Fantasy Closet {How Do You Do Mary Katrantzou?}

Mary Katrantzou had me at her mind-blowing prints. Her design aesthetic is so strong yet it appeals to a small fashion fry like me who happens to be a mother of a toddler and really has no business going to fancy occasions and wear such. 

Hence, my fantasy closet. Now, how do you do Mary Katrantzou? If you know me well, I'd wear it with my trusty white crisp button-down. Add some sparklies, a boxy clutch, and some classic platform pumps. I'll probably throw in some orange nail polish too. And now, where to?

The Elements:

1. Mary Katrantzou Silk Satin Peplum Skirt
2. Paul Smith Oversized White Shirt
3. Lanvin Dora Lizard Clutch
4. Miu Miu Suede Peep Toe Pumps
5. Aamaya by Priyanka Drop Earrings
6. Imogen Belfield Cubes of Gold Ring

Mischmash Recommends {Mulberry & Child}

If you ever find yourself in the laid back city of Bacolod, make sure to drop by Mulberry & Child especially if you, yourself have a child. Mine was in high spirits when we visited the shop trying on cute dresses and animal masks. 

This concept store for all things kids, is a first of its kind in Bacolod. Their collection of dresses are so pretty and well made. They also carry books, Ipanema Kids, soft plush toys, and a cologne line- all for kids! 

It's always nice to go to a store that is solely for the little people in our lives and is not just an after thought.

Fantasy Interiors {If Mischmash was a... Part Deux}

With my reliable point & shoot still recuperating after a great fall, I'd have to skip the usual tidbits post today. There are no photos to share even if we did manage to make the whole weekend enterprise a fun and albeit leisurely one. Let's just say I did go past halfway the book I've been reading since, umm.. forever while Le Misch and her dad kick ball on a windy Saturday morning.

To make up for weekend tidbits' absence, I'm sharing with you part deux of my interiors of fancy in my perennial favorite hues. If you missed the first run, find it here.

If Mischmash was a lamp...

If Mischmash was a children's bedroom...

If Mischmash was a day bed...

If Mischmash was a chair or an ottoman...

If Mischmash was a vignette...

Aqua and orange, whichever way presented is good by me. It's the kind of pairing that gives me the ooohs and ahhhs especially in quirky interiors like these. 

And something tells me this is not gonna be the last round.
