Purple and white and I Spy Pink


Let's start the week with some silky, delicate flowers: a bouquet on my kitchen table... They're poetry incarnate.

They smell exquisite, and their colors echo those of the primroses on my window sill.

Also, today I'd like to introduce a new feature, I Spy. I love spotting cool styles and in I Spy posts I'll share some such sightings. We start with this really fun bag, its shocking pink hue (hello Elsa Schiaparelli) and clean gym-bag-like lines. I'm no fan of so-called it-bags or handbags, but this one won my vote.

I Spy A Pink Bag - Monday afternoon, rue des Archives (Le Marais, Paris)

I love flowers. I walk down Las Ramblas here in barcelona now in the spring and it just kills me that I am so poor I can't get some beautiful live colours to chic up my flat!

Iñaki - you may not have flowers but you have the SEA! That's priceless!

World in a pan - I know, pink is your favorite color. The bag would match your phone...
