Sofia Coppola's Hotel

... well, her Dad's hotel, but she has her own room. You can really see a lot of her films in this beautiful space, namely, the soft colours and tranquility. The courtyards and large windows are filled with romance and the place is filled with sophistication.
Amazing. It's in the Coppola family's hometown in Italy and the building is a transformed 19th century palazzo. Imgaine how fabulous summers spent here would be... ahh.

Scandinavian Home Inspiration

I'm really lapping anything and everything to do with Scandinavia right now. I don't normally feature interiors on this blog - but check out this inspiring house.

I love the bright flashes of colour among the natural materials and white walls; the light in the house is absolutely beautiful. Most of the items in the house are second hand, and it has such a lovely organic feel. I am so excited about soaking up some Scandinavian design.

November

Nothing says Autumn / Winter like a Toast catalogue. I have been feeling under the weather for the past few days but nothing fuels my desire to stay in and rest up like a Toast catalogue does.
