It’s not my usual style, but I keep coming back to stare at this dress. It’s technically a spring dress, but wouldn’t it look just as great with black tights and boots?

As you may or may not be aware, my boyfriend, James, has spent the last three weeks in China for work. Since I knew he’d be dealing with temperatures of -30°C, I jumped at the chance of finally knitting him something warm to wear.
Turn A Square by Jared Flood knit in MadelineTosh Vintage in Graphite {more}
It might not be the most exciting thing I’ve ever knit, but then man-knitting rarely is. And the result is exactly what he wanted, which is the most important thing. The MadTosh was beautiful to work with, and Jared’s pattern is such a great basic hat pattern, even without the stripes. I love the way the neat decreases form a square at the crown.

If you haven’t come across 3191 Miles Apart before, you’re in for a treat. MAV and Stephanie write weekly about their thoughts and inspirations. The site is not quite a blog and not quite a magazine. They don’t allow comments, which is very unusual in our interactive web 2.0-obsessed society, but I love taking a break from the constant flow of instant information to see what they’ve come up with. The photographs are always gorgeous and the articles are thoughtfully written. Highly recommended!

I picked up the latest issue of Real Living today, and I’m totally crushing on this beautiful bed linen from Castle & Things. The designs are hand-printed on the highest quality cotton sheets. I love mismatched, patterned sheets, and the orange and aqua colour scheme would match our bedroom perfectly.
