MOOD BOARD | IN LOVE WITH GREY

14 January 2015

I’m going to continue the monochrome theme today with grey which has always been a bit of a favourite colour for me. It’s so flattering in clothing and interiors as it provides a great backdrop and base for pops of colour.

Last week I came across Cereal founder and editor Rosa Parks article of The Graham & Co and fell in love with the look of this small boutique hotel in the Catskills, a mere 100 miles north of New York City.

Perfectly located for hiking, fishing and skiing the hotel describes itself as a modern take on the classic weekend getaway. It is run by four friends who all have a background in design and fashion which accounts for the simple modern rustic styling of the rooms. Rosa’s shot of the branded grey blanket above gives you a flavour of the hotel’s laid back and comfortable style. Check out their website for more details.

Hello y’all, did you have a good Christmas break!? We had a lovely relaxing and super cozy time at home with the kiddos. Open fires, lovely food and some more baking – this time with just one of the two little lions which was a bit more relaxing than the previous experience [you can read about it here].

The break was a great opportunity to recharge batteries which will be running on full power in the next few days as we’re moving home. Eek! Despite the obvious upheaval and my fear of mess I’m quite looking forward to settling into a new place and it seems appropriate to start the new year with a clean slate. Cross your fingers the good ol tinternet will be switched over tomorrow as promised. Yeah, right! #modernproblems #donttrustutilitiescompanies

A CHRISTMAS WEEKEND IN BATH

Oh, how I enjoyed my much needed girlie break last weekend in Bath to visit one of my besties. It is the perfect place to get into the Christmas spirit and our trip has by now become somewhat of a tradition, along with plenty of shopping, mulled wine, good food and general tomfoolery.

The mostly Georgian architecture is stunning and there’s a great array of independent shops, bars and cafes – though if you ask the locals it’s getting way too ‘chainy’ in the last couple of years. The main attraction this time of year is the Christmas market and the ever expanding ‘chalet’ which puts you straight into apres ski mood. If you don’t care for glitz, flashing lights and Christmas tat Bath is (still) the place to go.

We were lucky that Saturday was a proper winters day; freezing but gloriously sunny and perfect for a walk in the countryside. We visited a local food festival at Great Chalfield Manor and had a bit of a Downton Abbey experience in the Great Hall with champagne, carol singers, a roaring fire and lots of stag heads lined up on the wall. Interesting how this quintessential English way of life just carries on into the 21st century.

If you enjoy my snaps from the weekend you can always follow along on Instagram.

DANISH CHRISTMAS COTTAGE

17 December 2014

I’ve been drawn to modern rustic Danish Christmas decor on my Pinterest and Instagram accounts and simply have to share this amazing home with you today. It’s the weekend cottage of creative director Betina Stampe who founded the Danish homewares company Bloomingville.

Her festive style is simple and monochrome with lots of glass and natural textures like branches, wood and pine cones. As Bloomingville’s creative director she likes to add something new and different every year and has very subtly added little hints of ‘hot pink’ to this year’s decor.

I absolutely love these glimpses of her home and could curl up quite happily in front of her fire. The earthy tones and textures of rugs, throws, baskets, bowls and furniture make the place feel really warm and inviting and supports the unique Bloomingville style – a mixture of raw products with a nostalgic Scandinavian twist.

Interestingly, Betina likes to take all her festive decorations down shortly after Christmas and welcome Spring inside with lots of pastel accessories as well as hyacinths and tulips. An idea I might adopt myself this year as we’re moving shortly after Crimbo.
