Our Timeless Home Style with Furniture That Lasts #OriginalDesign

If you read my blog or follow me on Instagram you’ll know that I like fashion, I’m a little bit beauty obsessed and food is up there in the top five loves of my life. But – interiors and styling up my home is my one true love!

Ever since we bought our first ‘proper’ home just over a year ago it’s been full steam ahead to make this little Victoria terrace our dream place to live. After almost 5 years of renting and looking after other people’s magnolia or white-washed walls it was time for us to release our personality into our home life. Although I think our rooms are pretty funky –  they have their own themes as you walk through the house, I think I’ve created a basis of timeless style that can grow and develop with us as a couple and in the future, a family.

Our Kitchen Makeover – Before & After

A year after moving into our house, our kitchen is ready to be seen by the internet! When we moved in we were dealing with a really dated kitchen, matching floor and cupboards in the same wood, a grotty sink I won’t even show you because it was so stained and broken tiles with painted wallpaper.

The entire experience can prove emotionally and financially draining, but there are definitely ways to reduce the strain of the process. Let’s talk about how you could start protecting your sanity, money, and time when moving home. Read More

I wanted to share three of my favourite styles for a little bit of interiors inspiration in case you’re decorating or looking for some style inspiration that isn’t ‘all grey everything’.

The modern Christmas table

Christmas is definitely coming to my house… We’re whipping up the actual Christmas dinner this year (eek!) and I’ve wanted to make the house feel really Christmassy and the table super glam and festive without being a Christmas cliche. Enter, Next and their amazing circular pom pom trimmed placemats. They look awesome against a bit of kitsch tinsel and some snazzy matching beer bottles with some stand out branding. Yellow is definitely a fresh colour to give to Christmas, I think it’s quite unusual but works really well with gold which is obviously a classic. Read More
