At Home

A wonderfully warm 100% wool throw woven in Argentina, from luxurious brand Alta Pampa. So expensive but so worth it - as I may be moving very soon to a freezing cold place, I really need this...
Bill's Bees is a tiny local Los Angeles company that offers, in addition to honey, a few all-natural natural skincare products such as this magical almond-scented balm.

Japanese Maple Tree


On this sunny autumn day, let's go for bold colors. My mum bought an exquisite red Japanese maple tree, which she carried home down the rue d'Auteuil. "Look, a tree that's gone for a walk!", a guy sitting at the café told his buddy - they weren't drunk, just playful.

On the sidewalk, I also found a couple of dead leaves, which had united to form a heart; this would have been perfect for Pia's My Heart Wanders project; a pity it comes too late!
