Design | August 10th, 2016
Art is a very important part of our home decor. There is scarcely a wall in our house devoid of a framed print, photograph or painting.

Unless you have been living under a rock, you have probably noticed the attention the eyebrow has been receiving of late. In the last few years brows have become an emblem of strength, glamour and femininity. Or at least some people would have you believe.

Design | February 5th, 2016
Valentine’s Day is nearly here and with it the excuse to celebrate with friends, partners or loved ones. As I mentioned last year, I’ve always loved Valentine’s Day. True, there are a number of negative facts and myths surrounding this non-holiday, but it is also an adorable, glittery gem in the midst of my post-Christmas […]
