WE HAPPENED UPON the beautiful home of Danish artist and interior stylist Simone Polk Dahl on Instagram and have fallen completely in love with the easy-going vibes of this space with its neutral palette of black, beige and brown tones ...
WHILE IN THE process of transitioning from an old bookmark organiser to a new one, I found saved links to The Colony Hotel in Palm Beach that had been meaning to tell you about. Called the most Instagrammable Hotel of 2020 by Vanity Fair ...
EVER SINCE Edinburgh, we have been off our routines—the workouts, the cardio sessions on the exercise bike, the daily countryside walks. Summer might have something to do with that as well, but it has been a while now that we've not been able to keep all of our Monday, Wednesday, Friday workout commitments. I had thought today might be a start, but in truth, perhaps nothing will be back to normal until September. (Can you believe that it is already nearly mid-August?)

EMMA HILL, this week's Blogger Style feature, may be the queen of autumn dressing, but since the weather hasn't been exactly cooperating lately, perhaps a little cool weather style inspiration is appropriate, until at least (hopefully) next week, when summer promises to return again. Even still, Hill's expert layering works for any weather...
WE CAME ACROSS the work of interior photographer and stylist Aimée Mazzenga from the beautiful images she created of other people's homes, but only recently came across her own home in Chicago's Gold Coast Historic District.
WE FEATURED THE WORK of interior photographer and stylist Carley Page Summers twice before (here & here), but she has since added more images of her North Carolina home to her Instagram page and it's all marble and crystal chandeliers, gilded mirrors and dappled sunlight, a cat on a dining room table, and a dog curled up on a pink velvet armchair by the fire ...
IT'S A RARE WINTER wonderland here in the English countryside, so Aaron and Lauren Paul's snowy 5-bedroom cabin getaway in Idaho seemed appropriate. The Idaho-raised actor's recently-built home was featured in the March issue of Architectural Digest. Located on a 5-acre lot, the Pauls' rustic-chic getaway is filled with reclaimed barnwood and Montana moss rock ...
WHILE WE HAVE many qualms about Airbnb as a business and have never used them personally, if we were ever to make an exception, it would be for this beautiful one-bedroom apartment in Trouville-sur-Mer. Often called just Trouville, this commune is located in the Calvados department in the Normandy region of northwestern France, bordering Deauville, about 200km from Paris ...
THE FIRST THING that caught my eye in this charming Swedish kitchen was the glass-front cabinets, which reminded me of those old barrister bookcases sometimes repurposed in décor for storing/displaying shoes. The kitchen belongs to two Berliners, Laura Muthesius, a food stylist, and Nora Eisermann, a photographer, who always dreamed of owning a home in Sweden.
There is a restaurant in Bucharest that my friends told me about on my recent trip to Romania, called Pot Stories. It's a place filled with natural fabrics, thick carpets, an abundance of greenery and ceramics, rough wooden tables, and rope and wicker.
THIS WEEKEND WE watched Rebecca, the 2020 adaption of Daphne du Maurier's 1938 novel recently released on Netflix. It's directed by Ben Wheatley and stars Armie Hammer, Lily James and Kristin Scott Thomas. We'd plan to watch this film last week, and I was so excited ...
ONE OF THE BEST things about the changing of the seasons is all the different fruits and vegetables that signal each one. Summers in Spain meant sandía in the mornings and springtime means lots of sweet, dark cherries. Right now, in early autumn, it's apples, hanging heavy from all the trees scattered about the countryside, and my most favourite of all, fig season ...
THIS INSTALMENT OF 10 IMAGES features the work of Abbie Mellé, a freelance lifestyle, interior and travel photographer based in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales ...
