I slept badly last night, and my wonderful man, Mr. Dot, let me sleep while going to the gym @ 6 a.m., coming back, realising the toaster had packed up, going back out and buying a new one, making himself toast, and waking me with a kiss & a cup of tea. All the time I was having dreams of the sea & sand & sky, and picturing a posting of Carry & another guest @ the WEBA awards ('on mothers, daughters, & mermaids')
It wasn't until later that I realised, it's not just Golden Slumbers, it actually segues into Carry that Weight. Nothing like a bit of serendipity to start the day. Carry's gorgeous custom made golden silk dress is from a designer based in Spitalfields, and when I next talk with her, I'll get you his name. If it's Paul, I'm going back to bed, because I'm surely dreaming.
p.s. update: just asked Carry, it's not Paul, it's Amin Phillips, of 'love and be loved'. This is all I can find on him for contact details - a phone number, basically - but watch this space, as that dress is too gorgeous for him not to be hugely successful.

That gold dress is unbelievable!! I'm completely in love and I WANT ONE!!
Am gonna reply here since email doesn't seem to be working....
Yo Polka Dot....I believe it's you who is unattainable...I emailed you to say that I have ALREADY added you to my links list under Street Styling, as Pics by Polka Dot and then your email bounces back saying the mailbox is unattainable.....you requested a link last time in your comment and I replied to that as well.... no tips required from other people.... give the correct email address woman!
So you have, Miss Bubble, so you have! Just left a msg on your blog. It was very spooky actually - as I was about to leave it, a clap of thunder, my laptop froze up, had to re-start... the wrath of god speaking.
Thanks for adding me!
To Miss Spy (Amy) - just got the designer's name from Carry, it's Amin Phillips but here's still really unknown. He made it custom for her - I remember her saying she was coming to London for a fitting - it looks like he basically sewed her into it.
omg, love that gold dress!!!

That yellow dress is AMAZING!!! I want!
designer of gold dress is Amin Phillips and company name is Loved and be Loved (he's on myspace)
Amin Phillips does lovely work. For anyone who is in London, he usually has a booth at Spitalfields Market on Sundays (somewhere between Giraffe and Las Iguanas). He has made several things for me including a fabulous winter coat.
This very talented man sells his clothes at the Spitalfields sunday market... check them out. His jackets are amazing too! x
