Animal Crackers

When I was a little girl, I wanted to work in an Animal Wildlife Preserve and be surrounded by all kinds of animals.  Now that I’m older (and a little wiser), I don’t think I’ll ever work in one, I do not have the patience to study any field of Science. But that doesn’t mean that I’ve lost my love for animals. I just found another outlet to manifest that interest. As of the moment, I have 16 future pets in mind. I say future because it is impossible to keep that many pets when you live in an apartment and have a little puppy who thinks of herself as queen of our building. Let me introduce my 16 little treats to you. 



Dinah (a really really fat cat)



Mr. Snuffles



Muffin



Pancakes



Waffles



Buck the Duck (from The Little Rascals)



Pudgie, Porkie and Petunia



Pippin "Ip" (I love Audrey Hepburn. I want to be just like her)



Tinkle





Sapphire the Unicorn (No but she'll really just be a white horse with a toy horn)




Billy



Simba/Nala



Shamoo



Mamoo



I don't think I'll get any of these pets soon. Heck, I might not even get some of them at all. I guess I'll just have to stick to stuff toys and animal crackers.

Today



Because it's a Monday and Monday's are so dreary.

Dear Santa


I've been a very good little lamb this year. I thought I'd make it easier for you by making a list of things I'm hoping to get under the tree this year.





Alice in Wonderland Premiere tickets (please, oh please)


Lots (and lots and lots and lots) of new clothes and shoes.


Audrey Hepburn Movie DVDs


English Telephone Booth



Chanel 2.55 Reissue or Chanel Classic Flapbag




Period movie DVDs





Fairy lights


Tickets to see the Tim Burton Exhibit in MoMA (Please include roundtrip airfare and a stopover to Disneyland and the Alice in Wonderland Display. :D )




Polaroid camera



A bike


Photobooth (Like the one in A Lot Like Love)


Fairy books





Old books




Eternal Clouds for my room


A little sister (You might need the stork's help on this one.)




My list this year is a bit long but I promise I've been extra good. I know you're only supposed to give one present per kid, but maybe the elves can put everything in an extra big box? The milk and cookies will be ready when you come.


Love,
Camille

Let's Play Dress Up



Just found this on a tumblr site, and I must say, I could not agree more.

Cosmic Dreams


I'm not serving my own universe, but am responsible for illustrating the imaginary world of others, sharing it with inspiration." - Christian Lacroix

Inspired by the great man himself, I found myself making these magical pieces.


Victorian Spring
Penelope was always a great romantic. Her dreams are always filled with sweet young ladies in corsets and colorful ball gowns happily enjoying the company of chivalrous men in their dapper suits. She imagines the soft laughter of ladies being drowned by the sound of the horses hooves hitting the cobble-stoned streets. Oh, how she wished to be part of this beautiful world of galloping horses, delicate lace gowns, freshly picked flowers and coquettish romance. A world that once was, a world that will never be again. But she has her dreams and the flowers and lace that she wears in her hair.


Summer Frolic
Lily spends most of her summer days lying in fields of flowers. Her cheeks often flushed from the heat of the warm summer sun and her eyes sparkle at the thought of popsicles and the cobbled stones of worlds beyond her dreams. Her mother thought it was silly for Lily to spend her days with her head in the clouds, but Lily knew otherwise. She knew her daydreams would take her places someday. But for the meantime, she'd rather laze around and make crowns of flowers.



Autumn 's Embrace
Chelsea loves to sit in the park under her favorite tree which she lovingly calls Monica. Monica is a regal tree with branches outstretched far and wide. She has witnessed most of Chelsea's teenage life. Chelsea's first love, first kiss and even her first break up. Just as Chelsea witnessed how seasons have changed her favorite tree, Monica has likewise seen how each season has also made Chelsea bloom to an even more beautiful person. And just about this time of the year, for the past 10 years or so, when Monica's leaves are just about to change its colors, Chelsea would spend an entire day just sitting by her tree and watch as each deep-hued colored leaf gather around her. She mindlessly creates a wreath of leaves and flowers that have fallen from Monica’s branches, a little souvenir until spring comes around again.

Child's Play
Marisa and Rosie are two of the most opposite sisters you will ever meet. They hardly agree on anything and quarrel over almost everything, but if there is one thing that they can ever agree on - it is child’s play. They both love to play make believe and let their imaginations run wild. Sometimes, they even dress up in their swimsuits and pretend they were mermaids in search of the sunken city, Atlantis. Other times, they would gather little rosebuds from their garden and make headbands and pretend they were fairies in Neverland. Whatever adventure they were having, they were always fighting for the same team, and keeping each other safe. These are the times when they are the sisters to reckon with.
