Growing Filofax Malden family

My Filofax Malden family is growing .

I love the antique leather and in last month I bought two new Malden filo.

I already  have  A5 size Malden in grey but I find really difficult to carry around with me as is just too large, so I bought personal size Malden filo in black and pocket zip Malden in purple with I’m planning to use as my wallet and part of my organizational system. 

Eaudemoiselle de Givenchy Ambre Velours

The Eaudemoiselle collection by Givenchy, in the last three years, has launched five versions of Eaudemoiselle scent, counting the newest Eaudemoiselle by Givenchy Ambre Velours. For the newest fragrance, it could be said that the juice will be much "darker" than the previous editions, announced as flowery-woody. The basic Eaudemoiselle by Givenchy launched in 2010 gives an elegant floral composition lightened with sparkling citruses and refreshing herbs. The refinement of this edition is reflected with delicate ingredients, carefully chosen and composed, filling a very nice bottle. During the last three years Givenchy presented several successors, romantic variations to satisfy all tastes. 

By launching Eaudemoielle Eau Fraiche, Eaudemoiselle Eau Florale and Eaudemoiselle Bois de Oud, Givenchy has been playing with the main composition, giving fresher, more flowery or oriental-woody variations. The design of the bottle stayed the same, but the color of the glass was changed and customized with each edition's theme. The newest edition, Ambre Velours, contrasts all successors with the chosen notes and the seductive color of the bottle. The new dark purple bottle just look gorgeous! The outer box has the same dark nuances, decorated with golden details stressing the luxurious atmosphere and nobility of the notes. Eaudemoiselle de Givenchy Ambre Velours' composition will surely be seductive! Dark plum notes at the top are blended with pink pepper, announcing an intensive velvety rose note that comes from the heart. The heart notes are deep and warm, woven of honey-sweet roses and strengthened with woody accords of patchouli and cedarwood. The base notes give overwhelming heat made of precious resins. An intoxicating blend of opoponax, tolu balsam, benzoin, and amber share the warmth, together with smoky tonka.

VINTAGE PIP STUDIO

PiP Studio is a fresh new take on fashion accessories, ceramics and home decor from hugely imaginative Dutch designer Pip.

PIP was born in a small village by the sea as the youngest child of the family. PIP designs products she would like to buy if she could find them, which is usually not the case. 

Her vision on her designs is actually quite simple, practical and sincere: “If I make a product, it has to be so good that I would like to keep it myself or if I give it to a friend or member of the family it must bring a little bit of joy and happiness. Without this emotion, it cannot be a true PIP product”.

PIP’s style has a warm and almost intimate touchy-feely character. She often uses a mix and match concept with layered patterns and has a sharp eye for tiny details and special finishing touches combined with a subtle colour pallet.

PIP is busy bee who never stops; she is continually coming up with new ideas. This makes her a little restless since she has to get what she has thought up out of her system – to make room for new ideas all over again.

In the relatively short time since she set up her studio, she has created the following collections:

 A bed & bath collection of duvet covers, quilts, cushions, and bath and beach towels; A line of school articles with stationery and schoolbags; A line of notebooks, photograph albums, writing paper, and other attractive writing materials; A collection of greeting cards including a number of Christmas and New Year cards; A series of mugs for collectors; An extensive collection of wallpaper; Two versions of a breakfast service in green/blue and pink/red named ‘Lovebirds’; A collection of tableware, table-cloths, runners and napkins for the ‘complete’ table;A series of ‘home deco’ cushions; A splendid collection of bags
