ADVENT CALENDAR - DAY 14

Olympia Le-Tan's latest Dizzie bag... "Good things to eat". YUM.
My favourite Dizzie bag is still this one though, Love the colours! But heck, ALL Olympia Le-Tan bags are super cool. I mean, she even has Pictures from milk carton bags!


Pictures from Olympia Le-Tan

Tune of the day: not a tune, but an entire short film! (No worries, it's only 6 minutes long). This is "Mourir auprès de toi" (To die by your side), a collaboration between Olympia Le-Tan and genius Spike Jonze (easily one of my favourite directors).

OLYMPIA

Every once in a while it's time to update you on some of my favourites. Today, that'll be Olympia Le-Tan.

There's a reason why her tumblr is one of my favourites: it's a collection of her awesome works, drawings and pictures of her family, her cat Fritz, friends of her (people watching!) etc. etc. In short: Good stuff!










Take a look at her printemps-été 2011 collection of clutches over on Vogue.fr!

DON'T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER

These books aren't for reading though. Olympia Le-Tan makes these amazing minaudières (or clutches) based on first edition book covers. The collection consists of 21 different covers, all handmade and limited to 16 pieces. The base is canvas, covered with felt appliqué & embroidery. And on the inside? A nice surprise: Liberty print.





My personal favourite? The special edition for Purple Magazine, Johnny Purple.



Get them while you can at Colette (the special edition for purple magazine is available through their website) but beware, they don't come cheap.
