With the clocks changing last weekend and the days growing noticeably shorter, it’s always the perfect time of year to settle in and snuggle down. To relieve a little of the pressure we feel during summer. To always be out and about making the most of the sunshine, or cooking dinner alfresco or driving down...

Whilst I’m sure we haven’t even seen the worst of it, this time of year brings with it rain, wind, drizzle and bitter temperatures. I feel I always say this, but it seems we’ve missed the best bits of autumn again this year. We’ve not nearly had enough of those cold, crisp days. When you...

At work this week, we just happened to get onto the subject of comparison. I’m sure it’s the same in many workplaces – that you tend to be on similar paths as those you work with. Some may be married or getting married, looking to buy their first home or decorating it, hoping to start...

I can’t say I’ve dabbled in it too much, but the many stylish people I follow and like on Instagram or that I pin on Pinterest do it wonderfully. Whether it’s leopard print with cheetah print, or stripes with polka dots, clashing prints seem to work when they really shouldn’t.  It almost goes against everything...

There seems to be a real movement recently – both in fashion and interiors – for simple, soft neutrals and lots of texture.  In interiors especially, it’s a far cry from the slightly clinical, more Scandi-inspired trends we were seeing a few years ago where rose gold took precedence and stark white Ikea furniture seemed...

I came across a new term earlier this week that I hadn’t heard before. Normcore. It’s a modern ‘fashion’ trend that has been making waves recently and becoming more and more popular. A term said to be coined in 2013 after it appeared in K-Hole’s first issue, “Youth Mode”, it essentially means: someone who wears...
