My dad sent me these South African house photos. This modern "fort-house" is beautifully sad in some amazing way.

In London last week, I went past the American shop Anthropologie. I could not go inside unfortunately (which I regret immensely) but I have been checking out their cool things online.

Voyage Immobile

These amazing sculptures are made by my dearest artist friend JADE. I have known her (and her art of course) for 10 years and have admired her since. With every exhibition, with every piece she always has a new beautiful story to tell. If you want to see her art, she is having an exhibition in Evian at the Galerie29 until the 3rd of December (for more information, click on invitation above) . To discover more of her mystical world go to www.jadesculptures.fr

I think bedrooms are the most difficult things to "design". It's so personal. And it's also so easy to overdo it. Here's a selection of some I like.. It always tend to be the white ones...

My childhood's vineyards

In today's blog, I am taking you to my childhood in Transsylvania. This house was my great grandmother's and it's simply magical. Can time really stand still? If yes, this is what it must look like. As long as one does not look at the people's faces around the table.

The orange inspiration I promised in an earlier post was a real challenge. Just an orange pillow would have been like cheating, so I really had to dig. But thanks to Pinterest and my dear friend Anna, here is some orange that is not too bad. 

This weekend I really surprised myself... I speed decorated the table for our Sunday lunch with friends, I made Hungarian Petits Choux and roasted chickpeas AND I took some photos following my dear friend's advice. There is room for improvement but I still think I earned another holiday... Tomorrow Varigotti, Liguria!

There really is no need to work hard when others do...Check out this great blog and its mood-boards: Items by Designbird.
