So it's Spring (okay, nearly Summer) and that means florals. Florals are freakin' EVERYWHERE at the minute and it's just something that's natural at this time of year. Flowers blooming outside means flower patterns inside. There's not been a year since I started...

As you probably know, I absolutely adore houseplants. I have always had quite a collection but when we moved house, I decided to retire a few that didn't make it through the winter, knowing that Spring would soon be here and that once we moved, I'd be able to update...

I've been wanting to share my tips on shelf styling with you for quite some time so I thought given I have a lovely shelf sat in my living room, it was a good opportunity to do just that. Of course, there are a million ways to style a shelf and that's probably why the...

I've known for quite a long time that I'm pretty much just obsessed with interiors. That's not to say I don't have other interests in my life - of course, I do. I'm a normal, nuanced, multi-layered person just like you. But when it comes to interiors, there is a sense...

It's funny how even when you think you've done a good job of decluttering your home, there are always areas that are magnets for rubbish. While we'd done a very good job of getting rid of lots of extraneous things in the preparation work for putting our house on the...

It's January. In the Northern Hemisphere - for many of us, including me - it's pretty much the crappiest month of the year. The weather is garbage, it's cold, it's bleak and you're probably a bit strapped for cash after the excesses of the festive season. You've...

Oh, Pantone. I know your heart is in the right place. I really do. I know you have a whole team of amazing experts who sit around a room and think long and hard about what colour best represents the zeitgeist of the world at that moment and do your best to interpret...

Oooh, controversial! I know, I know, I'm gonna have a whole bunch of comments across social media and my blog of people getting royally annoyed with me for even daring to do this. But well, what can I say. The thing is trends are weird. In fashion, because we change...

If I had a pound for every time I've been referred to as an interior designer in things like interviews or features, I'd have already purchased every luxury item that turns my head. It's something that's difficult for people to get their head around - the fact that I...

Ahh yes, finishing a room. Well, THAT never happens around here. Not in its entirety, anyway. The truth is, I'm forever adding and subtracting and swapping things around in pretty much every space in my home. For the purposes of today's post, however, I'm using that...

So first off, I wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who commented on the blog and on social media about my new pretty dining table! I'm so pleased you all seem to love it as much as I do! And while it was certainly an investment piece, I know that I'll have it...

If you've been following my blog for a while, you'll know that I LOVE a good table setting. I don't know what it is about them but getting a little creative and styling them is my jam - even when there's no real occasion. Now, over the years, I've amassed a few...

Champagne tastes with a 'Cava' budget. That's me. I seem to always fall in love with the most utterly ridiculously expensive things in shops and then baulk when I realise I'd have to take out a second mortgage to afford it. And yet that doesn't stop me fancifully...

After my blog post on Monday about my visit to Grand Pacific, I have been thinking about wow-factor spaces. Ya know the ones that as soon as you enter the room (or look at it on your screen), you get that little intake of breath? Yeah that. I have always strived for...

I am so excited today to do a little follow up on my blog post How to use Pinterest to Define Your Personal Style. In it, I shared my tips on really boiling down your ultimate style descriptor to three single words. It was only once I was able to do this myself that...

I'm a sucker for a nice little side table. I look at them all the time on various websites despite the fact I already have a couple of them at home and the even bigger fact that I don't actually need any more. I'm still tempted because they are so cute and so...

So, apparently, it's Spring here in the Northern Hemisphere. While the days are definitely longer and the sun is most certainly higher, it's still been pretty cold here the last few days so it doesn't quite feel like Spring. But there is one thing I almost always do...
