BOHEMIANS: LEOPARD DOODLE

 IN THE EARLY DAYS OF ALIX OF BOHEMIA, SHE SPENT MANY AN EVENING CUTTING PATTERNS ON THE FLOOR WITH US (WE LOVE YOU, OLIVIA). 

THE UPSIDE TO THE END OF SUMMER: ALIX OF BOHEMIA LEOPARD FOR FALL (REGARD, HERE)

SISTER BOHEMIA (OLIVIA-DOODLE IS HER NAME) PULLS OUT THE HIGHLY COVETED ICON TREWS IN CLASSIC LEOPARD FROM THE 2011 FALL COLLECTION. 

ASIDE FROM BEING OUR FIESTY SIDE-KICK SINCE BIRTH, DOODLE HAS A PENCHANT FOR HOMEMADE CARAMELS (IN BULK) AND FEATHERBEDS, AND IS ONE HELL OF A ROAD-TRIP COMPANION.

TOO BAD FOR YOU, THEY ARE COMPLETELY SOLD OUT: ANIMAL PRINT ENTHUSIAST ALICE OF THE CHARMING 'SUMMER IS A VERB' SNAGGED THE LAST PAIR. 

IF YOU'D LIKE TO JUMP ON THE BANDWAGON FOR THE NEXT INCARNATION OF ANIMAL PRINT TREWS, EMAIL HERE.

POCO BOHO: OSCAR AND ELLA IN MONGOLIA

OSCAR AND ELLA SEND US POSTCARDS FROM THE EDGE (MONGOLIA) AND UPDATE US ON THEIR DAILY SARTORIAL CHOICES WHILE RUNNING AROUND IN THE WILD.

 'TIE-DYE IS A NATURAL CHOICE WHEN RESIDING IN A TENT', SAYS ELLA.

ELASTICATED BLOOMER SHORTS IN LAVENDER FLOWERS.

ELLA DARLING, DO US A FAVOUR AND BRING US THAT DOOR BACK PLEASE? WOULD MAKE SUCH A DIVINE HEADBOARD.

BACK TO SCHOOL

RE-ENTRY IS A SWEET SORROW.

ALL THAT HAS HAPPENED IN THIS LOVELY LAPSE: WE WENT NATIVE IN MEXICO AND DEBATED WHETHER OR NOT TO RETURN TO URBAN LIFE. SO SWEPT AWAY WAS THIS BOHEMIAN BUNNY, BY THE MULTIPLE ADVENTURES OF THIS PAST MONTH. WE'VE IMAGES AND STORIES TO SHARE AND A SUITCASE TO UNPACK WITH 

ALL OF THE ALIX OF BOHEMIA 2012 SPRING COLLECTION.

WE DINED, BICYCLED, ROAD TRIPPED, DANCED AND SWAM IN CRYTAL WATERS WITH THESE CLOTHES, AND I SO LOOK FORWARD TO RELIVING THESE MOMENTS, ENHANCED BY THESE HANDMADE GARMENTS (WHICH, AFTER 30 DAYS OF NOT BEING WASHED, ARE ADMITTEDLY A LITTLE RIPE WITH SUNSHINE AND SEA SALT). I LIKE TO THINK THEY'RE BETTER WITH A FEW MILES LOGGED ON THEM; RICHER WITH A LITTLE LIFE EXPERIENCE.

WE'RE NOT QUITE READY TO SHOW YOU YET.

THIS NOMAD IS STILL ADJUSTING TO A ROUTINE OUTSIDE OF MAKING BEAUTIFUL HOLIDAYS AND EATING HER WEIGHT IN CEVICHE AND AVOCADOS.

HANG IN THERE PARTY PEOPLE, SPRING 2012 AND I ARE EN ROUTE.

HONG KONG, C'EST SUPER COOL.

REALLY, ANY CITY THAT BOASTS SUCH A TURQUOISE AS ONE OF ITS MANY CHARMS WOULD WIN MY HEART- AND WON MY BOHEMIAN HEART IT HAS.

BUT ALAS, ITS TIME TO GO FOR NOW. 

WE'VE SAID OUR GOOD-BYE'S. ONE OF THE MORE EMOTIONAL MOMENTS INCLUDED ONE LAST HUNT FOR TREASURE THROUGH SHAM SHUI PO. AS USUAL, THE CITY PROVIDED FOR ALIX OF BOHEMIA. BITS TO TIDE US OVER UNTIL THE NEXT TRIP: TURQUOISE ZIPPERS, CORAL BUTTONS AND MEXICAN LACE.

A FAR LESS ROMANTIC PICTURE, THE PACKING EXTRAVAGANZA OF ALIX OF BOHEMIA AND CO.(BEAR THE DOG IS COMING TO LONDON TOO).
IT DAWNED ON US THAT IN THE LAST FIVE YEARS, WE'VE MOVED CONTINENT FOUR TIMES. THOUGH OUR MANTRA IS USUALLY 'MORE IS MORE', THIS SEEMS A BIT EXCESSIVE.
LOOKING FORWARD TO LAYING DOWN SOME PERMANANT ROOTS IN THAT GLORIOUS CITY OF LONDRA.

BUT FIRST, ITS TIME FOR ANOTHER TRIP, BEFORE THE HUSSLE OF THE FALL SEASON. AND WHAT DOES A BOHEMIAN WEAR FOR A MONTH OF TRAVEL? TO CALIFORNIA? TO MEXICO? TO KUALA LUMPUR AND FINALLY LONDON?

WHY, AN ALIX OF BOHEMIA JUMPSUIT FROM SPRING 2012 OF COURSE.

CIAO FOR NOW DARLINGS.

WE'LL BE SHARING SOME BITS FROM THE ROAD- BUT APOLOGIES IN ADVANCE FOR THE RADIO SILENCE, WE'VE GOT A LITTLE RECHARGE TIME ON THE AGENDA.

BONSOIR, HONG KONG, ET MERCI.
