If you can work out what you love and where you sit in the style stakes it will hold you in good stead when buying clothes, interiors and even your flowers. Its taken me a few years but I am pretty set in what catches my eye and inspires me when trawling through images and product n the net. As I have said with time has also brought me to applying the rule of ‘buy less, choose better’ which I have made true in all aspects of my style – in this case my home….well my studio here but same thing. Now this doesn’t necessarily mean it has to be the most expensive pick of the bunch as we also know that money doesn’t buy style. Its about being smart with what you need to fill the void. I have lots of denim and shirts but I sometimes struggle when it comes to stepping up my more casual approach so I have some Ellery, Asos and Zara added to the mix to fill in.

For the home I know that black and white are my flava with a scandinavian/New York loft influence. In the back of my mind (or saved on my phone) the best homes and images I have seen that fit my vibe then when shopping I know what to filter. I teamed up with Target to see if they could tick my boxes and fill in a void in my Interior stash. You be the judge but from this angle and I have to admit that I picked up a few more than expected and emptied out a few online carts I had on stand by filled with things of slightly more dollar value. I am happy with that!

In other news We bought a house! So I am gearing up for a styling frenzy to get it ready to be the ‘dream house’. A few coats of paint and the change of a few doors is the first order of business and then we move in. So many interior shots and exactly what I am talking it going into practice for more than just a blog post and photo shoot. Taking my own advice, know what you want. More on this soon.
