basically, this blog is just going to be me posting things that i like, or things that i want to buy eventually, so expect to see everything from houses to wallpaper, cars to jewellery, art to badges, like the one below...

this is by Erla María Árnadóttir

and even if it's kind of about death and eating animals and stuff

i still want to own it, it's so cute!

she's an artist and illustrator from Reykjavík, based in Brighton at the moment, i think.

she also provides the art for another thing that i'm currently wanting..

the latest album from Iceland's Ólafur Arnalds. 

even though i've already heard every last song on this album, i still want it more than any other album that's due out in the rest of this year.

it comes with a DVD, and seven illustrations that you can hang on your wall (by Erla, or  Jónas Valtýsson)

i'm not even sure what else to say about this album, just that it is perfection.

it's my winter soundtrack, which is pretty apt considering i'll be in the creator's home country for a while.

okay okay okay

also this

mainly because i used to own a kind of off-gold coloured version of it, with larger antlers, that i got at the market in Camden, but when i was moving to and from London in the summer, i lost it and haven't found it since.

it's the perfect kind of ring, i think, especially if you love how decorative antlers can look (and also, who doesn't love deer?)

hehe, well, that's my first post here done. 

i'll try and find some more outlandish stuff for tomorrow :)
