- Midlands -

Visited the Midlands this weekend. Love that area so much. We decided to go along the Curry's Post Road, as we have never done it before. Well, it was beautiful!! so peaceful - (not many cars on the road) and the surrounding farms are so lovely and green.Our first stop was at Tumble Downs a lovely cafe/restaurant with amazing views. We then carried on along Curry's Post, and went to Terbodorecoffee. What a lovely spot this is, iced coffee was a must as it was thee hottest day. After the iced coffee, we joined up with Nottingham road, and meandered down towards this cute little spot -  "Lion's River Trading Post" an antique furniture and collectables shop.

- Simple Bedroom's -









Your bedroom is an important part of the house. It's the one place where you can relax, and hopefully nobody bothers you. I love simple bedroom's, where there is no clutter, just lovely white bed linen and pops of colour here and there. It's important to make your space your own, by adding special pieces ie: photos; old books; upcycled furniture ect.
These are a few good example.

[Trend] Neon

So Neon is a huge craze at the moment, not only in fashion but in interiors as well. I'm not a huge fan of Neon, but - wow - if you know how to use it/wear it in the right way it can be very effective. I think its best when you use it in small amounts (accessories ect..), so once you get over it, you are able to change it quite easily.
