1. ruth wilson of jane eyre, anna karenina, and the bbc show luther, looks amazing in one of my favorite looks from the dior spring 2013 collection. / 2. garance doré has opened a shop selling her illustrations as posters and art prints. perfect for any fashion loving friend on your gift list (or yourself) / 3. a mirrored clutch is high on my holiday wishlist and this one from kate spade has the perfect amount of polish. / 4. oh so beautiful paper has a great round-up of 2013 calendars…this letterpress one from the made shop is functional but also looks like a cool piece of art. / 5. besides the grace coddington memoir, i’ve been devouring vogue: the editor’s eye in anticipation of the upcoming hbo documentary airing on thursday. i’m so excited to see and hear more about how some of my favorite editorals came to life…it’s what i love about magazines.

have a great weekend!
