Frieda Maria {style pretty}

I love these whimsical photos of stylist duo Margo Maria Weijer and Frieda Mellema also known as Frieda Maria! I also love their list of things that they do and do not love:

Friedamaria loves: home-made, contraditions, dreams, granny stuff, eccentric, white – and powder tones with a spark of fluorine, sewing, painting, Dr. Marten shoes, steel wire, Alison Goldfrapp, wine, fairy tales, disorganised, nostalgia, Bjork, Sweden, dresses with short puffing sleeves, Lee Miller, melancholic, the forest, clients in the queue, bad bargains, sea air, comic heroes, minor flaws, fake fur,
Talking Heads, Rotterdam, fifties, e-mails…

Friedamaria does not love: perfection, fashionable, arrogance, beer, Bugatti EB 110, blah blah blah, dress codes, obvious prints like Jackson Pollock , George Bush, trendy, botox, the book was better
(than the film), rules, stiletto heals, fake, Lara Croft, overdose of whatever…” ~friedamaria.com

I love the spoons, I heart the photo transfers onto the delicate cloth(which is super easy to do by the way), and although I am not very fond of gelatin, I would love to prepare the colors below, just so I can admire their pretty colors!

Candy Cakes: Europe {gotta get there!}

Candy Cakes

Can we all take a moment of silence to give thanks to such pretty cupcakes that are carefully placed in pretty window vignettes and adorned with juicy colors like fuschia, orange, yellows, turquoise, and pinks. Oh my! If you are ever in Europe, near the Covent Garden Piazza, Fitzrovia London, or roaming Kingly Court off of Carnaby Street, then you must pop into the sweet shop of Candy Cakes! The decor is so lovely and the cupcakes, oh, why I have not had the pleasure of devouring one of these personally, I am more than positive that these sweet gems would be divine, and when you’re asked to create 300 cupcakes for Madonnas 5oth Birthday, then you know they must be tasty! Not only am I in love with their pretty cupcakes, but I think that their decor is great, especially the Covent Garden Piazza location with its jeweled greens, pinks, and whites, and the cute outside eating area!
