Giuliana & Bill Rancic's New Home {Inspired}

I am a massive dorky fan of Giuliana & Bill Rancic's reality show, the couple recently welcomed little baby Duke into their family, his little nursery is fantastic, I love the nautical undertones and subdued colours, not to mention the convex mirror and Octopus print (From her first LA apartment)

I love the large mirror hanging on the wall in this family room, and the perfect mix of cushion patterns.

My Best Friend’s Wedding

The Past weekend my best friend got married! I was super excited to be a bridesmaid, the day was sunny and gorgeous as was the beautiful bride, I hope to share some professional pictures of her amazing day with you soon.

In the meantime here is our Polaroid from the guestbook (bridesmaids should never break a pose).

Fashionable Friday: Pink Peonies {Fashion}

The Hubs and I are heading to Japan for Christmas and the weather is going to be on average 10 degrees.

I am feeling rather inspired by Rachel Parcell from Pink Peonies and her Gorgeous winter looks!.

Sit back and enjoy the inspired gorgeousness that is a wingback chair at the dining table.

Peak over the fence: My little sisters Apartment {inspired}

My little sister has recently moved to Paddington in Sydney, it is fantastic to have her close by and it is such a great neighbourhood. I remember it was a big change moving to the city from our parentals, both my husband and I have only ever made that one move (8 years ago). A very quick look at her little abode:    

Don’t you think she has great decorating style! I custom made the "When life gives you lemons" print for her a while ago as a random surprise, she has paired it with a lovely little scull tequila bottle (how fitting) and some black and white canisters.

PS: It's her birthday today! Happy birthday sis XX

Cloud Art ~ Via: Amber Interiors {DIY}

I absolutely adore Amber Interior Design Cloud photograph DIY for her dining room, what a fantastic way to add colour to complement a room.

Here is how she did it:

I took some cool photos of white puffy clouds and had them blown up 28" x 40" on glossy poster paper. It was 30 bucks to blow up and then I framed them in Ribba's from Ikea. I photo shopped the images a bit to make them have that Lomo camera poloroid vibe and Wallah! Big original art for under 60 bucks! Woop Woop!
