Christian Lacroix stationery

In these modern times of email, text and tweet, it is very refreshing to see the resurgence of good old fashioned writing sets.  Where people actually put pen to paper, put a stamp on the envelope and post it to the recipient.  There is some fabulous stationery out there, and my favourite at the moment has to be the Christian Lacroix stuff I've seen in Liberty, Selfridges and in LA.  For my daughter's wedding invite I used the Christian Lacroix 'Love notes'.  These were not available in the UK so I ordered them on US Amazon and had them delivered to an address in LA.  For the inserts I used beautiful card purchased in Paper Source in America.  This store is totally amazing, they have everything you could ever want, in every colour and every size.  I wish they would open a store in the UK!  I love the whole punk, glam, collage element to what Lacroix has done.

I have posted a pic at the bottom of what I produced for the wedding invite.  Hope you like!
