EYE CANDY : LONNY MAG MARCH / APRIL

Lonny mag March / April issue is out today and once again filled with images of other peoples home to make you envious and inspired, like these shots from Toni Tobin's Mailibu beach cottage.

EYE CANDY : FRIDAY NIGHT STRIPES AND IKAT

Some Friday night eye candy to take you to the weekend! The first pic is a fashion/interior crossover; loving that stripe stripe combo and the office in the background gets my attention (seen via layers of meaning) and this great quilt seen via Domestikated Life. TGIF!

I WANT IT NOW : WATERCOLOUR PILLOW AND ROUCHED QUILT

Following on from my Adore Magazine Eye Candy post on sunday, these are two items from theApril/May issue that are on my decorating wish list. I wonder how hard a quilt like that would be to DIY...

Bluebellgray Magnolia Large pillow £80

ada&darcy charcoal rosette throw $219

EYE CANDY : ADORE HOME MAGAZINE'S APRIL/MAY ISSUE

Adore Home Magazine's April/May issue is my favourite so far! Jam packed with rooms to envy and style to steal; I could barely cull my favourite pages down to a suitable posting level, and even then there is plenty to see below. Hope everyone had a great weekend...

EYE CANDY : HOUSE & GARDEN

Posting up some early morning eye candy from the Ninemsn House & Garden site.

A little bit of pretty to get you through Monday morning blues

wish I could see more of that painting hanging on the left

Great La Cravat vintage poster

EYE CANDY : ADORE HOME MAGAZINE'S BRITISH ISSUE

The current issue of Adore Home Online Magazine is a British themed treat for the interior designer within! I'm big on this look at the moment especially Union Jacks and slogan prints so I found plenty of red, blues and whites to keep my eyes occupied. Heres some of my fave pages...

Sounds so simple and delicious! looking forward to road testing this recipe for lemonade scones

EYE CANDY : the glamourai: { before + after } bedroom furniture

EYE CANDY : FRIDAY PIECES

I've had these pics in my 'eye candy' folder for a little bit now, so thought today was as good a day as any to share them! The first comes via a post on LiveCreatingYourself...I think this Ikea desk is super cool and would love to have something similar in my workspace. The next is another look to steal from DomestiKatedLife blog...love the look of symmetry, the throw,those stripes and end of bed ottomans...ok I like the whole room :) - and the third is a random desk I spotted as inspiration for my owns makeover - though more of a general inspiration (paint and re-cover chair) than specific (mimic bright yellow).

EYE CANDY : HIGH GLOSS LAUNCHES

The premier issue of lifestyle Magazine - High Gloss, has officially launched and is available online for your viewing pleasure! Here is a selection of some looks that caught my eye...the first two images are from the stylish home of I suwannee author and shopfurbish.com owner Jaime Meares. The next speaks for itself! an amazing place (a little more extravagant than your average pool room) and finally a pic of Californian Tia Zoldan's living room.

Really like the look of those (what I am guessing to be) paper animal silhouettes

Have always wanted a big comfy chair at the end of my bed

EYE CANDY : RUE ISSUE 3

Its that time again - Rue Jan/Feb has hit the virtual news stands and is once again an aspirational treat filled with great spaces and stories from the great people who occupy them! Here are some of my faves to take you to the weekend, head over to Ruemag.com for more. Happy Friday!

Have had this idea on my to do list for a while now, kitchen blackboard with black frame

not a very kid friendly print, or maybe it is... pretty cool

love the spray of patterned light from those lamps

EYE CANDY : YELLOW! HOW ARE YOU?

Yellow facts : According to SensationalColour.com 75% of the pencils sold in the US were yellow, yellow is psychologically the happiest colour in the spectrum, it encourages communication and stimulates mental processes and memory and also apparently yellow cars have fewer accidents.I have a bit of a yellow craze going on at the moment, to wear it and to live in it is a big yes please! But I have definitely been hoarding quite the collection of lemon splashed interiors that I had to share, hopefully all this bright hue saturation will make your week a little brighter too!
