OSCARS 2011 BEST DRESSED

And the Winner is: MILA KUNIS. Well for me anyway..... she can do no wrong.
Last night I thought she was by far the best dressed wearing a gown by Elie Saab. All the other actresses looked far too over styled and she just always looks so relaxed and effortless. I love her!! However, I think I preferred her look at the recent SAG awards (below, wearing Alexander McQueen).....stunning! I want her stylist!

BAR DEL FICO

My new favourite bar. Finally, someone in Rome has realised that cool can be understated and not in your face! Great graphics, great interiors, cheap food and drink, old men playing chess outside....they take it very seriously. After nearly two years of living in Rome, I'd say this was the first bar that has actually excited me.

TEATOWEL LOVE

My birthday is coming up next month, and I've been heavily hinting for a screen printing set so I can expand my kid SPARROW range to include 'soft furnishings'.....tea towels, cushions, bags etc. With that in mind, I've become obsessed with teatowels, much to the annoyance of my boyfriend (he had to dissuade me from buying one for 17 euros the other day!)
Here are some teatowels by Skinny Laminx I would love to own!
