inspiration: i found these two pieces of raw, abstract art called “revolution b and sanctum mixed media” by richard nott recently. they’ve been the kind of inspiration you just have to keep going back to admire because it’s all you can think about. they sparked my creativity for a cool industrial interior moodboard
palette: chalk board paint from b&q, white linen from ada & ina, geometries wallpaper from callidus guild, black tile from the winchester tile company, slate tray from zara home, concrete (make your own) from wickes, white tiles from fired earth, barn wood from victoria luxury flooring.
interior: linen duvet from h&m, fabric cord cable from eastern collective, string shelving from utility, blanket from ikea, candle holder from kibisi, cassina armchair from nest, cast iron radiator from castrads, plumen pendent and bulb from plumen, palette coffee table from made.com.
blackest of black inspiration for your saturday night.
following on from my previous wishlist post with luxury shopping, i’ve been browsing john lewis and come across some beauts!
one: i love these kurt geiger wedge ‘jelly’ shoes. not sure they’d be going out material but they’d definitely work for bbq’s in summer! they come in black, white and nude, perfect. two: mulberry have always been a bloggers favourite bag but (sorry girls) i hated the alexa so much. it’s was too ‘indie’ for my liking, whereas this one is right up my street! this is the mulberry north south maisie tote, with seamless black hardware it’s simple and big enough for everything. three: eventhough winter was the season for dark lips, there aren’t rules, right? this beaut from nars is a soft matte lipstick called ‘volga’, which on the website sadly doesn’t show the correct colour; but it’s a rich velvet berry which seems buildable for day and night time wear. four: i think dkny have some of the best perfumes. their women eau de parfum sounds so fresh. a floral scent with orange, tomato leaf and white birch, nice and refreshing.
white snake chain, topshop. minimal jewellery by “>lumo: silver bar chain & hex nut bracelet.
i recently won a voucher for lumo jewellery from the lovely stephanie toms at cocochic – thank you lady. it took me quite a while to chose what to purchase, their store is full of minimal pieces! the silver bar chain my favourite, it’s very delicate and brings a simple outfit together without overpowering. they have a pair of small hoop earrings that i’m very tempted to purchase next month! the topshop chain was a surprise to find in topshop, so i grabbed it without really thinking about it. £12.50 on a chain that snaps together with a magnet probably wasn’t the wisest choice i’ve made, but it looks lovely and i can see it being my new go to.
