Mitchell & Dent's Tittle Tattle

Yes, we are most definitely big fans of Bethamy Linton and her work. Mitchell & Dent spent a delightful day out at yesterday’s Wedding Upmarket right next door to Bethamy, chitchatting away, sharing cupcakes, gazing at glorious views, oh – and showing our wares to peeps planning weddings. Bethamy is a fourth generation silversmith who has a studio in the Swan Valley and while all of her work is something special, we were blown away by her silver and lace fans (boom tish).

Fine are in Sweden and make some mighty fine things. I don’t know how, but don’t you think these fine cutting boards (above) and these fine blocky-stripey things (below) go together just fine? I have a slightly-less-than-new nephew who might soon fine-d himself in a fine little hat. There is also a super Fine blog. It’s all top notch.

Poor Tittle Tattle, we’ve been so neglectful. But it is only because we’re super busy planning something super exciting. We’ll spill the beans real soon, promise. In the meantime, we’ve been thinking frocks. As stationers, Mitchell & Dent gets to work with lovely brides a lot and have heard how frustrating it can be to find these kinds of frocks in Perth (if you have, do please share!). Folks find them on Etsy, but would you be brave enough to order in a frock from overseas unseen? Well if you are, these ones look pretty…

We know a girl who just gave her notice in order to spend more time getting noticed for what she does best. You too can be noticed in notable vintage from The Vintage Valley. Congrats and good luck Ally.

The mesdames and their Macs are pals, but it is good to get a pencil out whenever possible. Madame Dent’s pencil of choice is a wooden Supply Co. ‘Very Best’ mechanical pencil with a 0.5mm 2B lead. So is Madame Mitchell’s. Mademoiselle Michelle opts for a Staedtler 3B and Mister Clifford favours an all natural Derwent Drawing 2B (no varnish or paint so bits don’t flake off in his mouth). What about you?

We also like this selection of pencil-related apparel, including Ashi Dashi Pencil Knee Highs, Sara Carr Pencil Scarf and Jeffrey Campbell Pencil Me In Flats.

Aaah, Very Purple Person, I get it. These ridiculously adorable cotton dresses that you make have something very important in common. They’re all ideal for the silly season, when a seventeen rumball dessert course is nothing out of the ordinary. You let our ballooning bellies be beautifully disguised. How sweet of you.

I have no words for the loveliness of Londoner Gemma Milly‘s illustration. It is pretty and girly and sweet and sassy and just perfect for a sunshine-y day like today. Enjoy.

Omigoodness. I don’t know where to start. I’ve been loving the blog A Beautiful Mess by Elsie Flannigan, choc-a-bloc full of vintage and creative crafty goodness and fashion. That alone would be enough, but then Elsie and her chum Rachel and sister Emma have just opened Red Velvet, a seller of vintage and pretty things and sweet shoppe combined. I want to go visit, but am sadly rather far from Missouri. Not to worry, there is a Red Velvet online shop, oh yay. Emma and Elsie pictured above thanks to Float Away Studios.

Ok. Yes. So. I’m a sad fan of Wesley Wales Anderson. I can just see myself on the deck of the Belafonte (even though I get seasick), off to kill the Jaguar shark (even though I quite like sharks), happily kitted out in my red beanie and Team Zissou kicks (even though I hardly ever wear sneakers). And so can 5,276 others. That’s how many people petitioned Adidas to make a real life Team Zissou shoe. And because Adidas can’t be assed, folks have just got on and done it themselves. And so can you, with these detailed instructions. Go Team Zissou!

On the subject of shoes and dancing, I am on the hunt for the perfect pair of pumps as I have two weddings to attend on the same day. Two of my favourite couples are tying the knot this Saturday, so said shoes will be required to take me from church, to the beach and onto the dance-floor. Here’s hoping they will be just as adorable as these Watching the Clock Heels from ModCloth.
