Japandi-style ensuite bathroom

You’ve likely already gotten a good look at our en-suite (and main) bathroom if you’re subscribed to my YouTube channel, but I wanted to take a moment to share it in detail here, too. In case you’ve missed it, my husband and I recently added a second storey to our home, in addition to reconfiguring downstairs and re-designing our kitchen. We’re still settling in, but I’m planning to slowly share a window into each space, and talk through design elements along with where we sourced everything.

A week of outfit ideas for May

I don’t have too much to say today; perhaps a result of weariness due to early morning wake ups (those with young kids will relate), and recurring tonsillitis. But, I suppose the one thing that always seems to remain steadfast is my love of dressing up (and of playing dress ups). This collection of outfits is a reflection of key pieces that are exciting me right now, and just general styling that is reflected in much of what I wear day-to-day. For the most part, clothing that is easy to move around in, but overall, makes me feel good, regardless…
