Mitchell & Dent's Tittle Tattle

What is going on? In an era where we have easy access to the time on our phones, our tellies, our ovens, our computers and our hi-fis, why on earth would we need to wear a watch? Because they are so darn pretty, lookie lookie… 1. Starck, 2. IDEA International, 3. Nixon, 4. Starck, 5. Mr Jones Watches, 6. Nooka, 7. Nixon, 8. LIP and 9. Denise Julie Reytan (oh, and one of these things is not like the others, gotta love a jeweller with a sense of humour).

Oh chenille, forgotten fabric of the past, hello again. What have you been doing since the 1970′s? No matter. It is nice to see your sometimes-tufty, sometimes-taut textile-y self back all over bedspreads, dressing gowns and pillows like this one from The Pink Palace. You put the fancy into frou frou.

On my ‘If I win Lotto’ list is the back catalogue of John Fluevog shoes, a Saarinen chair and some Jacobson cutlery. Perhaps I should try buying a ticket?

On the other side of the world to us, but clearly Madame Mitchell is not ready to let the warm weather go and face autumn. She has made these wonderful prints of her original ink and graphite artworks on tea-stained paper available through our little online shop Mitchell & Dent. Mind you, Madame Dent is just a little concerned about what kind of shampoo Madame Mitchell uses.

If you, like Mitchell & Dent, think there is a distinct lack of chiffon in cocktail dresses of late and worry that a Hervé Léger frock won’t look quite so flattering after your fourth bellini, try Beverly Hill’s Timeless Vixen Vintage. Wonderfully ridiculous silk and tulle and lace concoctions from days of yore when necklines were made for jewellery and skirts were made for dancing.

Oh, Amy Atlas, you are too sweet. Sadly you are in New York, USA and we are in Perth, Western Australia and we cannot be together, but thanks to the internet you will always be our online eye candy.

Mesdames Mitchell & Dent are swooning over this too too beautiful work by Dutch designer Lenneke Wispelwey. We’ll be happy little bunnies when her products, like the ‘Flower Me’ vases and ‘Drink Me’ cups pictured above, are available online or in Australia.
