New favorite tumblr from Erie Basin. Perhaps I’m getting older but the diamonds are looking quite fine.

This site really makes me want to wear more delicate jewels. Chunky rings your days are numbered!

I’m so excited to find out that a trip to Paris I am taking for work coincides with the YSL retrospective at the Le Petit Palais!

The exhibition will cover Yves Saint Laurent’s entire career: from his beginnings at Dior’s atelier (just around the corner from the museum) to his Le Smoking, his designs for many theatrical productions and of course for his great muse Catherine Deneuve.

I think I better book my ticket now.

These girls have been on my desktop for months now and I can’t remember where they are from. Don’t they just pour into their jeans?? Sexy!

Oh oh oh! I remember a time when Clergerie was tip-top of my shoe list. I see it again. With stripes.

Not Conran, but Moshe Safdie.

Moisturise more.

And post more regularly.

2009 was a strange year of highs and lows, and I gather from facebook and my google reader that there are many many people out there very glad to put it behind them. I wonder what 2010 will hold. I hope to make headway with personal projects, and not get so lost in work. Make the moments count. Even the dread commute.

I hope my new bike will set the momentum for 2010.
