    A Cosy Stockholm Flat in Tones of Pink, Ochre and Green

    October 19, 2023 - By 

    I love it when I stumble across an entirely unique home – full of interesting colours, furniture and details. And this is one of those. Looking at the decor, there are certain clues that tell us the owners love scouring antique and second-hand stores, books and nature. They’re also not afraid to break the rules, follow their heart and add playful, personal touches. And that’s what I love about this living space.  Third of white and grey? You’re going to love this tour!  In Stockholm space is of a premium and you can spend a fortune on even the minuscule…

    This IKEA pink bed frame is the ultimate Barbie-inspired buy

    July 14, 2023 - By 

    Our favourite budget flat-pack hero, IKEA, is selling a Barbie-inspired bed that we’re kind of obsessed with – and it won’t be around for long so if it’s caught your eye like it has us, you better act quickly. With the release of the Barbie movie fast approaching, releasing in cinemas on the 21st of July, it’s pretty hard to go anywhere without hearing the words ‘Barbiecore’ within a mile radius. It seems like everybody is finally honing in on their obsession with pink, and we have to admit, we love it. It’s safe to say that pink is definitely…
