I just stumbled across the blog of Jasmine Fitzwilliam. Show + tell documents her journey from Canada to San Diego in the most beautiful fashion.

I am back from New York. I am exhausted. I got to meet the lovely Joanna. I bought SO much stuff. I ate some amazing food. I am now 27.
I’ll write about it all properly soon. For now, see some photos.

Thanks for your New York tips. I leave tomorrow and can think of nothing else.
See you in a week.

I am going to New York on Wednesday and I need your help. If you have any shopping, restaurant or bar tips, please, please, please let me know. I already have an itinerary longer than my six day stay but there are 24 hours in a day and I WILL SEE IT ALL. Thanks!

It is my birthday in less than one week. For my birthday I would like a pony, a moustache, a bear (grolar or grizzly) and a trip to New York. I am getting the latter. To make up for not getting the rest, I may buy myself one of these seriously great prints from Glasgow’s Little Robot. A girl in a jackalope coat is clearly the next best thing to all of those.

BBE has some photos of me on his phone wearing a moustache. Part of what makes him the BBE is that not only does he not think it’s weird, he thinks it works.
I don’t know what it is that I like so much about moustaches. Maybe it’s that I know I will never, ever have one. Or maybe it’s that they remind me of explorers and scholars. Or of my dad when we were younger. Whatever the case, something’s hiding in here loves them too and that makes her ok by me.

I mentioned Candida Hofer’s libraries book a few days ago. Now you can see some of its highlights in all their glory. Holy moly. Best ever!

I don’t have any news. Or anything funny or interesting to say. Not about these photos by Markku Lahdesmaki, or anything else really. Anyway, I think they speak for themselves and they say things much more beautifully than I ever could.

Today was one of those perfect London days. It started with breakfast at Jamie Oliver’s Fifteen and a trip around the Borough Markets. Then we headed to the Hayward Gallery for the AMAZING Psycho Buildings exhibition, which is worth seeing for Rachel Whiteread’s contribution alone. Then we went to the Scandinavian Kitchen for lunch, stopped in at Gordon Square where we listened to a nearby opera singer rehearse, then headed to the Wellcome Collection for the most incredible selection of random medical odds and ends. Florence Nightingale’s moccasins! Napoleon’s toothbrush! Now we’re home for DVDs and tomato salad. The best!

Candida Hfer would have to be one of my favourite photographers. There’s something perfectly eerie about her empty spaces. This series is from the latest edition of the amazing 1000 Words magazine.
You can also check out her incredible Libraries book.

Life can be pretty tough sometimes. There are highs, sure, but then there are lows. And then even lower lows. And then there’s rock bottom where it’s dark and maybe sandy.
This is the work of Mimi Kirchner. Moustached, tattooed man dolls in striped trunks. Yep. I know. Amazing, right? Thanks to Mimi, I’m pretty sure things will never get dark and sandy again.

If you liked the lonely ski fields, you’ll love these haunting photos of an abandoned amusement park. Seriously lovely stuff.

I love NY Magazine’s look book. There are so many beautiful, stylish, eccentric people to be inspired by.

I’m kind of digging these outfits from The Sartorialist and Face Hunter. They’re not normally my thing but these ladies pull them off, don’t you think?

There’s just one week left to get your My Heart Wanders photos in to the lovely Pia. If you haven’t seen, she’s doing a cute countdown every day.
Check out Pia’s blog for all the information you need on the kind of photo to submit and where to send it.
