flea market finds: double B!

as if to herald the arrival of spring, my newest finds have been a riot of color, design and texture, running the gamut from the cultural to the intellectual and finally to the commercial.  first is the canvas print of aboriginal art by Kevin Chief Pierpoint.  i am fascinated by the swirls, the circles and the lines. its almost like the mysterious Nazca lines in Peru.

my next find is a brown vintage Balenciaga handbag :)  it is just small and compact and perfect for moi :)


this last one i am not familiar with but i was intrigued by the title and the cover design.  eclectic and very intriguing, i am looking forward to reading this whilst enjoying some sun :)
