Let the weekend begin

Here's to making the most of what's left of summer. For my overseas readers, Spring is sort of in the air!

East To Eden

Stamp of approval

I love this idea to bits: an all-British floor rug, hanging on the wall. Just imagine it in black and white?

Too great to be walked all over...

Stamp Rugs

Some of my handiwork...

Here's a shoot I styled before I left my post at SHOP Til You Drop mag last year, which I stumbled upon last night over at The Decorista. Each month, I got the lucky task of going into a celeb/designer/artist's home to style it for the mag. It was by far, one of the things I loved most about my job.

Fashion designer Rachel Gilbert was a doll, and her label isn't too bad either...

Warning! This post contains serious colour candy

If you're a beige and taupe kind of girl, you may not necessarily dig his style, but I think you can appreciate it. Welcome to the outrageously colourful home of Mr Jonathan Adler.
Check out the orange!






My Mod Style

What a way to end the week!

I was just about to wrap up my daily round of blog snooping when I decided to pay a long-overdue visit to decor8 and gosh balls am I glad I did because it's where I discovered Kelly Wearstler's NEW! blog, My Vibe My Life. It's going to be bigger than Ben Hur.

Out-there Orange

It's a fact, orange accents boost your mood by *87.6%.* Scroll down for proof...

Nesting Newbies

*Slight exaggeration. It's probably more like 81.6 %.

Happy Hump Day

Right now, it's about 997 degrees outside. Kidding. It's more like 40. To survive this heat wave, me thinks I'm going to need to buy a canoe. Just like this one.

Love Match

Not sure about you, but predictable day-of-loving gifts, read: red roses, teddy bears and heart-shaped balloons, make me queasy. If I had my way, everyone the world over would be getting one, or all of these treats delivered to them on February 14th. It's not that far off, you know?

1. 'For Like Ever' print because unlike a box of soft-centred chocolates, you will keep it for... like, ever. Cupid can BUY IT FOR YOU HERE.

2. A message in a bottle, like this one that you can keep adding to each year. You can buy it for your someone-special,HERE.

3. Cheeky and light-hearted, you can stock up on more dry/witty/funny/ridiculous prints just like this one, HERE.

4. For the many cosy nights in on the lounge together that lie ahead. It's from the worlds most loveable designer, Jonathan Adler, so naturally you're going to love it, too.

Currently craving: bookends

I've got a serious soft spot for bookends and this set from Anthropologie had me at hello. If only I hadn't spent like crazy in Hawaii...
