Gorgeous belated birthday card in the post last week - really brightened up a drizzly day and turned thoughts to sunnier times!

Details from El Greco to Goya
At The Wallace Collection currently: two rooms packed with Spanish paintings on loan from the Bowes Musuem, in Barnard Castle. I love the colours and details in this selection.
The show is free of charge and on display until 7th January - well worth a visit!

Coca cola
Taken from Nontsikelelo Veleko's 2006 series of portraits depicting South African street style, 'Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder'. I love everything about this outfit: the clash of colour, the accessorising. My favourite kind of personal style - fresh and surprising, effortless.
Carrying on the Coca Cola theme... my favourite T-shirt, maybe EVER and inherited (borrowed) from my fave person, my bro

Missing Summer...
Cornwall in July... Grandpa's sweet peas carefully transported home to London and Grandma's cream tea... summer flew past far too quickly and I'm nostalgic for it already!

Alice Neel
One of the many joys of London is that having time to burn is often a blessing, as I found last week while waiting for a friend to finish work. Nearby was the Victoria Miro Gallery and a retrospective of American painter Alice Neel's work. What a great show - full of life and vibrancy. Neel sounds like she was a pretty fab, painting and living in New York with her children and long term latino lover, her work focusing on local subjects.
