Original moldings, high ceilings, chevron wooden floórs, a large mirror, and a beautifully ornamented fireplace. - what more can one possibly want from an interior?

Thanks for stopping by, dear reader, I appreciate your visit(s). You are the best readers any blogger could ask for.

British Impressions III

More snapshots of some of the places I shopped in London. You probably recognise Anthropologie and Liberty (I had to go as per my friend's request). Sadly, I left Liberty without one of the lovely scarfs. One can never have too many scarves, right? There is always next time as London is a mere 2h20min away from Paris.

I loved the beautiful flower shop in the 4th photo. And the staff were so friendly. The interior design was gorgeous and the smell simply devine.

I took this last photo (below) purely for the fun slogan:

'Don't follow fashion, buy something already out of date'.

Rustic kitchen

Here is wishing everybody a good start into the week!

I like the bohemian vibes of this rustic kitchen. Using simple untreated wood can be a cheap way to disguise a standard kitchen. I also like the idea of mounting a desk lamp on the wall. 

Emily's world

I am a huge fan of British stylist Emily Chalmers and was delighted when she kindly sent me some photos of her wonderful home to share with you.  I am offically in love with her wonderfully eclectic home in London. Oh, and her fabric and shoe collections rock!

Guest post: Home & Garden fair

Hello, dear Readers! I am guest blogging over at The Modern Sybarite (if this isn't a cool name for a blog, what is!). I blogged about my recent trip to Hamburg, Germany to the Home & Garden fair. 

Check it out!

 A Swedish fireplace must be pure bliss.

 I want this Louis Vuitton trunk badly!

This cute bench fits on a balcony 

As you know I can never resist a lion.

British Impressions II

Here is the promised second part of my trip to Britain. Thanks to my friend O. who kindly lended me his camera as mine ran out of battery, I could continue taking photos for you.

I could spend all day taking photos of the cute terrace houses, honestly.
