Especially what inspires designers and those that truly have an appreciation for aesthetics. <br /><br />I felt the same way about our blogger dinner. I was inspired for weeks after too. There's nothing like great conversation with like minds. I would say that I have been inspired (and exhausted) lately by work and one of my former colleagues and friends who recently published a memoir. I keep thinking that we're way to young to have memoirs but it has inspired me to be more fearless.Lindsay Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08756634487046300517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-30129131783499969982013-03-04T19:09:38.262-05:002013-03-04T19:09:38.262-05:00the fact that there is now a Pantone color called ...the fact that there is now a Pantone color called 'linen' just makes me happy. it's so cold today that i'm ready for jacket weather to get here!miss sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09427223953623415005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-88085374162113869962013-03-04T19:08:53.484-05:002013-03-04T19:08:53.484-05:00chunky knits, yes! and leopard prints :) are you w...chunky knits, yes! and leopard prints :) are you wearing your leopard coat?miss sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09427223953623415005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-60142193152700967282013-03-04T19:08:22.641-05:002013-03-04T19:08:22.641-05:00you know, i think i will. everyone here seems to g...you know, i think i will. everyone here seems to give her recipes such rave reviews. <br /><br />Dries sounds perfect - it's a dream of mine to one day own one of his pieces!miss sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09427223953623415005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-77743449238950266282013-03-04T19:07:38.105-05:002013-03-04T19:07:38.105-05:00aww, if you were here with us you'd have seen ...aww, if you were here with us you'd have seen that it really was a gathering of friends. :)<br /><br />the sun is setting a bit later now, which makes a huge difference!miss sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09427223953623415005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-4270895175854107172013-03-04T19:05:00.804-05:002013-03-04T19:05:00.804-05:00yes! ooh i love that you started making your own D...yes! ooh i love that you started making your own DIY ones. do post more of them on your blog?<br /><br />next time i'm in London, i will definitely ping you ahead of time!miss sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09427223953623415005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-82679706449841499362013-03-04T19:04:03.949-05:002013-03-04T19:04:03.949-05:00as Amanda noted, i think i'm going to have to ...as Amanda noted, i think i'm going to have to make this in larger batches and freezing it!<br /><br />you know, lindsay and i were just saying that you're overdue for a NYC visit this year :) miss sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09427223953623415005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-53849380168300314752013-03-04T19:03:08.322-05:002013-03-04T19:03:08.322-05:00thanks! :) i will definitely start making this a r...thanks! :) i will definitely start making this a regular series. miss sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09427223953623415005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-51471889523663149092013-03-04T19:01:20.782-05:002013-03-04T19:01:20.782-05:00ha! i'm already thinking about making the ragu...ha! i'm already thinking about making the ragu sauce/pasta again this week. still can't believe how such a simple and low-cost recipe could be SO GOOD.miss sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09427223953623415005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-71001156889333956672013-03-04T19:00:19.311-05:002013-03-04T19:00:19.311-05:00that would be so fun! i'll let you know next t...that would be so fun! i'll let you know next time i'm in Londontown :)miss sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09427223953623415005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-84391330696854587042013-03-01T13:54:05.190-05:002013-03-01T13:54:05.190-05:00Fantastic quote from Vivienne W!

And some of the Pantone colors that were chosen for this spring (Linen, Alloy, Tidal Foam, Poppy Red, Lemon Zest, Tender Shoot, Nectarine, they're all so pretty). And just the advent of spring in general...L.P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13837258696952174540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-24015373941684466732013-03-01T11:33:58.284-05:002013-03-01T11:33:58.284-05:00Awe man, I am also a bit envious I couldn't ha...Awe man, I am also a bit envious I couldn't hang out with all of you ladies.

You should invest in one of her cookbooks for the pasta sauces alone. <br /><br />Sartorially, I'm feeling inspired by Dries s/s 13 - loving the insouciant mix of plaid and florals.

My awkward and slightly socially inept self would probably end up having an anxiety attack over such a thing - thankfully most people aren't like me ;) <br /><br />I have been inspired by the return of sunlight. It is no longer pitch dark when I walk to work in the morning, and it is such an extra energy boost for the rest of the day.Majahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07003238334988052560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-69415039019604551892013-03-01T05:22:49.233-05:002013-03-01T05:22:49.233-05:00I love the bracelets - are they the Chan Luu ones?...I love the bracelets - are they the Chan Luu ones? I had one quite similar years ago from another designer called Cherry Chau and I loved it. I loved it so much I made my own and do that now with pearls and stones. I love the button like fastenings as I use that a lot in the jewellery I make. <br /><br />What a wonderful blogger dinner you must have had and to meet people like Lindsay and Fleurette who I follow on their blogs. I would love to have been a fly on the wall - actually, I would have rather just joined you in person but hey it's another country and London was far enough for me this time for my bloggy meet.

And yes, it is the best ever. Also delicious with bread or frankly, on its own. Her book is my favourite Italian cookbook - in ten years I have never seen a recipe go wrong.<br />How fun does your blogger dinner sound! I am a tad envious ;)<br />At the moment I am inspired by work, which is a good space to be in. Also, by a pile of books and stories written by friends and colleagues - always inspiring to see hard work pay off :)Ammuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02923254445776325697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-57332000298608927592013-03-01T02:06:58.543-05:002013-03-01T02:06:58.543-05:00The meetup sounds like it was a great time, if onl...The meetup sounds like it was a great time, if only I could have been there - I'm sure you all had insightful things to say and sharp senses of humor! <br /><br />Also I really like the idea of an inspiration diary, I might have to try it myself.

Oh, and re: the Marcella Hazan pasta sauce...sometimes we change up the recipe a bit by adding italian sausage or whatever leftover meats we have in the fridge. It works especially well with slow-cooked pork. jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10455079295448117881noreply@blogger.com
