Happy New Year! I’m starting 2016 with an interiors post. Every year, I spend the Christmas holidays decluttering. Do you do that too? It’s my way of announcing a fresh start. Once I finish, I get that urge to redecorate, to create a new look in my home. Maybe it’s just my desire to say goodbye to […]
I knew I couldn’t stay away from the blog till after the new year. I have been bursting to tell you about my press trip during early December with Jo, Jacintha, Jess and Christina to Augustine in Prague, a Luxury Collection hotel. This was the amazing sight of the hotel as we […]
It’s 2 more days till Christmas, and I have just started my short break from hospital work, for the festive period. December has been very busy for me in all aspects, including blogging. So much to write about in so little time. My new Dell XPS13 has been a saviour. Whenever I travel, I […]
Recently, I was asked by Modern Rugs UK to pick my trend predictions for rugs as we go into 2016. I was given a choice from their 5 key interiors trends and I picked ‘Inspired by Nature’. 2015 saw the popularity of outdoor greenery being brought indoors. There was certainly an explosion of […]
It is officially one more week to Christmas! Are we all calm or has the panic for gift buying set in? I remember those nights, when I would lie awake in bed, planning out the quirky cool gifts that I would give for Christmas. I have concluded that with limited time, rather than procrastinate, […]
Christmas is now 9 days away. I say let the celebrations begin! Many of you, like me, may be doing that last minute mad dash to the shops. Don’t get me wrong, I do love online shopping for its convenience, but nothing beats stepping out to get that special gift and […]
No sooner have I finished one festive table setting, I’m now on to the next! I simply couldn’t resist when I saw the Boden Homewares collection. Boden is a brand I genuinely hold close to my heart. My children grew up wearing Boden and they still do now. I certainly have […]
I am so honoured to be one of the 12 bloggers specially selected by West Elm UK and Teri of The Lovely Drawer to style up a Christmas table as part of The 12 days of Christmas project. I am Day 12, the final day. You can also follow an interview I did with […]
Hello all, Christmas is only 3 weeks away! By looking at this picture, you must think how organised I am with a room looking so festive. If only! This was my son’s room last year. I really need to get my act together this year to create some festive magic […]
It is an honour to be asked by Pantone this year to announce their Colours of The Year for 2016 on the blog. Yes, you heard right. It’s not just one colour but it’s a pairing of colours. I have kept this secret knowledge for weeks and have been bursting to tell […]
At the start of the holiday season, I always turn to my favourite brands for Christmas gift buying. Kate Spade NY is one of my all time favourite brands ( Say I, with the huge colourful collection of Kate Spade handbags!) The thing is, there is no such thing as […]
It’s Winter, it’s dark and it’s cold outside, but I never let that bother me. I have my very own Spring and Summer cheer indoors. Pretty shades of blush with brass metal foil for instant warmth. Thanks to Howkapow for sending me this wonderful Harbour 1 print by Tom Pigeon.But wait! There is […]
