sucker for soccer [posters]

I don’t like soccer but I love these beautiful soccer posters done by designer Zoran Lucic.They’re so cool and retro.

I had to restrain myself from posting all of them. There are a lot more here

trending / headbands & high collars

liking these both a lot at the moment.

Amber Jones for Mr Price.

Just love the new Amber Jones Collection for Mr.Price. Go here and here to see interviews and more information on the range. I just got the white lace dress this week and I love it, it fits so nicely!

and I’m secretly mad with how long these girls legs are! wow. Here I am in this dress, with my naughty cat. x

The range hits selected Mr.P shops on 25 July and will be displayed on lumo pink hangers! : )

why I love my Olympus

I did a review on my little camera a few weeks ago, but yesterday discovered this incredible stop motion they made for it! wow! This is in a whole new league of stop motion! Keen to try something like this one day though.

I love ‘em

can you find a home for these?

Jo?

Found them at hospice (on sale. yes a sale at hospice) and thought of someone who might like them.

the bambi’s, the boat and the two little mice are my favourite. Do you have space for these in your collection? ; )

Win a R777 voucher for Nonna gift & decor shop

If you saw my page in the July issue of Fairlady you’ll see Nonna was one of the things i’m smitten with at the moment. It’s a beautiful shop packed with shelves full of beautiful and unusual things for your home and it’s right in my nice neighborhood Craighall Park. I went on friday and took LOTS of photos. They’ve generously sponsored a R777 voucher (random but awesome right) for me to give away to you guys!

Excited? I am. To enter all you have to do is leave me a comment below telling me what you like/want in the photos above! : )

This competition is only open to SA residents. If you live outside of Joburg, I can either send you the voucher to spend when you come up here, or I can pick out something for you? what do you think?

I’ll draw a winner on Monday the 1st August 2011. and again if you tweet about it you get an extra entry (It worked for Tori last time – twice the chances of winning! just remember to @emmajanenation me in your tweet so I can see it!)

Good luck! x

delicious nautical packaging

Man, I wish I had found out about these while I was in the UK. I would’ve bought every one of these products! They were all made for a charity (RNLI) that ‘saves lives out at sea’. This is their range of confectionary goods. i’m in love with the beautiful nostalgic packaging

Fancy something pretty for your home?

Loeriesss!

The finalists for the loerie awards were released this week, and i’m so happy to actually be able to say that me and two friends are finalists in a category called ‘digital craft’ for a flash game we designed.

The loerie awards are quite a big deal, they’re like the oscars for advertising and design in South Africa so it’s such an awesome honour to be finalist and to be able to go down to Cape Town, meet people and network. It’s been a dream of mine since first year to win a loerie before I graduate and just being a finalist is amazing!

So we’re holding thumbs! : ) if you want to check out our game that we designed go here
