update: i have finally figured out how to post largest style images on the blog. yay! so i tried it out with beautiful mina coats, up close and large:) i used this way for large image posting. but i have since seen that is actually not good, as may be a dodgy shortcut. i think i am meant to use a separate image hoster. hmmm. i will be looking in to it further...a learning curve for me because i am not so techno-savvy... some pictures of the magical mina perhonen that i like, too. pictures are sourced via (in order): mina perhonen site chewing the cud grijs petit garden mina perhonen site (x2) designsponge and i think this filmclip that hiki posted is simply the best to see mina perhonen fashions in their natural habitat. this is an earlier post on mina perhonen textiles. and a mention of the mina perhonen embroidery book. some more fashion: i like this flower stockings pink shoes combo over on a polish blog (found via bitsandbobbins.com). my vintage vogue is beautiful (found via vegan and vintage). the obus summer two tone action i am a fan of. i hope to find a melbourne supplier of the polkadot style of swedish minimarket, thanks to tspoon of sunshine, and the september issue is as good as they say, i think.
