Animal Cereals Bowls - Geraldine De Beco


Would like to eat your cereals out of these bowl each morning? I love them very much. 

These positively stunning bowls were created by the French designer Geraldine De Beco for the porcelain company Bernardaud.



She really created a cool series of ceramic breakfast bowls which have a cute little surprise when filled with liquid. The bowls look really strange while empty, but once you fill them with milk, yogurt or any solid color liquid, the form of an animal magically appears.



You can choose from three different animals: a cat, a wolf or a bird. However, don’t let your kids see these! Pretty amazing, huh? Unfortunately, it costs 240€ a piece! 

They are available through one of Bernardaud’s points of sale. I can’t find these for sale online anywhere.

Peter Pilotto - The 'Indonesian' Spring/ Summer Collection



My Fashion post of today is about the Fashion Designer, Peter Pilotto and Indonesia. Yes! it was about indonesia :-) A trip to Indonesia along with pacific island and water world controlled the atmosphere of Peter Pilotto Spring/Summer Collection 2012.




The designer said the collection is “an incredible journey that gave us the opportunity to experience the awesome natural environment of java, the lush jungles, the tea, coffee, cacao, and clove plantations, and to see the volcanic craters and sulphuric plumes of smoke first-hand”. 



And all of this erupted out into his signature dresses, this time comprised from landscapes of fauna and leaf print in neon shades to create a psychedelic nod to flower power. 




The designer is known for his original prints. This time, the prints were vivid and eye-catching with those surreal undersea patterns, tropical flowers, jungle shapes and volcano shades.


Skirt shapes on their classic dresses were stronger and built out into pouffy clouds like ball gown or prom dresses, or boasted peplum cascades to create a volume we were not so familiar seeing from them. It was a fitting match for the bold and bright prints beneath. 




I hope you'll enjoy his collection as much as I did!


Have a breezy day,
