beauty

words 

Quote of the Week

"Beauty holds my world together; it fulfills a need in my soul; it helps me survive. Beauty is my inspiration for my life and for my work. I find its qualities evocative, and always in its presence I pause, aware of the mysterious becoming visible." 

 - Barbara Barry

we live in such a visual world of course we are going
to be drawn to all things beautiful
















 these 3 rooms remind me of a jewellery box: beauty glamour vintage goodies

beauty is in the eye of the beholder.x

In the heart of Slovenia, in the town of Ljubljana,  lies a little piece of design jewel: Lolita.
“Occupying the former warehouse in the central historic palace in Ljubljana, Lolita gives a tribute to a tradition of cafes and the richness of living on the crossroad where one listens to a variety of »truths« while brewing one’s own at the same time.” - Arch Daily
Is there really more to be said I wonder? Nah… I am just delightfully basking in the beauty and details of this commercial decor.

young girls beach pad

Quickly did this board up for my niece...who asked for a beach look
for her bedroom
She already has an existing white chest of drawers and side table and the pink round 
rug which is in the mood board. The mirror she also has but hers is white so need
to spray paint that gold to add some pizazz...

by using bright sunny colours and jenny's artwork it gives the room that 
beach style Charli wanted 
...hope she likes it! 





Flower art
simple idea to do for your next special occasion


love a bit of flower art

beach necessities

With summer fast approaching it's important to update the gear we take
to the beach...with me it's all about the look so here are some of my fav's
for this summer at the beach


these towels are showing up everywhere from mags, to shops! Why so popular?
Turkish towels/hamamas are a light weight towel, super absorbent and fast drying
all bonus's for when going to the beach and they get softer the more you wash....
still not sold on them... they can be used as a table cloth, throw, sarong etc
Super stylish



the bag i would look no further then the queen of beach gear --tigerlily


Tigerlily’s Abbaca bag is made from 100% hand woven abbaca in the most striking mixture of colours. Great sized beach bag or large shopping bag. $99.95.
Tigerlily’s Bahia beach bag it is a nice medium sized bag. It is made from 100% jute straw and lined with organic cotton- yum! $79.95.

tomorrow i will share some more key items for this summer to help you stay looking
fabulous on the beach...x
