I DO want to run off and join the circus, but only if it's Giffords!  The latest show is called 'Jasmine'.  We were packed like little sardines into the tiny tent and watched enthralled for 90 minutes of musical circus.  Brilliant band, delicious raggedy costumes (all of which I want, except maybe the pig's head - which might be a bit hot).  Supper afterwards is a MUST (or you can have cream tea if you visit for matinee).  Emma Bridgewater plates, candles and benches - bring your own wine.  Only touring Gloucestershir...

A new (ish) music magazine landed on our desks this week called NOTION. But think less NME and more i-D magazine thanks to the super-cool fashion pages that are dotted throughout this gorgeous glossy.

This has meant we have ripped the magazine to complete shreds to fi...

Notes for your diaries, Lisa will be showing in the autumn at the Original Art Fair 23rd-29...

Armed with my 4 Japanese words (sushi, kawaii, konnichiwa and arigato) I have arrived in Japan - I can't believe i'm here!  Clippy bags have gone a very long way since my kitchen table.  The last couple of days I have been busy bowing, smiling and customising bags for a beautiful store, Vulcanize London.
Extremely kawaii (meaning 'cute' but used as often as we say 'coooooool') actress, Suzanne Zannsu bought a jumbo washbag yesterday, personalised by moi!  I am THRILLED!
All the girls in Tokyo look amazing... ...

Do you love your teacher enough to give her a Clippy bag?  Filled with notes, pictures, photos and mementos?  Bring the whole form together to fill a medium or large bag - although a clip file or pencil case is just as thrilling.

Obviously you have to be a bit careful that you don't jam your eyes together but I still LOVE these completely ditzy papercut eyelashes.  They come in different sizes and shapes, so you can do the pretty punk look or just add a touch of the theatrical to cheer the day.  www.paperself.com
