Fashion: time to wrap up warm “It’s a little chilly isn’t it?”, a common comment we’ve been hearing all week. To us, however, it means it’s new Winter coat time – yippee! Mark has had his beady eye on this little Dr Denim pea coat navy number from Urban Outfitters for a while now and…

Fashion: Percival for Traidremade We definitely support sustainable and ethical fashion, so when we came across this latest collaboration with fashion reuse charity Traid we couldn’t help but rave about it.

On Sunday we set off to Oxford Street (mad, we know) to run some errands; David got his watch fixed and window shopped for a laptop (which he bought today – hoozah!) and Mark browsed around Urban Outfitters for a pea coat. On our way, out of the corner of our eye, there it was……

This post and it’s content has been kept wrapped up in bubble wrap and stored safely away in David’s cupboard. We didn’t want to get it out until we had moved in to the flat and now it takes pride of place on the living room wall. We’re talking about this Waves print. It’s…

On a sunny Saturday morning, we went to the estate agents to sort some admin out for the new flat. On the way we had to make a pit stop at Tooting Bec’s new addition Imperial Durbar for a much needed iced latte and pastry following a rather boozy Friday night with friends. The Imperial…

Season 2 of Orange is the New Black has come to an end. We know… we know. Fret not. Here are some cheery orange accessories to add a little ‘Piper couture’ in to the home. Now back to work inmates. David & Mark x

It’s only once something gets cleaned do you really appreciate it. After spending a Saturday afternoon giving Mark’s flat a deep clean, we couldn’t help but notice how well the floor comes up after a bit of a hoover and mop. Parquet flooring is the kind of design feature that is sometimes overlooked because you…

Ahoy me hearties! The nautical look is quite a simple one to achieve. Palettes of blue and white with hints of red give you a starting point and from there it’s easy for the finished article to come together. We were inspired with this post after we discovered the below killer chair from Made.com and decided to…
