I can’t believe Christmas is just a month away. I’ve been so busy that I was beginning to resign to the fact that, this year, there will be no Winter cosy at home. That all changed when The White Company sent me my first Christmas gift of the season, my very […]

Halloween with Balloon time
As the clocks went back this Sunday, that Autumn Winter feeling crept in. Even though I am a Summer person, there is still something endearing about the cold season. I say, let’s not mourn the loss of Summer. Let’s welcome Autumn and Winter in with open arms. Halloween to me is also one of […]

Colourful Christmas gift ideas from Suki McMaster. (2015)
Colourful Christmas gift ideas? I’m really getting ahead of myself aren’t I? But no, this is my attempt at organisation. Although big oops!

London Fashion weekend 2015 & interiors inspiration.
Does Fashion inspire the colour trends in interiors or is it vice versa? It’s that egg and chicken argument. Who is the trailblazer? I have an inkling, although I am not privy to information, that it is a collective movement. The coming together of industry experts to tease out what the new […]
Colour inspiration in Datca, Turkey with Rozenkelim.
The kids were back at school, the Winter coats were now seeing light out of storage and I was back to the daily grinds of work. Summer had truly drawn to a close. In stepped the lovely owners of Rozenkelim, to my rescue from the Autumn blues, with an invite to their sunny villa […]
