Just a Minute in...September

Watching... How I Met Your Mother - You know I just figured out the relevance of the title...I know, I'm a bit slow!
Eating... TIM TAMS! My hubby and I just polished off a pack :) Yum yum! (If you don't know what they are, just Google it!)
Reading... 'If you have to cry, go outside' by Kelly Cutrone - It's a bit all over the place, (not sure how I felt about the whole goddess chapter), but I'm enjoying it!
Listening... Chiddy Bang! My new hiphop love...
Wanting... For the Northern Hemisphere: A camel cape, a big knit sweater and a new pair of black comfy flats. For the Southern Hemisphere: a beautiful Zimmermann playsuit and bikini's pictured above (Just released from their Summer Campaign 2010/11).
Excited about... a) Leaving for our European adventure in 10 days and b) Finally finishing French classes on Thursday!

Bono + wife Ali + LV

Despite some criticisms, I love this collaboration between Bono and wife, Ali Hewson 's ethical clothing label, Edun, and Louis Vuitton. It is suppose to bring 'international exposure' to Edun's mission to eradicate poverty through sustainable enterprise in Africa.

Photographed by the remarkable Annie Leibovitz, the campaign continues LV's popular travel themed ads into Africa with the tag line, "Every journey begins in Africa" which is also etched onto the special edition Keepall style embossed in monogram canvas, and with a special charm hanging off of it. Proceeds from sales of the bag will go to TechnoServe and the Cotton Initiative.

I love a good cause, especially when a luxury brand is involved. But I often wonder, does the fact that the profits made on the bag go to charity, drive sales further or hinder it? There's a question to ponder...




I've realised I really love blog titles with equations lately! Funny thing is, I hate maths!

London + Ashish + French

I received my regular Topshop update email in my inbox today and what caught my eye was the t-shirt and long sleeved goodies labelled in French by Ashish. Why?

Firstly, well as you all know I'm learning French.
Secondly, we have a friend that is living in London and his name is Ashish.

So it's all quite fitting that now I want one of these cotton tees. Sometimes I just can't help myself! My eye is on the 'Bon Appetit'!

The Little Tackers

My husband and I recently babysat my bosses kids; a little practice for the future you may say? Haha, but it's very exciting (and fitting) that one of my favourite Australian stores has just launched it's kids line at WitcheryKids.

But let me divert your attention to the lovable Parisienne luxury brand, Chloé, and it's trés joli kids Fall/Winter 2010-11 line that has me totally swooning...
