Simplicity Defined

Fall is around the corner (nnnnoooooooo!!!) and fashion is on our minds these days as we start to dress with more layers. I still like to keep it simple in fashion, a little classic with a bit of style and in decor the same always works....especially when it comes to tones of white fashion and white decor....Let me know what you will be wearing and decorating this fall!

Inspiration in White: Black and White in Fashion and Home

Here are a few of my favourite Pins this week...So loving all the black and white I have been finding lately in fashion and in home decor. It must be the time of year because I am really wanting to add black to my all white home and add white into my all black wardrobe, even in winter. So fun to mix things up a bit don't you think?

I have been working super hard in the studio these days with ceramic orders and I have even been testing a bit of black on my white ceramics...just for a change. I will show you a few pieces when I feel they are where I want them to be. Take a look at some of these great ideas...

Fashion and Decor

 

 It seems to me that the clothes I like best are very often a reflection of the houses I love. They are all neutral tone, kinda loose and comfy and, more often than not, have a shot of blue for good measure. I love grey, white and camel together and homes that have those tones really speak to me. I don't actually wear a lot of denim or have any in my home but I like what denim represents....a relaxed mood and natural fabrics. I am really finding there are some great fashions this fall so it should be fun dressing for the season. I am still hanging onto the summer mood but am getting more ready to pull out some sweaters after writing this post!

Enjoy!

Inspiration in White: Simplicity

Looking through my tumblr photos today got me loving these fresh and flowing light summery clothes and beautiful simple interiors. It is so lovely to see a space with gorgeous architecture that is really shown off with the simplest of decor... and the same goes for fashion... sometimes less is more.  I think I could live in any of these spaces and in all of these clothes....for today anyway :)!

Enjoy!

Fresh Florals

I really cannot wait until spring.....is it warm where you live? Here in Montreal it is still cold and snowing (I am soooo tired of wearing boots) and all I seem to be looking at is florals in clothing and decor to get me out of the winter blues. There are many pretty florals in decor right now from fabrics to wallpaper and carpets and of coursejust putting out fresh flowers makes any room feel brighter. I have gathered a few florals for you today so I hope you enjoy!

Enjoy!

Fashionable Home

This is the home of Swedish fashion designer Naja Munthe. Again, the simplicity of the furnishings and colour palette are perfect. Some things that really jump out at me as great ideas are the low hanging pendant lights over the coffee table as well as the glass panelled windows that create the entry into the dining room! Stunning...I also love the wall of books in the dining room. Very original home.

Enjoy!

Lonny- Soho Loft

This gorgeous loft in Soho was designed by Jarlath Mellett a former clothing designer. Mellet says he approached the design of this loft from a fashion standpoint paying close attention to fabrics and even the stitching details. Using a mix of vintage and modern pieces and mixing wonderful textures make this space feel like it was put together over many years. Keeping to neutral tones the designer was going for an earthy and romantic feel and I think he achieved it!

Enjoy!
