Friday I’m in LOVE – ART, ZARA, STARLETS, AVOCADO, GOATSMILK NYC & WATERLOO
1 ART I’m looking for a spare wall so I can fill it with Kari Herer’s beautiful photographs, that combine whimiscal sketches and full blooms. Start collecting here.
2. Fashion A new season means a wardrobe overhaul and restock of good transeasonal basics. Zara‘s new collection has just dropped and has it covered. Just try and resist…
3. FLASHBACKS Vanity Fair has always had the knack for spotting the big next thing. Check out this gallery for some of their best calls. Here are some of mine…
4. QUICK LUNCH – The ideal lunch for days when you are working from home, this avocado bowl with citrus herb white bean salad (via dashandbella) is easy, low-fat and packs a major flavour punch.
