fine. In love.

Me...Grow Up? Never.

I want this tee from Mini and Maximus so bad. Do you think they'll have it in my size? Chances are...not good.

Jack Spade.

You all should have your Christmas shopping done by now, but if not, check out Jack Spade! So lovely and something for everyone. My favourite gift guide is the "Gift like a drunken sailor". Brilliant. Happy gifting!

Christmas gift ideas: Ken Diamond

I love Ken Diamond leather goods. Hand crafted by a guy with a beard in Canada - it's like a bell went off and was like "BRRRINNNNNNGGG!!! LELLA! Cute bearded guy hand crafting beautiful items!" and I was sold. So I decided to make a little selection of my favourite Ken Diamond products for you all to drool over and add to your Christmas lists. Check out all of the range here.

Schemers.

Ummmm Hi, my name's Lella, yours must be Unicorn? I don't know who this magical creature is but I'm in whoa. Grand Scheme lookbook. Yes.Please.Thank.You.

My favourite game.

There are those who can leave love or take it
Love to them is just what they make it
I wish that I were the same
But love is my favourite game

I fall in love too easily
I fall in love too fast
I fall in love too terribly hard
For love to ever last

My heart should be well-schooled
'Cause I've been fooled in the past
And still I fall in love too easily
I fall in love too fast

Oh that fringe.

So foolish. I am actually chuckling as I write this but...I totally have a girl crush on the Need Supply model. Is it the tattoos? The fringe? Who can be sure.

Dazzling.

Emma Watson. Dazzling as always.

The Row.

I love the simplicity of The Row's runway show. I love the flowers, the fabrics, the floorboards and the colours.

I want a fringe.

Anooke's ultra short, ultra cute, Rockabilly fringe has inspired me. I don't think I can pull of something as dramatic as Anooke, but I think it's time to go back to my school days – fringe style.

Roger Ouk.

I was watching TV on Sunday night and happened to flick it onto the ABC's Art Nation – My Secret Art Life. It was about this awesome guy Roger Ouk, a lawyer by day, and a men's tie designer by night. The ties are nice, but it was Roger that caught my attention. He's just so cool. He's a snappy dresser (as Lella would say), and an inspiration.

You can take a look at Roger's website Thyvane here (his online shop is coming soon), but to appreciate him in all his glory be sure to check out his interview on Art Nation.

Sporty-chic.

I love this sporty-glam look. It kind of looks effortless, even though there's sequins.

Whimsical.

Purple.

I was reading one of my favourite blogs, Dress Design Decor, and fell in love with these photos by Corrie Bond. The purple is so striking and lovely. Here is what Christian Dior's 'The Little Dictionary of Fashion' says about purple (I'm not sure I entirely agree): Purple – King of colours; but it has to be used with great care because it is not young looking. And it is not very gay. But if you are young enough you may wear a purple coat in wool or a purple velvet dress and look wonderful in it. Again, purple is a colour that needs a good complexion. And usually, I think, it looks best on people who are very dark or fair. But it is full of dangers – and not very convenient because you may easily get tired of it.

Love: Ban.Do

I'm such a beigeist. I love pale creamy colours, and I'm absolutely loving these gorgeous wedding Ban.Do's. Check out more Ban.Do love here.
