After spending the weekend splishing and splashing in Tooting Bec Lido, we thought we’d take a dip into an ombre inspired trend post.

We were inspired with this post after we discovered the below killer chair from Made.com and decided to…

A holiday to a tropical paradise might be a pipe dream to us right now while we save to furnish our dream flat, but that doesn’t mean we can’t be inspired by exotic vistas and serene beaches while we ponder interiors. Until we can board a ten-hour flight to somewhere hot and sunny, we thought…
