Merry Christmas Everyone!

It's official! Christmas is finally here. Having as many ups as it's had downs, 2017 has definitely been a bumpy journey, but here we all are sitting happy and gracefully at the end. 

The date that marks the end of my year every year, is this Christmas breakfast with my best friend Séarlait. Every year we arrange to meet, catch up and just spend the morning together eating (haha a huge sorry to my body weight). And this year I ordered breakfast pancakes, fruit and of course the usual. Hot chocolate! 

I hope everyone was able to successfully get their Christmas shopping, gift giving and good deeds out of the way, because tomorrow marks the one day of the year where its legal to sit down and do absolutely nothing. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

Hello Everyone

Taking contrast and whiteness into consideration, Webber + Studio produced this beautiful 4 person household home in Austin that features white cladding, a view of the wonderful surrounding landscape at all times, and amazing double height ceilings. The simplicity of the poured concrete flooring along with the glazed walls really helps with giving this home the rustic 'unfinished' look. With concrete being one of my favourite building materials, for me, the flooring is the finishing touch throughout this whole interior. Home sweet home!

Hello Everyone

Last week I had to run a few errands, and by checking the weather forecast I noticed that it was way too cold to leave my house with just one layer on. As I mentioned in a recent post, I really want to try again with layering this winter (read it here). And with the UK being extremely cold lately, it would've been a death wish to leave in just a jumper haha. So I constructed an outfit with my favourite colours for the winter/autumn, and my favourite items in general. 

Those of you who have been reading my blog for a long time, know that I love this scarf and it is pulled out the weather hits anywhere near 2 degrees (hahha its true) and it has been one of the best things that I have purchased from COS (similar here), along with this coat from GAP (similar here). Then I just decided to finish off the look with a turtleneck from UNIQLO, my favourite navy jumper and these super cute trousers from GAP.

Hello Everyone

December is finally here!! Which means its (FINALLY) time for Christmas. The only time of the year where it's acceptable to ask for a hot chocolate with every meal and to sing 'All I want for Christmas' from the moment you wake up. There's a slight chill in the air and it's too much of a risk to leave the house without more than 2 layers on. So for this month, I once again want to experiment with layering and a multitude of different textures. Leaving me with nothing but excitement for the whole month! Forget advent calendars, the daily treat is finding new comfortable and layered outfits!

Hello Everyone

Taking how children usually draw houses into consideration, with their straight lines and internationally know roofing. Filipe Saravia was able to make such a beautiful and extremely modern take on the traditional housing shape. The wood and the black concrete sitting against such a natural setting and blue sky definitely helps in making this project a new favourite of mine. The lighting and how the interior is in complete contrast to the exterior is design executed perfectly.

Hello Everyone 

On Thursday, my friends and I took a trip to our local park, and I couldn't help but think about how Autumn is slowly becoming one of my favourite seasons. The colours, the coldness in the air and the opportunity to dress warmer in scarves gloves and hats. They all offer you something and give me the hope of a fresh start/beginning. So with recently buying this new trench coat, I really want to check out how I would style it with the current weather and I really like how this outfit turned out.
