The temperatures are dropping and moods are turning.
When I say goodbye to summer and start thinking about the winter, warm and ambient interiors come into play…
Slick, bright and contemporary leave my mind… luxurious, textured and worn fall into place.
I’m ready and waiting for…
Snug evenings and cold climate thrillers… murder mysteries set in the northern hemisphere… where the landscape is as large a character as the main protaganists… I’m ready for Camilla Lackberg and her Swedish chills.
Hearty meals… slow cooking and experimenting with recipes… re-tasting winter goodness… learning to trade the salads for the root vegetables…
Burning those scented candles that remind me of family nights around our French fireplace. Nothing smells as warm and as inviting as Feu du Bois or Ernesto Tobacco and Leather.
I’m ready to get out the cashmere throw and snuggle up…
Dare I mention that the Uggs will resurface and be worn in private… (I’m Australian… I am allowed) and the PJ’s will be pulled out from the bottom of the drawer.
The computer will be out and I’ll be browsing the vintage and market finds on One Kings Lane…
Have a cosy weekend… xv
