orla!

I made it back from London and Scotland and only have one more trip to go before I'm home for good. (Or at least for the next two months.) I have so many things to show you and stories to tell you about my summer. Unfortunately, I'm already packing because I leave tomorrow on that one-last-trip. So, here is a little sneak peek of the good things to come...

This was my favorite orla kiely mug. I loved the patterns on many of the other mugs, but the shape of this one was right up my alley:

Ack! It was just so unbelievably hard to choose from among all of the lovely things at the orla kiely flagship store. As I was checking out I let out such a huge sigh of relief that the poor shop girl actually asked me if I was okay. Sad but true. Stay tuned for more stories and more orla -- next time I post I'll show you the bag and fabric I finally settled on!

p.s. I sure have missed you guys + I promise I will never leave you for so long again! ♥

I have been coveting an Orla bag for over a year, but I can't quite bring myself to commit to any particular pattern so I remain Orla-less. Glad you were more successful!

What a wonderful mug, lovel! Just recently discovered your blog, love it :)

[Amy]

Oops, that "lovely". I really should spellcheck ;)

Ooh, did I ruin the surprise by peeking? Surely you picked up that cup for me....

You did, didn't you? ;)

i so want an orla wallet and bag - i just love all things orla kiely - lucky you! :) and i think you made a great choice in this mug.

Isn't Orla Kiely just wonderful - I am sure I should be sick of that leaf motif by now but no, it is surely a classic!

Fabulous choice. I love the orangey-yellow stem print mugs and need to actually get one. Don't you just love the flagship store - I went there again last week but half of it was closed for remodelling. I still got to peer through the window though and see all the fabulous lamp shades. If you check out my blog you'll see I love her too!!
Great blog.

Such a great design, from that angle it almost looks like it could be a circular flower on top.
I'm kinda new to your blog too but I like it so much it's now on my list of regulars
Hope you had a great holiday :-)
