source Constantly browsing through apartments, flats and terrace houses online coincides quite neatly with predictably obsessing over how to decorate. As I face the prospect of almost furnishing a place from scratch, I’ve been looking to Pinterest and Tumblr for inspiration – which as you can imagine, is a veritable treasure trove of beautifully styled houses.

Bassike heritage t-shirt, Karla Spetic skirt, Vintage chelsea boots (similar), Proenza Schouler PS11 bag, Marc by Marc Jacobs bracelet, Karen Walker bow & heart rings Dealing with humidity the best way I know how, in nothing but the classics, albeit with a twist.

Equipment sleeveless blouse, Forever 21 sweater, J Crew skirt, Alexander Wang angelika heels, Kate of Arcadia clutch Trust me to inadvertently wear some form of red on Valentine’s Day. Rather than give into some of the more consumerist tendencies of the holiday, Luke and I are keeping it simple with handwritten letters and a quiet night in.
