So, as always when a new season is ahead I put my ear against the Formex Fair trend forecasts. Their chosen trend theme for home decor Autumn 2012 is Nordic Charm, which – if you allow me to be a bit sarcastic – both seems and is a bit presumptuous considering Formex a meeting place [...]
I really like this story in the brand new issue of the wonderful Heart Home Magazine. They’ve visited French blogger Carole Poirot (with the blog Mademoiselle Poirot) in her London home.

The retro trend shows no signs of cooling off – quite the opposite! In 2011, we love things retro, calling on 50s and 70s mainly it seems, but all decades from 70s and further back are having a groovy revival. One single retro detail (like a vintage radio, retro phone, etc), some pices of retro [...]
In the meantime, while Trendey sisters focus on their regular careers & professions, we have the greatest blog tips for you: Dos family. As always, you might already know all about it, but if not: this is a blog by decorator (slash designer, columnist, TV-presenter, etc) Isabelle Halling McAllister and photographer Jenny Brandt (who also [...]
