Obsessed with El-Aich Designs
Obsessed with El-Aich Designs I love Instagram, obviously because it’s full of inspirational imagery on a regular basis but also because it introduces me to new brands and independent sellers that I may not have found any other way. Since moving into my flat I have been slowly filling it with interesting and unique pieces...
A/W 2015 homeware from ASDA
The A/W 2015 homeware from ASDA has seriously impressed me. More and more ‘high street’ stores are upping their game in the homeware range, jumping on to trends that wouldn’t be amiss on the most popular of Pinterest boards. I’m still a huge fan of copper (sue me), so mostly everything below features it in...
7 Amazing Hanging Baskets from Etsy
I’ve developed a bit of an obsession with hanging baskets. Even though I am notoriously known for killing plants quicker than you can say Baby Bio, I have started filling my flat with them. So many in fact that I am running out of space to put them. Until I started hanging them from the...
Feature wallpaper on a budget
It’s really fun to decorate where you live. But it can get pretty expensive. Especially when you’re looking at big money for just a couple of rolls of feature wallpaper for your living room. So once the offer on my flat had been accepted I created a short list of great wallpaper prints from high-street...
Sofa, so good
In what could be described as the mother of all #firstworldproblems, I am finding it really hard to pick a sofa for my new place. I have been lusting after the above since I first started looking for sofa living room ideas. It’s the Halston 3 seater corner sofa from Made.com. I love the colour and I...
The thing about Wilkinson’s homeware…
…is that it is actually really good. I wandered into one of their stores last week to kill some time and stumbled across their home section. I’ve started to become even more obsessed with home interiors now that I am looking to buy a flat, so naturally I took a good look around. That is...
Currently Coveting: Vintage Drinks Trolley
I’ve been wanting a drinks trolley for the longest time (even longer when you consider how long this post has been sitting in my drafts). Somewhere to hold the good stuff for guests and parties, as well as all the cute glasses and drinking paraphernalia I have collected over the years. Source Source Source Source...
M is for Metal
I love metal. And not the heavy, musical kind, but the glossy, industrial, luxe, shiny (I could go on) kind. If I could, I think I’d live in a metal house – although I think it’d be very hot in the summer and I’d probably get bored of it before the first sign of rust....
T is for Tiles
When you think of tiling you probably think of the generic white squares around your bath. Or perhaps, and even worse, the old-fashioned floral monstrosities in your Grandma’s kitchen (although I wonder if these are so retro they’ve become cool again?). Either way, there’s so much more to tiling than protecting your walls from water....
The IN Thing – Our Night IN
Winter is coming! Correction, Winter is here and London is feeling pretty nippy right now! I don’t know about the rest you but when the cold sets in I batten down the hatches and never want to leave. But… inevitably one of your mates thinks it’s a great idea to have a night out in...
I’m dreaming of a Christmas Hamper
Today a funny feeling overcame me almost the very moment after I donned my winter knitwear for the first time this year (yes, it’s November, but I was cold and all my other jumpers were in the wash or somewhere on my bedroom floor under a mountainous pile of clothes). I started getting VERY EXCITED...
P-p-p Pick up a Penguin (lamp)
Do you ever get completely fixated on something that you have no real need for? A pair of shoes you won’t ever wear or a £40 candle that’s too nice to burn (the latter I have had a lot of experience with). This week I am currently obsessed with a lamp in the shape of...
