INSPIRATION || Leading lady style

Recently I've become quite obsessed with the style of leading ladies in adventure movies. It all started with a trip to the National Geographic store where CJ got me this gorgeous jacket. (Don't have a photo yet, and it's not on the site) It's dark blue, and it looks kind of rugged, yet well tailored and intellectual.

I suppose that's where it started... it looked intellectual. Just like what Betty Ross from 'The Hulk' (Liv Tyler's character) might wear to campus. Then I thought of Indiana Jones and now I'm building this inspiration board for intellectual leading lady style. :)

It's a work in progress, I've not done many inspiration boards, but I think this will be fun.

And I have to work on my leading lady style outfit!

OFFSIDE || Living Stones

A while back at the National Geographic store, I saw the cutest things ever! Pebble shaped cushions! They are so cute and they look very real! I was considering buying them but they cost way more than I would pay for a cushion. Nonetheless, it doesn't stop me from drooling over them. In the photo I'm carrying the small and medium sized ones. The small one is about 300 bucks!

They are called Living Stones and they are by this creative designer called Stephanie Marin (http://www.smarin.net/). I've screencapped some pictures off her site. It's amazing! I love the giant pebbles.

Doesn't it look fun? The ultimate mix of softness and strength.
Do check out her site, she has many other amazing home decor products, like living island and mobile shadows. Her work seems very oriented to nature elements, and clean and streamlined. Very inspirational!
