Charlotte Gainsbourg

Ethereal French beauty Charlotte Gainsbourg was recently interviewed by Jessica Hundley for one of my favourite zines, Another. It's a great interview, but it was the photography by Melodie McDaniel that blew me away. Below are some of the photos featured in the article.

Mother's Day gift guides

Monday, May 3, 2010


For all you readers who have not yet planned your Mother's Day presents, here are a few ideas from D&M - traditional ideas that we have refreshed a bit for the stylish mum in your life.

A Cookbook.  
Cookbooks can generally be a very boring gift idea but Jennifer Joyce's Meals in Heels is the perfect gift for a stylish mum.  Then just add to it a stunning pair of heels to host her next party in and hey presto! Mother's Day is sorted.



An Hermes Scarf
The gift that keeps on giving...that is, it becomes an heirloom to be passed on to loving daughters and grand daughters later in life

Flowers
Another boring option that can be freshened up if you go for something like a beautifully potted phalaenopsis orchid that will last longer than your regular bunch of tulips 


Happy Mother's Day!

P.S. The author of Meals in Heels, Jennifer Joyce also has a super cute blog.  Go to http://mealsinheels.wordpress.com/ for more

Last week, in my non-blogging life (yes I do have a life that exists outside of technology), I organised an event for one of our clients.  Now I know I'm going to sound conceited when I say this, but...it was flawless and amazing in every way possible.
  
I am slightly obsessed with our florist and the table in the Private Dining Room at Astral looked divine so I thought I would share some pics with you.  Meanwhile, Anneliese Seubert is just as flawless in real life as she is in the many pictures of her in Vogue.

Sorry we have been gone so long.  We missed you guys.
