Pink Pretties

After cruising around Pinterest for way too much time this morning I found some gorgeous new pink pretties to enjoy.Stunning pink pearls
How's this for a vintage style pink hat!


Gotta love pink handbags especially when embellished with flowers



Is it a skirt or shorts? Shorts of all colours and patterns are in this summer.



Pink lemonade anyone?










The prettiest crepe paper roses with a tutorial. Well worth the visit.






Such a fun variety of ways to display the flowers. Just beautiful!



Little girls table with a difference.


Love the contrast of the pinks against the burlap colour.



Couldn't resist the stunning use of pink here. I have a chair just like that one. Perhaps thats what I should do in my daughters room. She's pink mad. She also has this bed. We still have a few available in our online boutique.


Hope you enjoy this indulgence in pink. I know I did whilst collecting them.


Have a happy, pink weekend!

Madame Pompadour Exquisite Candles

Recently I launched my new range of "EverydayIndulgences" and to begin with I featured these exquisite candles from Pompadour.They were inspired from Madame Pompadour, a woman who embraced luxury, aesthetics and indulgence simply to please her soul.
I feel the same way that beautiful things in everyday life can be very soothing to the soul.


But these candles not only look fabulous but smell divine.


Each candle is represented by a name and a different coloured ribbon.



( Bliss- Honeysuckle and lotus leaf)

The boxes are a divine blue with the most beautiful silver detailing, a perfect keepsake


I have so many favourites. The white one is "Delight"-White jasmine and Pine Needle- delicate, beautiful and pure.


I also love the sweetness of "Rhapsody"- Pomegranite and Patchouli-mmm Fruity, refreshing and spontaneous



The candles are made from 100% natural soy wax, the healthy alternative to traditional paraffin for both ourselves and the environment.

I have them now available on my website so if you feel like indulging in divine fragrances you will love these candles.

Bliissful Blues

To many people blue is soft and peaceful but to me it also makes my heart sing!These pretty blue cupcakes are works of art.
I was totally smitten with this elegant addition of blue under the curtain.


Stunning use of blue vases make a striking table centre.


Atlanta Bartlet adds blue to her white interiors.


French furniture looks fabulous with complementing fabrics using a toille to perfection.








Wouldnt this exquisite blue chaise lounge beckon for a time to relax in our busy world.


Beautiful love seat is paired with a collection of gilded frames. Just perfect for adding grandeur to a french home.


Stripes are alawys eyecatching and these silk ones look very inviting.



A pretty blue tin is not wasted when enjoyed with these perfect, pink flowers.




Gorgeous glass heart would be a striking addition to a simple outfit.

Perfectly, pretty bunting so easily made with pretty papers or fabric folded over on each other on string.



So many lovely ways to enjoy the magic of blue in our lives every day!

How about you? Does blue make your heart sing?

Who Loves Peter Alexander?

I do !!

This is my favourite from the new catalogue fresh out of the letterbox. I think I would like to wear it as a dress or over leggings. Quite vintage in style.

And how about these slippers. They are plastic. Perhaps they could go outside too. I think i'll be visiting Peter quite soon.

Im on holidays this week and I am oh so enjoying them. Beautiful weather, happy children playing cricket next door, planting new trees and enjoying the magic of nature. And lets not forget luxurious sleepins and many skinny cappucinos. Hope your having fun too where-ever you are.
