Autumn Interiors

Autumn Interiors

I am literally a walking advert for Autumn, my wardrobe, branding and home.   I love the deep Autumn colours, such as slate greys, burgundy reds, and indigo blues; jewel tones and dark, moody neutrals.     We could never have imagined this time last year, just how much time we would actually…

Lockdown Zoom Ideas (that work)

At the beginning of lockdown, one of the few things I was actually quite optimistic about was the 'new' way of socialising.  The thought of not having to dress up, buy bad wine or have to leave the house to socialise was actually something to be joyful about.   However, after…

To mood board or not to mood board

Sneak a Peek via Open Houses

Sneak a Peek via Open Houses

This month's Where To, takes us to an open house or two.   One thing I definitely got from my mother is a need to nose around other people's houses.   I actually never tire of it, and if this all doesn't work out, I am off to be an estate agent.…
