On my Radar

I'm sharing today, some things of late that have caught my eye :)

Yet another DIY project I want to try! I currently need a cute rug for my room and I also have a heap of old threadless shirts that need to find a good use :)

 Definitely need to always remind myself of the above :) And how cute is that ring, aptly named "the dark side".

I'm currently trying to work out the best set up for carrying my cameras for weddings and adventures.  One photographer I work with carries a super large camera bag and at the other studio all the photographers wear their camera's on them.  I never thought to do that but I'd love to give it a try and see if it works :) 

Cotton Carrier is currently doing a kickstarter campaign (with $40 off before it hits retail). It looks super secure and I like that you can clip it onto a normal backpack.  They're promo video gives you a good idea of how it works. How do you guys carry your cameras when out adventuring - any advice?

 Talking of cameras, I love that kate spade bag sooo much, good thing it's sold out though being Kate Spade and all :P 

That picture on the right is via the very cute blog Silversaga - I love everything about it from the Peter Pan collar to the pretty pink top and red nails :)

 At the start of the year Sanrio released an awesome new character called Kirimi-chan and yup that is a giant Salmon for it's head! *high five sanrio*.  Japanese quirkiness always gets my seal of approval!

 That picture above is a macro photo of a butterfly wing! Eep how amazing, you have to click on the link to see many more cute photos by Linden Gledhil.

Can you believe those matchsticks are cookies? So cute! They're by Japanese company Kanon who also do other very (sweet :P) cookies.

I love Connie's (a cute Melbourne Blogger) rad fashion - especially those tights and I super adore that piano staircase.  If we ever have a staircase (in a home that's not a rental) I'd love to piano-ify it!

and finally, stop whatever you're doing right now and do this!
I swear it works :)

    1. oops! I wonder (and I don't know if you're in this category or not) if my shirts would make for such a cute rug? Even though pink is my favourite colour my shirt choices seems to be quite neutral I think.

  7. How many awesome finds! oops and I totally stopped for Mary Poppins math song matching and it is awesome! the trick is to wait in the blanks or it would not sound the same :) what a wonderful style does Connie have, I love the watermelon clutch she is wearing on one of her latest post. Need to add more fruity elements to my wardrobe, that's for sure, but all seem to be gone on Asos; I'm too late I guess for the summer season, hahaha. The collar is the sweetest thing ever and that camera bag, oh! I hope there is a replica (please forgive me Kate Spade!) out there somewhere ;P --- almost forgot! yay for Sanrio (salmon head! too good)
