wonderful little things...

We may have forgotten to mention it, but White Owl was
interviewed for a lovely  feature in little thing magazine.
We had heard of little thing here and we fell in love 
with the dreamy photography and styling.
We can't say how excited we were to be contacted,
and we can't wait to get our free issue!
(Of course we will post more  photos when we get it)

tribal influences

New designs have been making their way into the shop and the vibe is a bit 
more bohemian, more tribal. 
Plenty of chains and dramatic cuts of lace to appeal to the inner free-spirited  bohemian.

puur-fection! puur anders

Not long ago I came across the works of Miranda Van Dijk.
Stylist, blogger, artist and jewelry designer-
I love her style and find her work so perfectly textural, serene
and yet a bit dangerous.






Here is what Miranda says about her work...

"My art always tells a story. When I was little I loved legends and fairytales. They still inspire me. Mostly I start with finding inspiration from poetic photographs. Dreamy, mostly with rough nature and/or a woman or child as subject. I collect them throughout the year from blogs, flickr and magazines. Then I start to create some sort of legend. It just comes to my mind, but afterwards you can always read my personal view on how I see the world and her problems.

My jewellery collection tells the story about the last woman on earth. She is abandoned by Nature and she give up hope. But Flora still believes in her. She takes care of her and she changes. Mother Nature forgives her. That is when the evolution starts. A new men rises, half men half nature.

Right now I’m working on part three of this story, where a young girl raised by nature finds her other roots, those from men."

Happy Earth Day!

treasure house

I have to say I am fascinated by these homes...
I am a big fan of antiquities and although minimalist houses can
be very beautiful, I do love to have lots of treasures
from the past surrounding me.

april creations-yay!

We have been busy as little bees here chez White Owl...
Maybe it's being invigorated by spring, or maybe the very real possibility
that we will be featured in a fancy/fashiony print magazine,
(sshhh, it's a secret for now...)
At any rate, we have been whipping up some spring prettiness.
Want a peek?

hello spring!

A couple of weeks ago our dear friend Selmin had a party
to welcome spring.
The festivities were loosely based on Nowruz, which is a spring/ Persian New Year
celebration.
Her party included pretty spring decorations, lots of flowers, food
and drawing pictures of our wishes for the coming year.
