It could look like this!

Hang something on your wall!

I met a friend today who told me being in need of art and wall decoration to her new apartment.. I found these pics that maybe could bring some inspiration!

Colorful abstract art suits almost every interior style.

I wouldn't say no to one of Swedish artist

Carolina Gynning's paintings

- Cool and powerful!

Framed black and white photos is an easy and classic way to decorate your walls.

More abstact art but less colourful

Mirror decoration

And at last my own favourite; Mark Rothko!

A new RUE out!

Yeyyy! A new issue of the online magazine RUE is now out! Plenty of lifestyle inspiration; for both you and your home!

I especially liked the interview with Kendall Wilkinson and the photos from her stylish home.

Wilkinson's dining room with the wooden table and the Philippe Stark's Ghost chairs makes

a perfect match - the different materials creates an eclectic look.

Pimp your furniture

A year ago I bought a sideboard from Ikea on a flea market. I have re-painted it but I'm not really satisfied of the result, it could be more fun with another colour and maybe I'll change the knobs. I think it's a little better now than before though.

In need of inspiration

Last Friday I didn't give you any Four Friday Favourites post. Lately I' ve found it hard to find inspiration to the Friday posts so that's why I'll try to take a break from them and instead get more motivated to update the blog with posts that feels right for the moment.

The first thing I did in order to get inspiration - Online shopping for new books!



Life and Work by Malene Birger

Domino

-  about 270 pages of Interior Decoration!

Other books I'd probably buy another day are

Four Friday Favourites

After almost five months in my new apartment it is now starting to look like a place you can actually live in.. and invite friends too. My inspiration has been interiors in black and white, with possibly an accent colour. Here are my four favourites (and they happen to all be Scandinavian designers):

Inspiration Bookshelves

Check out these bookshelf sideboards. Even though it could be more practical to have high bookshelves, the lower ones give the room more space. With a little help from lamps, art, flowers etc. and it will immediately result in a cozy athmosphere.

Four Friday Favourites

For shopping online check out Nordstrom if you have not already discovered it. This fantastic site has everything from clothes, shoes and bags to home decoration and gift ideas.

I have mostly checked out the bags department, here are my four favourites:

 Kate Spade New York Cobble Hill Satchel

Michael Kors Kingsbury Tote

Oryany 'Gwen' Faux Raffia Crossbody Bag

Halogen Leather Tote

One of these will definetely be mine, which one do you prefer?

Have a really nice weekend!

Four Friday Favourites

I have a sideboard in oak half painted in white. It has been standing in the middle of the room for almost a year now, looking at me waiting to get finished. I am thinking of maybe paint it in another colour.. just can't decide which one. I have checked different options on internet this week so my Four Friday Favourites are as follows:

Which one is your favourite??

It's Friday, it's sunny and I will now go out on my balcony and have delicious macarons from La Durée... also these in many lovely colours.

Have a really nice weekend!!!

Beautiful rooms

Take a look at these rooms and get new ideas for your home; change your cushions, paint a furniture in high gloss black, get new art for your walls and put a fresh flower bouquet on the coffee table. The small details can make a huge difference.

All pictures are from Decorpad, a great site for interior design inspiration!

Have  a wonderful day!

Four Friday Favourites

Oh no, this week I TOTALLY forgot to give you my Four Friday's Favourites! But no worries, here it is - one day too late, sorry!

It has been sunny and warm the whole week and I have a few ideas for my balcony but as always I can't decide whether I want to keep it minimalistic in only white, black and grey or if I should go crazy with coulours. Take a look at these nice balconies and terraces and get some inspiration!
