Ray Ban Aviators








































Despite my ever growing sunglasses collection, there's one style that I always turn to and that is the classic aviator. It's a style that has this inherent coolness factor that's unmatched by anything else on the market. When it comes to aviators no brand is more iconic and synonymous with the name than Ray Bans.

Since it's first debut back in 1936 (thank you Wikipedia) not much has changed over the years. The classic tear drop shape is still unaltered, the lens has the same slight convex shape to eliminate glare from all angles and the famous thin wire frames are still bendy enough for you to salvage them if (or when in my instance) your toddler decides to sit on your glasses.

There's so much to love right? But the true bee's knees is that these sunnies were once designed with only pragmatism in mind and have since turned into absolute style icons. Now 80 years later and we're all still wearing them like it's nobody's business.

Can't get enough of: Organic Argan Oil
























There are beauty products and then there are amazing life transforming elixirs. I cannot say enough good things about Josie Maran's 100% pure Argan Oil. For those of you who are unfamiliar, argan oil is a plant oil derived from the kernels of the argan tree native to Morocco. It has traditionally been used  as a treatment for skin diseases and for nourishing the skin and hair. They say this oil even has medicinal uses against rheumatism and the healing of burns. Don't you just love it when products multi-task?

Josie Maran's Argan oil is made cold pressed from 100% pure organic argan oil. Given the vast amount that I apply on a daily basis, it gives me great comfort in knowing there are no toxins, parabens or any other nasties present. In fact the ingredients list just states: 100% organic and natural argania spinosa kernal (argan) oil. How simple and brilliant. We all know that when it comes food products, the shorter the ingredients list the better, the same goes for skin care. The day I discovered this product was a turning point in life (and skin), kind of like that big leap when you first change your facebook status from single to 'in a relationship'. And the best thing is, you actually see immediate results!

Can't get enough of: Whimsical Hardware
























Dear Anthropologie, don't ever change, ever. I mean honestly, where else can I go for brass wall hooks in the shape of animal heads? Your carefully curated household objects leave me wanting to redecorate my home again and again. With Thanksgiving fast approaching, these harvest themed bunny heads seem very appropriate. Right now they're housing pieces of fine jewelry but I bet they would look really good mounted on my front door with a fall inspired wreath dangling off it. Wait, forget what I first said... slashing your prices in half would be super duper nice, but apart from that don't ever change.
Get your bunny heads here.

Can't get enough of: Strappy Cap Toe Pumps


Inspired by Garance Dore's 'I Die' series, I thought I'd start featuring my own collection of lovely little things that make life just that much more wonderful.

To kick off this series, say hello to my new cap toe babies. While cap toes pumps are nothing new, it was the double ankle strap detail on this pair that caught my eye. These are made in Italy by Lucchesi, I scooped them up from a little boutique here in Melbourne, Australia. Much searching online has failed to yield anymore insight behind this brand or it's full product line. All I know is, they make fabulous shoes and I want them all!
