There are some lovely holiday card options available now at Port2Port’s Etsy Shop. As always, totally swoon-worthy. The limited edition calendar sold out already today, be quick and put your orders in for cards lest your favorites be gone soon too. (thanks Joy & Grace for the heads up.)

Roland Mouret will be unveiling his collection of dresses in the U.S. for the Gap on December 1. The collection of ten dresses caused a riot in London last week as it was unveiled there. Lovely stuff… I’ve only seen a few dresses from the collection and I really like what I’m seeing. Very wearable and—dare I say—comfortable looking dresses. According to the Telegraph, Mouret tested his dresses on girls in the Gap offices rather than fit models. Three of the ten dresses are for Project(Red) and the most expensive dress in the collection tops out at $108. Love that.

Love Made Visible has a new look! Kind of. I’ve made just a few changes around here. As much as I’ve loved using Blogger over the years (Since 2001!) I recently discovered the joy of using WordPress through Nirali. Please take a look around. Some of the new features include: categories (26 to be exact!), forward and back buttons on each post page so going back to the index isn’t necessary, and an integrated search feature to find past posts easily.

Of course none of this would not be possible if it wasn’t for the fabulous Arun Kale who coded this custom theme for me. Blogger templates I can handle but PHP? Scary! Thanks so much to Arun.

Please let me know what you think in the comments. (Especially if you have browser issues.) Hope you like it!

Absolutely loved the work of Kareem Iliya… reminds me of Mats Gustafson but with bolder patterns. These watercolor illustrations are so inspiring. Great color sense… great everything, really. (via Juniper)

Mimi Ko’s photography is so gorgeous. The above were my two favorite shots in her portfolio. Gorgeous delicate color and fabulous light.

Love these one-of-a-kind prints, made by essentially test printing existing artwork Binth already has in stock. Saw it first from Grace last month but hadn’t gotten a chance to really look at them till now. Beautiful imagery and great color combinations. Buy your favorite before someone else does.

Louis Vuitton has added a new book to its series of travel notebooks, this one of Mumbai. I love these books… I recently bought the New York book illustrated by one of my favorite illustrators, Ruben Toldeo. The Mumbai book is illustrated by Florine Asche and is teeming with gorgeous watercolor illustrations based on the artist’s travels in Mumbai. Fantastic stuff, really and truly. The book is currently sold out but is in production for a reprinting and should be available soon in stores nationwide. Mili wrote a lovely piece about it in our new issue of Nirali Magazine out now…. be sure to check out the article and our new issue.

Saw Bodo Sperlein’s work for Lladró in a new special issue of House & Garden and after googling him, found his work quite impressive. I especially loved the Golden Forest fine china set he designed for Germany’s Dibbern. In all, his work shows great shapes with fantastic classic silhouettes and lovely spare and modern patterns.
