South African jeweller, Pieter Erasmus, is a man with Swarovski crystal-studded credentials. That's Not My Age met him at London Fashion Week earlier this year where we had a very nice chat, he showed me his gems and let it slip that Michelle Obama had been spotted in a St.Erasmus hand-crafted necklace at The White House Correspondents' Dinner. Before setting up his own company, Mr.Erasmus worked for the likes of Alexander McQueen, Givenchy and Roberto Cavalli. Check out the brand new St.Erasmus website here.
This grow your own pitch/greetings card from Postcarden is the perfect gift for football lovers everywhere. The cardboard package comes with a packet of cress seeds, a football and a match programme. The cress may take about 2-3 days to sprout but if the woeful performances so far are anything to go by, it'll be more exciting than watching England play.
Alternatively, why not spend 90 minutes over at the England's Glory exhibition at JHW Fine Art. A celebration of the beautiful game with over two hundred exhibits - including Peter Blake, LS Lowry and Michael Craig-Martin - from over two hundred years of football.
England's Glory is at JHW Fine Art, 27 Cork Street, London W1 from June 21 - 26 2010.

Wow, what a gorgeous necklace! I die!
回應是最大的支持^^y~~~甘吧嗲 .................................................................
A fabulous necklace - a real statement piece. Love the cress seed cards - saw some at a gift fair in Sydney last year and thought they were such a good idea... Oh and how disappointing the footie is.. especially to Mr SE who has risen from our bed at 4.30am both times to watch England play... he now wishes he had carried on sleeping! x
Maybe we should try growing our own football team. Might be rather more successful than the bunch of weeds we have now.
Great necklace. I am off to watch some exciting cress grow ;-) Xxxx
That is a stunning necklace...and I adore this post:)
Kisses darling and enjoy your day:)
I will be back very soon....
SE - I do like the new football/cress card, might buy one for my friends son who's football crazy. Poor MR SE, England have been dire so far, certainly not worth missing a good night's sleep for.
MDF - excellent idea. I think that we should grow our own manager too. Have this horrible feeling that Fabio is the new Sven.
DM - thank you! And please visit soon.
The fab necklace momentarily lifted my spirits about the football performance xx
Love the necklace but always wonder whether its best NOT to draw attention to ones neck as its getting older!
The necklace is beautiful, perhaps a little much for the school run though. And the cress pitch cards are brilliant. I might just get some. x
England have been playing like a secondary school football team. A cress pitch is too good for them!
Great idea for a present though! As is the beautiful necklace.

MDS - glad I could be of assistance!
NS - I know what you mean but I think the necklace offers ample coverage - unless of course you're Diane Keaton!
EA - oh I don't know dress to impress, and buy some cress.
AC - they are no better than a pub team.
Just googled Diane Keaton,see what you mean-but have you noticed she looks exactly like Sarah Palin ??
