You may well recall in a post I wrote a while back that I bought some palm leaf cushions for the living room and the matching curtains (read about it here) with a plan to get my Maria Von Trapp on and re-cover a tired second hand footstool we had. Well I finally did it ...
Easter is a holiday that I had perhaps not given enough credit to over the years until I became a mummy. The weather is (usually) nice, everyone is off work and eating is a pre-requisite - what's not to love? This twinned with how much I enjoyed organising Daisy's birthday I have bravely (or stupidly) ...
With dwindling funds leftover from decorating to splurge on furniture and acutely aware that our small person may well indeed wreck any expensive items we did splash out on I have found myself following the upcycling herd and my is it satisfying (and cheap!). I had always been aware of upcycling and hacks and regularly ...
As well as loving fashion, I have discovered I am a big fan of interiors too and fortunately for me when it comes to home offerings the High Street has got stronger and stronger over the years. Gone are the days when you had to commit to spending a fortune on soft furnishings from designer shops and ...
In the spirit of New Year new me, 2017 may still be in it's infancy but I have already changed my sartorial dressing habits, something I have not done for years... I am wearing colour. I have to confess that since having a little girl I like pink. I must be clear though, I don't mean the ...
Love it or loathe it (I'm in the former gang), the big day is imminent and naturally with it comes Christmas shopping. I'd love to tell you at this point I had done all of mine and was quietly smug with my feet up but that is far from the truth. They say the first ...
One of my favourite spaces in our home centres around a star-shaped light I got years ago back before the sad demise of BHS. It stayed in it’s box patiently awaiting our house move and then when the dining room was finally finished it came out and now takes pride of place on the sideboard. ...
As my obsession with flora and fauna has grown, a recent visit to the hidden gem that is H&M’s home department lead to an excellent and affordable discovery for our grey living room... The hunt for the perfect cushions to adorn our grey sofa and work with our living room (and a baby) has been ongoing for quite sometime. ...
For those of us like me, who cannot keep a plant alive despite all my best efforts, this green fingered trend is perfect and won't need watering. Bringing the outdoors in, cheese plants, ferns and palms are big news and feature on everything from bed linen and shower curtains through to the smaller end of the ...
Every evening before I feel I can relax it's my mission to put away the dozens of plastic toys and books that litter the living room. As Daisy has grown so too has her collection so the hunt for chic storage was on... Ultimately I wanted something that would work in our living room as this ...
I'm a Fashion Editor, stylist and writer currently renovating our first home as well as recently becoming a Mummy for the first time to Daisy. Love anything grey, Scandi inspired, am a little bit camera shy and have a penchant for a flamingo. I'm also a big fan of the great British High Street and regularly scour it for amazing finds to prove you can have Style & Substance...
