More celebrity shoots
last week we shot all the new images for Kersaint Cobb. I was working with the fantastic Jon Day; he’s such a great photography and always captures a stunning image. We were lucky enough to be shooting at LordshipPark, so thank you to Sarah & Brian for being so relaxed.

Trend: Colonial charm
On January 25th, 2012 by Meghan Plowman.
A a stylist, I am always drawn in by beautifully detailed and authentic sets. I take delight in absorbing the way a room is designed and always appreciate the styled accessories sitting on side tables, as well as photos and paintings on walls, all of which are there to help tell the story. I get quite excited [...]
Maison & Object 2012
On January 20th, 2012 by Pippa Jameson.
Finally arrived in Paris after quite a hairy journey. My taxi driver was driving at about 90 through Paris and there was I thinking that he was going to crash – and he did! He drove straight into the side of a golf and dented their door, he got out of the car, exchanged a [...]

Our guide to buying a new mattress
On November 29th, 2011 by Pippa Jameson.
Ok, so what’s the score with mattresses? I am trying to convince my husband that we need a new bed and therefore a new mattress ;0) I can understand his hesitation as they are not cheap, but, they are definitely worth the investment.

Wreaths are definitely one of my favourite Christmas decorations, the perfect way to dress up a spare wall space or hang on your front door to mark the festive season.
