= Dog Week in Dalston With Boston Terrrier Chad

Chad was living with us for the last week.
On our last dogsitting day we were taking him out to our favorite neighbourhood coffee bar CAFE OTO.
He is the most chilled and easygoing dog I have ever seen.
While we were both really busy working on our own designs, he was just hanging out.
I had tough days this week and was struggeling for motivation,
but Dave and a few great comments got me back on track, working on my now London based avant-garde weddingdresses.
Now we were really considering getting a Boston Terrier, especially because Dave loved how chilled he was.
I am still voting for a high maintainance Chihuahua, mainly because in a crowded city like London, its easier to bring it everywhere we go.

= Saris, Coke and a romantic bollywood love story

Its 9am on a Sunday somewhere in zone 5 and we are walking like zombies through what could only be described as an industrial area looking for the reception to Hensa's engagement party. And were we in for a show!Through the sea of flamboyant outfits with vibrant colors stood 3 east londoners dressed in black and white. To say the least, we were the odd one's out here.With the front area decked out with photography equipment, and the back area lined up with plastic meal trays and coca-cola, we really felt like we were on the set for a new bollywood romance film set in India. As for Hensa, well she just looked amazing! Just check out the detail work on her hands and nails! In the end, we had lots of fun and although we would have done things a little differently it is always great to see family members all getting together for a great occasion.

= Sunday : Cleaningday!

OK, this might look ridiculously set up, and the first two images are obviously posed, but it was Liv's cleaning week and this is what she actually wore! A 50's style dress with new bright yellow gloves. Shes a bit This woman makes my days. If she had her heels on that would have simply topped it off!

Its almost like every part of her life is naturally styled. Its a real pleasure to just watch her.

=Work It Harder Make It Better-Do It Faster- Makes Us stronger More Than Ever Hour After Our Work Is Never Over !

Since last weekend we are both working nonstop, at home, all day and night.
I am happy that we are both into design.
With great music & superpower, we motivated, critisized and inspired each others work.

I finally started working at my BLUSHLESS dresses again, which feels so good.
I love my job and I love my/our new workspace.
This room really feels like home already.
Dave is my hero, he supports my work & my dream whereever possible!!!

= an urban orchard + jar obsession

 Our friend designed the lighting for this urban orchad project.
It was a temporary community garden that was part of the London Architecture Week.
There were so many cool little details, we liked the jar shelf, in the 2nd picture. Another idea how to use jars. The lids were screwed to the self bottoms,
such a cool storage idea. I would love to have that in the kitchen for herbs & other stuff.
I wrote about Daves love for jars on my blog, just last week.
I have a secret theory about man that like jars...it speaks for these guys, that's all I can say ; )

He now plans to build a jar chandalier like the one here.

Aprospros holiday:
I will get my dogfix soon,
because we will dogsit Boston Terrier CHAD in August while his owner and our loved neighbour lady & friend is on holiday: YAY!!!!!
