I have no words for how amazing this wool cardigan is, and how much I want it. Well, almost no words…how amazing is this cardigan???

New at lambs Ear Shoes, Berlin clothing line ANNTIAN handpaints and handprints all the graphics, which “makes every piece unique and abnormal” (quote from Angie from Lamb’s Ear). I love how she describes the pieces as “abnormal” – that’s really the only way to describe them, and it’s definitely not a bad thing…
Check out the other pieces as well, I love the striped tights (they look more like leggings to me) and “warped” shirt:
There’s been a lot of hype around necklush’s fabulous necklace/scarf creations lately, quite frankly, because they are AWESOME! That’s exactly what I said back in February when I first spotted these at Pixie Market and I couldn’t be happier that necklush is getting the attention they deserve. I really just need to get one of these and stop talking about it…
I would definitely get the magenta necklush (on the left), but there are so many colors to choose from…which one is your favorite? would you rock one of these?
makool loves you is my new favorite online boutique. Everything on the site is handpicked by Anisa, designer of the Makool line, to feature her own work, as well as the work of some of her favorite designers. makool loves you is a completely independent online boutique (my favorite kind) and most of the items are made from sustainable fabrics, like soy & bamboo, or made using recycled fabrics…take these knickers for example, which are cotton/soy & made from leftover bits from larger projects. SO freakin’ cute:

There’s also plenty of other loveliness on the site, including this cowl scarf and tunic/dress:
And, finally, here’s the deal: take 20% off your order of FULL-PRICED merchandise with code GC12 through the end of the year. Now is the time to support independent online retailers and local designers, and this is a great way to do it.
You can always count on iloveshop.com to have the newest and coolest designers. I first fell in love with their jewelry from poupette, but keep going back to check out their new arrivals from other cute-but-chic smaller designers.
This time, I’m in love with the Jalda hobo by Melissa Eva:

I’ve been more into somewhat structured bags lately, but I always love a good hobo. The color of this bag is gorgeous; totally neutral, and the crackled leather gives it tons of character. But honestly, what I love the most, is the heart-shaped patches on the straps:
