Three girls, a frenchie and an apple

I've always wanted to customise a set of babushka dolls. After many hours of sketching, erasing and painting. I came up with this...a friends picnic scene with my all-time favourite pooch. I hope you like it.

Miss Rabbit

Miss Rabbit is never late. Armed with a multifunction clock bag she is always on time and well accessorized. Today she is sporting her latest purchase, Karen Walker X Ray Vision sunglasses.

Garden party with peacock feathers and a clam shell purse

Enid is on her way to Barnsdall Art Park for a party with her friends. They are celebrating the birthday of Jill Thompson, an American comic book writer and illustrator.

The Twenties

Louise's mother loved watching silent films and named her after Louise Brooks - actress, fashion icon and dancer. When Louise turned twenty-one her mother bought her a faux fox stole and made her a Mint Julep

Little Miss Sad Face

Allie is on her way to Fauchon. She is having some friends over for morning tea and knows it would not be complete without some fresh croissants and raspberry jam.

Picnic for one

...sometimes it feels a little lonely living in LA

Background much?

Tired from walking her dog, Kira (named after the gelfing in The Dark Crystal) stands next to the phone booth across the road from the park to daydream about a few of her favourite things.

So I'm trying something new and I'm not sure if it's working...my little sister suggested backgrounds...a scary word for a lover of minimalism and negative space. Thoughts?

The end of a love story

Gone are the days of tweed and pearls for fashion house Chanel... at the ready-to-wear Spring/Summer 2010 show British pop star Lily Allen performed in an amazing dress made of sequins and feathers followed by a string of models wearing an assortment of frocks based around a reconstruction of the Hameau de la Reine, Marie Antoinette's play farm at Versailles.

Blast from the past

I found these three cheeky girls hidden under a stack of old magazines. Funny how you forget...

Off to the premier...

The other night Natalia put on her brand spanking new outfit and went to the screening of Wes Anderson's new film Fantastic Mr. Fox. She had a great time and thought the film was charming. She particularly liked the little red apples on Mrs Fox's dress and the cool calculator watch Mr Fox was wearing.

A little feature...

Thank you to the lovely people at Design For Mankind for featuring my preppy fox in their wonderful blog
