White Character

It's been a while since I posted about an almost pure white interior right? Fear not, here it is! :)

The combination of antique/vintage furniture and white walls just work so well together.

ps, I did an interview here about how I opened my shop {luphia}, have a read if you're interested :)

Glamorous Venice

I have got into the habit of kicking start a new week with a glamorous fashion editorial, especially when it's grey. Although I would mind the grey sky much less if I was spending my day in Venice!




and although not very much related to the editorial, I just love the colours!


{all from Net-a-porter.com}

I'm off to London to do some site seeing with my uncles family, which is quite exciting as even though my home is 40 mins from London, I have never done a proper tour!

----------------------------------------------------------------
Oh, I also want to say a massive thank you to the paper n stitch blog for selecting this blog to be their Blog of the Week, I'm truley honored!

Pretty Collages

How pretty are these collages? Old book pages, wallpaper plus the most adorable illustrations, the combination is certainly a winner!!

Have a wonderful weekend! I'm going home (near London) for a week and will probably be doing a lot of sightseeing next week as my uncle's family is visiting the UK from Canada!
