This is not my first post about the many reasons why I love faux-liage but since then I now have twice as many faux plants in my house which has been entirely fuelled by their popularity on the high street. Whereas it was once far from ok to have fake flowers in your home, now ...
We are just hours away from the long Easter weekend - yay! I love a bank holiday weekend and especially Easter as it involves four days of eating chocolate, dressing up your child in all number of novelty clothing and no working. And it wouldn't be Easter without a bunny or two, (which I am ...
If you have been following my Insta-stories of late you will know that we have been living through a kitchen extension. Relatively speaking it has been a quick build (or so I am told by my husband and the builders) but that doesn't mean going without an oven, washing machine and sink has been fun, ...
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. ...
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...
