Here are my latest finds and news from fashion, style, film, design and beautiful living.

tim-walker-acquascutum-ad campaign fw2009

As February unfolds, I am getting excited about the arrival of spring that doesn’t feel so far away anymore. Among other little joys, like catching up on my sleep, watching the NYFW collections and maybe go see a movie at the cinema (Lincoln has finally arrived) this weekend, I am also planning to bring home a huge bunch of snowdrops from the flower shop. Isn’t this older Aquascutum ad campaign photographed by Tim Walker beautiful? I’m counting the days until when I’ll be able to wear my trench coats again.

    The ad campaign is just lovely and I so enjoyed the interview with Lee Radziwill. I wouldn’t mind sitting next to her at a dinner party!

    Hi Ada! I’m so glad that we’re this far into winter and you’re right, maybe spring isn’t that far off after all! Thanks for the great links … ooh, the french bistro kitchen! Hope all is well at your end of the world, I’ve been insanely busy. Can’t really even believe it’s February! Have a great weekend, sweet. xo ~S

    Oh those illustrations of Michelle Dockery by David Downton are exquisite!! I love Tim Walker editorials – and this one is fantastic. I’ll have to read the Lee Radziwill conversation later (sounds intriguing!). PS: I just watched the series premiere of Downton tonight and just love watching ‘Lady Mary’ – she is stunning (albeit thin!) 🙂 Hope you’re having a great weekend Ada x
