Hooked on: this Elegant London home

To finish this week's white theme - unplanned! Honest :), I invite your for a house tour around this elegant yet modern London home, filled with dreamy white objects.

Where I could spend hours in the bathroom, think bubble bath, classical music & scented candles

The lovely wooden floor adds warmth to the all white rooms


The entry hall is just as beautiful, although with tiles for practical reasons?

A slight change of mood when we step into the more modern parts of the house



A calm study for all those creative thoughts & money decisions?

Feeling a little tired? That's so many bedrooms to choose from...




Right at the top of the house is where the fun begins, such a cute toy room do you not agree?

Now I'm feeling less stressed, I must get back to my coursework. Can you believe during the 3 weeks Easter holiday I have done absolutely no revision - completely the opposite from the plan, and I barely started on my coursework + presentation that's due on Monday. I suppose I'm one of those that really needs the pressure in order to get anything done!!

Have a lovely & relaxing weekend my loves! xx

Oh, and more colours next week I promise :)

Hooked on: Beautiful Hallways {Interior}

Even though it's University holidays this week, somehow I'm much busier than usual. Today I have a deadline at 5pm to hand in my business marketing plan for this extra course I'm taking, and guess what? In true last minute style, I've not even started yet. So I'll leave you with these beautiful hallway interiors while I'off to write my essay...

What is more your style? A calm, fresh, natural hallway?

or something with a little more colour?

a country style perhaps?

or maybe something more elegant and classic?

I think I'd like an elegant style mixed with more white? You?

Friday today, yeah! Enjoy your lovely weekend, xx

Hooked on: A Room with a View

When you have a place with stunning ocean views like these, why spend much on decor? You have a perfect focal point right there outside, these gorgeous rooms are the perfect example. A simple clean interior with a stunning view, I certainly would not say no to this place, would you?


The dream of owning a place like this is a distant dream for me, so for the time being I will settle for a holiday similar to this in a gorgeous hotel, how about the Canaves Oia Hotel in Santorini? I'll leave you to enjoy the views...




Breakfast on terrace? Yes please! Happy Friday! Hope you'll have a relaxing weekend :)

xx

Hooked on: Colour Clashing Interiors

I am a firm believer in both colour matching and colour clashing when it comes to fashion, while matching colours are classy and chic, clashing colours are usually much more fun & adds a splash of focus to the outfit.

I have always loved white interiors with pops of colour, hence more of a matching since white is such a neutral and flexible "colour". But I am so loving these bold, busy & colour clashing rooms, I may not decorate my home similar to these but the images have definitely opened up my eyes that colour clashing in home decor can be beautiful and classy too!

I would like a mixture of the two I think, a bit of match with white as the main colour & addes some fun and colour through colour clash on the decor, picture frames, objects, pillows etc... What do you all think, to clash or match?

I'm also taking part in the Hooked on House "Friday Hoooked on Party", check out what others are hooked on here.

If you have some spare time tomorrow, make sure you come & visit, I have something new to announce, think Giveaway, Jewellery & New Series maybe? ;)

Have a lovely weekend everyone! xx

Hooked on: Vintage Linen Pillows

{Ludwigas Linen}

I have always loved all things vintage, whether it's vintage clothes, vintage typewriters or my current love vintage linen. Their simple yet elegant designs speaks to my heart, and it is also eco-chic!

{Beyond France}

How about these beauties made from old grain sacks? I just adore the design!

Hooked on: Hôtel Vernet Paris

With Valentine's Day just around the corner, it's the perfect timing for a romantic getaway post, and I bet you're not surpised to see that our destination is indeed the elegant, beautiful and one of the most romantic cities in the world - Paris.

I actually planned on doing a post on a few gorgeous hotels in Paris but when I came across the stunning Hôtel Vernet, all other hotels just disappeared from my mind, let me show you why:

The rooms are light, elegant and has a perfect mixture of modern & classical decor, it's so hard to pick a favorite but I'm loving this gorgeous blue room.

Breakfast in bed? Oh, yes please! Love the hotel already? The best is yet to come!

I was thinking what word I should use to describe the hotel's restaurant, somehow magnificent doesn't feel "big" enough!

The lounge bar has a contempory decor but still has lots of classical details, pinks, silver and white? Can it get more glamorous and romantic than this?

Looking for more ways to boost the romanticness? How about an evening stroll along The Avenue des Champs-Élysées? It's only a 3 min walk away!

Today I'm taking part in the Hooked on Friday party, I'd be just selfish to keep this little gem all to myself right? ;) check out what everyone else's hooked on here.

Have a lovely weekend everyone! xx
