Schuyler Samperton
I thoroughly enjoyed browsing through Schuyler Samperton's portfolio on her webiste this morning. Schuyler has recently designed the home of model Carolyn Murphy which is featured in the March issue of Vogue {U.S. Vogue that is}. I love her gorgeous, layered, Bohemian style. Just breathtaking.
Oh and Schuyler has just started a blog HERE. I'll definitely be following this new blog!!

More Ben Pentreath
Further to my previous post look at this fabulous picture taken at Ben Pentreath's store in London! What a wonderful and uplifting combination of colours and I love the Josef Frank fabric on the armchair mixed with the kilim stripe on the side chairs and the blue and white ginger jars! I really love his style.
Admiring
Late last year I posted the entry foyer of this lovely house which was featured in the Dec/Jan 2012 issue of House Beautiful magazine. It was such a wonderful surprise when I visited Heather at Habitually Chic this morning to discover that she recently visited this divine home which belongs to L.A. Designer Mark Sikes.
Heather has prepared 2 fabulous posts which are chocker-block full of AMAZING images of Mark's Hollywood Hills home. I think these 2 pictures above of his little sitting nook are my absolute favourite.
I must say that this home is an example of white walls done extremely well. It's so important to layer lots of fabulous bits and pieces, books, artwork, rugs, collections, fabrics and furniture on top of a blank canvas of white walls and floors. And in my opinion, Mark has achieved the perfect balance here in his beautiful home.
Make sure you head over to Habitually Chic for the full scoop!
Happy Australia Day my Australian friends. Hope you have a fabulous day!

Beautiful Weekend
Did you embrace the wonderful weather here in Brisbane today? Wasn't it a beautiful day? We had a very lazy day at home. The sort of day that starts with the Sunday papers spread all over the bed and it didn't get much busier than a bit of weeding and watering in the garden. Max spent alot of time running through the sprinkler and we spent alot of time just sitting and enjoying the spectacular day. What did you get up to today?
PS. I love that bedroom above with the amazing bookcase...so beautiful!!
Tidbits
Gosh, I really like this kitchen. I love how it's all just a bit of a mismatch. Nothing new and perfect about this kitchen which makes it so interesting and unique.
I also like this pretty bedroom which I found over at Decor8 by Lisa Stickley. Talking about Decor8, I was so excited to see the post Holly did last week about our online store and the concept behind it. Thank you Holly. You are always so generous with your support!
Hope everyone had a great weekend. Mine was lovely. Thank you also to everyone for your support and kind notes about our Spring Vignette.

Dishevelled Perfection
Last night I did something I haven't done in a very long time. I got caught on a couple of tumblr sites and I couldn't get off. I just kept on scrolling. Back in the early days of this blog I spent a lot of time reading other blogs and tumblrs but I have to be honest, these days I don't read many blogs. Maybe it's a time thing or maybe it's because there are just so many out there now and I can't keep up. Not sure. However, I did find this fabulous image on Matchbook's tumblr last night. It stopped me in my tracks. I love how imperfect and dishevelled it is.
Have a great Monday!

Patchwork Tiles & Mothers Day
Whilst having a flick through one of my old decorating books today I stumbled across this image which reminded me how much I really like the idea of these blue and white patchwork tiles for our new kitchen. Oh and look at those big fabulous blue and white bowls...definitely something else to covet!!
Hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day. Mine was lovely. The boys cooked me lunch. I set the table with succulents and our mismatched old blue and white plates. It was relaxing and happy and I loved every minute of it....xx
Chair Heaven
When I was at a client's house a few weeks ago I spotted this fabulous image when she was showing me through her file of things she loves. I took a photo of the tear sheet as I too love this chair. I'm sorry I don't know the source of this photo so if anyone does then just let me know. This image has now been slotted into my file of things I love...the file is bulging these days!
image source thanks to Make mine Mid-Century Blog - Home Beautiful May 2007 'Bohemian Rhapsody' p 72.
Heaven on Earth
Whenever I visit Ursula's blog, Aged & Gilded, I am never disappointed. She constantly inspires me with the beautiful images and articles she shares. I love too that she shows pictures of houses in French Elle Decor. This house, which she recently posted, has me totally smitten. I love it. I love the patchwork tiling in particular! Hope you have a great weekend. I'm signing off now for this week...

Some Inspiration
These days I've been a little uninspired by houses I've seen in magazines and online. I'm not sure why. However, I have found myself completely captivated by this house in New York which was featured in this month's Belle magazine. The owner decorated the entire house on her own. I love the mix of styles, the pops of colour and of course the all-white interior and exterior. I am also completely enamoured with the kitchen. I love the stainless steel cabinetry....a look I think I am going to incorporate in my own kitchen when it's time to renovate that part of the house. Isn't the wall of tribal masks fabulous and Belle's fresh and colourful cover really did it for me this month too.
Loving
I am completely in-love with these images...especially that lovely pink!

I Love...
Every now and then I spot a room I absolutely love and this one above, as published in Elle Decor, is one of them. I think it's the lovely fresh colours against the all-white background, the dining chairs and the beautiful old marble fireplace which I love most!

Rug Love
I have been obsessed with this Matthew Williamson rug from The Rug Company for a little while. I would love one of these for our new house but I think it will definitely be way out of our price range. The colours used are divine and I just love the pattern. Doesn't it look beautiful with that pink sofa and I especially like it placed on the white painted timber floors!
Colour Connection
There is certainly lots of things to love about this month's Vogue Living which I just received in the mail today. In particular I loved this shot of Hamish Bowles' living room and thought it went so well with the beautiful child portrait photograph at top by Jenifer Altman.
Loving
I am completely in love with these gorgeous purple spots. Top image is new Megan Park via Marie Claire magazine and bottom image is Lilly Bunn Weekes, head designer at McMillen Plus as profiled by Vogue which I found over at Peak of Chic.
From The Files
A couple of images from my files which I continue to love. I really do seem to be enjoying a touch of red lately and it always looks wonderful with blue and white don't you think?
