Weekend Wish List...grey & yellow

On July 13th, 2012 by .

Hello lovelies, continuing with my obsession of grey and mustard, I’ve put together the following colour scheme.  I am a big fan of armchairs and chaises in the bedroom, as it’s good to sit and unwind in a room other than the lounge, the chairs below look so comfortable; the perfect place to loose yourself in a good book. The bold rug is on trend, echoing our love for all things geometric, whilst the carafe and lighting are Scandinavian by design.  Last but not least, I am in love with this Lazy Days bed – #want!

Beautiful Bloomingville

On June 25th, 2012 by .

I have just been sorting through all of my press releases and brochures from BlogTourNYC (which are now 3 months old!) and found myself glued to the A/W Bloomingville collection.  The fast growing wholesale company is based in Denmark and produces product for the home and garden.  Their products are a mixture of scandi, french and industrial vintage and I LOVE it all!! This company works for me on so many levels; the originality, style, affordability, and ethical views are all to be commended.  Contact Bloomingville directly to find your nearest stockist.

Creative displays by Pippa Jameson

On April 23rd, 2012 by .

Last month, I worked on a great shoot with photographer Jemma Watts, looking at creative ways to display pictures and home accessories, using a selection of 3M’s Command products.

When it comes to wall displays you don’t have to stick to conventional set-ups, think about what you are hanging and try to have a little fun. Our styled collection has a retro feel, with most of the items having been up-cycled or restored. We started by painting the wall in a rich grey, this created the perfect backdrop to the punchy reds and bright mustard. It may not be your obvious choice for the wall, but this demonstrates that with the right light and accessories, slate grey can look striking and above all, warm.

My favourite item is the handmade peg rail which has been made from old yard sticks, genius. We used the Command picture hanging strips to attach it to the wall, just make sure you check the weight of the products against the back of the Command packet. All products wall are from the fabulous Home Barn, they sell a mixture of home accessories that have been lovingly restored and transformed into very cool and individual pieces.

BlogTour NYC: Part 3

On April 18th, 2012 by .

My BlogTour trip to New York seems like a distant memory, but there are still lots of fantastic pictures to share with you.  Below are some images from the fabulous D&D building (Decoration & Design).  Housing some of the world’s most sought after Interior companies, the D&D building is home to 130 premier showrooms with over 20,000 design and architectural professionals passing through each month. The building also offers cutting edge programming including; events, exhibitions, a design concierge service as well as the famed chef and restaurateur Charlie Palmer’s ASTRA cafe.


This was the stunning mosaic outside the D&D building.  As well as the
gorgeous furniture and home accessories, each floor housed the most incrediable artwork

Just some of the beautiful fabrics at Scube Design, Anichini and de Le Cuona


Two of my favourite design pieces, both Lorin Marsh.  The chair is a modern interpretation
of Japanese design, taking elements such as the signature lacquer finish and transforming it into a
21st Century chair

Wishing the chair could be mine…

I fell in love with this floor standing lamp from Fortuny and just look at the rest of their showroom (below).
The lights are original, salvaged from an old industrial factory.

Andrew, Arianna & Kate checking to see if they have Wi-fi!!

As you can image the Donghia showroom was stunning, think silks, texture and luxury.

Architectural Digest Home Design Show 2012

On March 28th, 2012 by .

What a fantastic week we have had in New York for BlogTourNYC, the people, gorgeous interior products and to top it off, the weather was beautiful!  I am going to start my blogging marathon with a round up of my favourite products from the Architectural Digest Home design Show.  Having never visited a trade show in America, I wasn’t sure what to expect when I arrived, and I wasn’t dissapointed.  There was a real mix of styles and trends for me to explore, from modern streamline kitchens right through to Traditional and Country style accessories.

A favourite of mine from the show was BDDW, who combine raw elements, including woood and leather to create handcrafted and contemporoary pieces including; beds, tables, seating, lamps & storage.  Each piece is lovingly hand rubbed iwth natural oils and lacquer.

Vintage inspiration

On December 5th, 2011 by .

The following images are from the blog, ‘My Shabby Streamside Studio’, and belong to the talented Sandra Foster.  Her pure and simple style is breathtaking, combining white on white interiors with pretty vintage accessories.

Tips on vintage styling:
- Use old medicine bottles as vases, clear glass look best.
- Use old french linen as a tablecloth, embroidered edging looks super cute.
- Hang vintage bags on door knobs or if you have one, on the corner of your metal bedstead.
- Shabby chic some old pine chairs, take a look at our guide on ‘How to Shabby Chic furnitre’.
- White metal bird cages are still a firm favourite, try filling one with tea-lights and hang it above your dining table as a feature light.
