Take a Closer Look

Love these simple chairs by Resign in Italy but

if you look closer you will see that

The numbers are painted. Beautiful.

WANTED!

This fabulous 1920s Lingerie Mannequin which was on Ebay in the UK but it's gone.

Violet and George - Interior Tailors

I love how Violet & George describe themselves as Interior Tailors. When you look at their designs you can see just why.

Nendo's Moss House

I make it no secret my love of moss. I have a big stone in the garden decorated with moss I pinched from the dry stone walls around my cottage. This house puts my effort to shame with this decor. Go and see more images at Nendo in Japan

Sonia Rykiel for H&M

I heard on the grapevine that Sonia Rykiel was designing a range for H&M so I dutifully visited their website and was pleasantly suprised at the content. City streets fold up and pop up as do the models - well worth a visit.

Making a Statement With Colour

I love to enter a room and be hit in the face by that one piece of furniture that makes a great big statement. This is invariably done with a big, bold bright colour and additionally in this case a giant plant in the garden.
This house in London SW11 is a prime example of just that.

no eight - Understated in Hastings

This shop no eight - couldn't get further away from me if it tried. I am nearly in Scotland and they are nearly in France. Based in Hastings this shop stocks and may I say beautifully photographs local crafts that are simple yet stunning. Anything from Vintage Furniture to Ceramic Sheeps Heads. You can buy online though.

Maya Hansen

I think there is nothing as sexy as a corset but Maya Hansen takes it that step further by adding beautiful accessories. Love those little bloomers in the top pic.
