Hello!
I'm Kristina and I live by the sea in Brighton and work as a freelance illustrator. I dig cats, sequins, the internet, Nancy Mitford, cream teas, the Pre-Raphaelites and naps among other things.
This blog is a medley of drawings, photos and anything else I find pleasing to the eye.

“Broke” as in “I need a dollar”, or as in “it ain’t working no more”? Bit of an odd thing to say! I think this illustration is lovely, and a lady’s financial situation is none if our business.
reply
haha! this is great and sooo true!
reply
Jesus, I really want a fancy fucking hairbrush…

I got one for Christmas last year! A Mason Pearson that is. It is actually an excellent brush and will “last forever” I’m told.
reply
Brilliantly accurate!
reply
So. Good!
reply
I do rather love this, though I am that person who uses the personalised stationary, and loves to receive cashmere socks!

Hey, I have the fancy fucking hairbrush and a variety of dumb expensive candles, so I’m not judging ;)
reply
[...] The almighty Kris Atomic on gift guides. I’m filled with trepidation ahead of my own gift [...]
SO SO SO true!! You are hilarious (and fabulous at drawing).
reply
just perfect! I never understand who would spend so much money on totally non-personal gifts!
reply
Yep, this is absolutely 100% perfect. Yet I still want all this stuff… that’s probably the worst part!
reply
This is amazing! Am getting so many e-mails about gift guides, methinks one of the main reasons blogs are so popular is that we do things differently. Even if I were to put one together, it would not feature a £200 candle. In fact I don’t think I’m really qualified on advising people what to buy so I think I shall just post my own, rather practical Christmas list!
reply
SO ACCURATE.
And what if someone buys you a super tacky diamond ring? Thank god my friends and family aren’t rich :P
On a more serious note, Chanel nail polish is a semi-affordable but luxurious gift that most women in my life seem to love.

I just got one and can’t stop thinking that that money could have gone into 20 more unique shades by small-name brands of great quality (if anybody wants to know: Gabrini, Golden Rose and Flormar).
*sigh*
reply
I’m laughing so, so hard :D !
We shall not name names, right *pats the side of her nose* ?
reply
LMAO couldn’t be more true! Brilliant! That’s why I like to blog my own wish list. 1) it keeps my parents from asking and 2) it’s not crazy-unreasonable, as with said candle. ;)
reply
This post is exactly why I love you and your blog so hard!!

reply
Clearly I think I’m Gwineth effing Paltrow! Love this!
reply
This is perfect! Haha. :)
reply
You are a genius, my friend. Nicely done!
reply
You nailed this. Love it!
reply
This had made my whole winter. Working for a gift website, I’m endlessly choosing and lusting after gifts that I will never own or be bought! Thank you for this x
reply
You are amazing – I heart you and your brilliance. PLEASE tell me this will be available as a print?!
reply
I LOVE this! It’s sadly funny that this is so true.
reply
Kris, you’ve outdone yourself. I loled and loled.
reply
