orla rolls into town!
I took a little jaunt by train to New York today to attend the launch of Orla Kiely's new paper line this morning. Due to hit stores in the US within the next few weeks {and already out in the UK}, the line is super cute, full of wonderful details, and a great extension of Orla's well-known clothing and accessory collection. Orla herself was super nice, too! Oh, and that image up top is a tram in Hong Kong that Orla decorated with her signature multi-color stem print..what an amazing ride that would be...
{Orla Kiely's paper line will be available in the US at select Anthropologie stores, MoMA, and Twig, and more soon...}
ooo, can't wait! that tram is great!

You are lucky to have attended the launch. The tram looks so cool. I saw the lines several times over the last two weeks. Still, I am always fascinated by the patterns.

Upon first glance, reading your title and seeing that bus I thought that was in New York and I started cracking up thinking how that would have gone over! :) The British are coming! The British are coming!
We SO need more creative public transportation in this world. Love that photo. So much.
Did you have fun at the event? What was it like?

That by far has got to be the most fashionable tram I have ever seen. I'm sure the opening was awesome! I would have loved to have been there. Please share more details and photos of this!

the tram went past me this morning on my way in to work (i'm currently in hong kong on business). it is impossibly fantastic, as is the shop at times square here in hk.
