Pool Party

Don't you just love Jessica Alba - she is totally gorgeous with those big doe eyes of hers. I also think she looks fabulously stylish on the red carpet - she always looks so chic and elegant. In Hollywood where actresses opt for overtly sexy, showy dresses, Jessica still manages to stand out from the crowd in something demure and classic. Here she looks totally sweet and pretty in pink for an Elle Magazine shoot.

The Artist

With glorious summer days and time to relax, I am feeling inspired to get out my 

watercolour paints and brushes and get creative.

Hope you have a lovely Sunday!

Floral Inspiration

 

For me fresh flowers is one of the sweetest luxurious in life - they brighten up your home and your spirits. Simply by adding a bunch of flowers can change the mood of a room or a table setting house. My house looks perfect with white flowers but  I love to mix it up - sunflowers in summer for some added drama, peonies & blossom in spring and bright tulips and lilies in winter.

Awash With Summer Colour

 

 

Summer is the perfect time to chill out, relax and de-stress after a busy year and what better way to do that than by a pool, with palm trees swaying overhead, and a cool drink by your side, preferably with a dash of gin! I am loving these soft floating images in washed out pastels - I just feel like diving straight in that pool to cool off!
