A little something: Tina Lilienthal's 'Little Rogues'

I'm really quite surprised that I've never written about Tina Lilienthal's jewellery here before, having been a fan for sometime... Her jewellery is a cute mix of tiny skull and rabbit pendants, with some beetles, strawberries and cherries thrown in for good kitsch measure. Lots of colour makes Tina's work really eye-catching, and her silk thread necklaces are a must-have for their £20 or so price tag...


Her gorgeous Little Rogues are a new collection, taking her classic Little Skulls as their base, and adding some personality with moustaches (very Salvador Dali), arrows, antlers and tropical flowers. Love, love, love. What's more, Tina has now added rose gold plating to her collections, which gives an even better meaning to her 'dead cute' tag line. Rose gold is so lovely and gives everything that girly blush - here its juxtaposition with the skulls and horror (awww) of her pieces is what makes it. And I love the little tropical-looking flowers too - just in time for summer. Better go and find that Hawaiian shirt of mine...

Sun is shining with LauraLaura

Blue skies! London has had some glorious weather these past weeks; as I walked to the tube station this morning the tulips were towering high, heads of red, pink, yellow and orange. A little bit of something tropical (and Dutch) had hit Bethnal Green, and made me feel pretty drab in my black jeans and oversized shirt. Still, LauraLaura's bangles are the perfect antidote to feeling dull; I've featured her jewellery before on Like Gold Dust, and feel 'tis definitely the season again!

Ps. Check out Laura's knitwear too... there's some pieces en Francais, which I am rather in love with!
