Galia Bernstein: Illustrator

This illustration has won my heart today and I wish Galia Bernstein all the luck for her entry in the London Transport Museum's Cycling–London Illustration Competition. Her elegant work is full of interesting patterns and delightful colors. So far, Galia is in the Top 50 and will take part in an exhibition in the Museum. Now if only I can fly up there for the weekend to see the show, but for now... I'll be patiently waiting in Galia's blog. To admire more of her amazing work, go here.

Monday Blues

Good morning and welcome to a new week. Just in case you find it hard to chase the Monday blues away... take a deep breath and charge on with the fresh color of blue. So stay calm, cool and collective and have a happy Monday! Remember the weekend's just five days away with a midsummer holiday!

Sweet as Apple Pie

Oh la la..I'm in love with Ruche's Sweet as Apple Pie collection. Their new Summer Lookbook just launched today and I'm so excited to share it with you. The outfits are absolutely gorgeous and I really love them all. I think I need to go on a romantic vacation wearing these outfits with my husband! Make sure you head over and check out what Ruche has to offer. Have fun browsing and enjoy the fabulous day!

Sleek, modern home

Admiring these photos of interior spaces captured by Charlie Bennet Photography. I love the sleek, modern kitchen with the fireplace and the lovely cushion floor pillows. Is there any design elements that stands out to you? How about that dramatic entrance at the top with beautiful paintings?!

Welcome Summer!
