Style Direction

Does your style direction wax and wane? Do you know what your 'style' is? I feel like I'm drawn to different styles constantly.

Lately I love to see spaces filled with glamour and neutrals but I also love rooms that have a rustic feel and I am habitually drawn to the feminine touches of colour...

But what I really love is spaces that balance all of these factors, these are the rooms that take my breath away!

My favourite heart stopping deal breakers:

The feminine chic touch of orchids in any room
Lots of white
Trims and accents of black
Shots of pink or purple
Chunks of amethyst
Faux fur
White or pink roses
Pattern: pretty in pinks, animal always, black and white stripes and dots
Gold frames and accents

Look and love dear readers...

I'm a bit stripe obsessed at the moment. I really need a striped wall in my life... or a massive striped rug... or curtains with a really thick stripe... the bolder the better I'm loving it!

I think it is the fact that it is a bold pattern but still classic and neutral, it can literally go with any style, it grounds bright colours, warms up whites and balances feminine touches. I'm gushing now.. I think it's love x

Sunday Inspiration - Jones Design Company

I have had a lovely Sunday afternoon with my feet up reading the inspirational blog Jones Design Company. Emily is an extremely talented mum of four, stationery designer and has a beautiful home. You must check out her blog, she has a shop and the tutorials are great - especially the 'wallpaper' painting tutorial - so clever!

Inspiration - Jessica Thomas Design

 While having a read of the wonderfully uplifting blog House of Turquoise, I came across Erin's post featuring the turquoise rooms of Jessica Thomas. I instantly recognised a few of the shots which have come up again and again in blogland, especially the hallway with that gorgeous wallpaper! So I went over to Jessica's website and found more inspirational roomsets in her portfolio...

Her style is definitely right up my alley! What I think I love most is the way she layers the room with pretty vignettes and objects trouve, bringing interest and character to a room. Do you agree or do you think minimal is best? What style sums you up?

Have a great weekend x
