INTERIOR | multifunction






I got these gold contemporary candleholders and large bowl for Christmas. They are from a Danish brand called By Lassen, and are made from brass.
The products speak for themselves: modern, minimal and industrial.

However, I wanted to talk about the multifunctional use of the products rather then the design. It’s easy to use something, how you’re told too, although sometimes you can adapt and improve things to suit your personal needs.

Removing the bowl from the cubed frame to stand alone making it less dominant and easier to access. (It’s currently filled with Lint chocolates)
Placing a marble slab on the top creates a perfect platform to create more desk space and the cube frame can also be used to frame a vase or plant in the past and when removing the candles the holders can also be used at platforms and stands. 

I love arranging my table tops with these products the compositions are endless.

INTERIOR | plant cylinders


Im so sorry I haven't blogged for what feels like years! But it's my new years resolution to start again. There are so many DIY's and new interior pieces I have made and purchased so there are no excuses.

I brought these three glass vases AGES ago from ikea. They are one of the best things I brought all year as they are so versatile, at first I placed all odd green and white wild like flowers in them which looked so cute in the hall way. However I fancied doing something more modern and permanent.

Living a 10 min walk away from Colombia Road flower market is so so great, I tend to go every Sunday and everything is pretty cheap! Which is where I purchased these cactuses.

vase cylinders x3 | £15.00

PLACES | sky garden








On Saturday, Sunny and I started our day 35 floors high. We went to visit the Sky Garden which is literally a green garden in the sky. It is FULL of palm tress and the architecture design is simple but stunning. There's something super modern about the curved glass. The view of London was the best I have ever seen. To book your free visit click here.

INTERIOR | marble w/ glass sink









 Victor Vasilev is a  architect and designer whom seeks formal and material purity. This purity of form, we find in his sink Kub playing with straight lines, the transparency of glass and the strength of marble, making it virtually invisible useful object. I love every single one.

ACCESSORIES | watch





Iv needed an every day watch ever since the Ibiza incident. I normally go for gold but have recently swapped for silver. I was sick of having tarnished rings and as sterling silver is so much cheaper then gold, purchasing a large number of rings was more accessible.

I had to get a Larsson & Jennings. It's the most simple and modern yet classic watch currently on the market. The thinness of the face and the 'gentleman's' strap are was incised me in.

PLACES | ACNE Archive





So, I graduated today.... Meaning I'm back on the blog. After accepting a job at Harvey Nichols back in March, continuing to work with Zoe Jordan and House of Sunny along with completing my final three months of University and maintaing some kind of social life, I just couldn't find the time to blog. Plus the last thing I wanted to do at the end of a day was continue to write/edit on a computer!

However from my last exam in June, till now, I have seen, brought and been to plenty of places to tell you lot about, and number one on my list is the Acne Archive Store.

Sunny took me to Stockholm for my Birthday this year, and after receiving the plane tickets with my birthday card on June 6 I began my research. I read mixed reviews about the Acne Archive store and gathered it was all about timing and luck. Knowing it was the end of the season I was hoping for the best.

The store was small and discrete yet when in side it felt spacious. There was plenty of sizes to choose from and an amazing denim wall. They had a large mixture of different seasons and sold accessories, shoes and clothes with about 70% off and the staff couldn't have been more stylish and helpful if they tried.  What more would you want?

ACCESSORIES | gold grill

If you follow me on Instagram you are probably aware I wore this gold grill as part of my Holloween costume back in October. This gold grill has now become my favourite item of jewellery.

I don't wear it often but it can complete a basic outfit perfectly. The fact it has no jewels or details and is hardly noticeable makes it discrete and minimal. Sadly I'm still yet to get the boys approval.

I got this gold plated one on eBay. It comes with a self mould kit. (new obi)

grill | £11.50
