Currently, I'm loving:
1. Black Chandeliers: They're so sophisticated and simple, unlike those giant flashy chandeliers that are dripping with crystals. Those chandeliers should be left strictly for castles and ballrooms. But the black chandeliers, they're modern, pretty, and you can hang them in a room without making yourself seem like someone who enjoys flashing your money.
2. The Bravery: They're a New York Rock/Indie band, whose songs are frequently featured on the soundtrack of Gossip Girl. Their songs will make you wish you were in the privacy of your room where you can whip up that air guitar and start bellowing out their lyrics. Take one of their songs, Bad Sun for example:
I don't know what's wrong with us
They just made us this way
There's a hole in you and me
That pulls us together
And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me we grew, under a bad sun
3. Brown leather jackets: or synthetic leather if you're a cow-lover. I'd love love love to get my filthy little hands on one of these jackets. They add that extra vintage-y boho-chic look to any outfit, and can be worn all year round. Only problem: it costs $699 (from Kookai). I've seen one for $60 in Supre, but like most of the rest of the clothes they sell, it looks cheap.
4. Funky staplers: Seriously, who's the guy (or woman) who invented staplers? We all need to give them a round of applause. I mean, who goes around thinking hmm, I should invent something that gives a satisfying *click* sound, all while shooting a piece of thin metal through pieces of paper, hence binding them together. And those staplers that are placed creatively in various plastic animals (like hippos) are just an added extra

5. Lily Cole: she looks like some life-sized doll that just climbed out of your toy box. She looks so strange and bizarre (in a good way), and I love how her super blue eyes contrast with her red hair. Find more on her here: clickCLICK!
That's all for this week folks, Jenny will be contributing next Tuesday
