treasure hunting.

A few snaps of my favourite finds during a visit to an incredible antiques mill- I came away with a simple framed illustration of fish ( I will show you soon ) but am trying to resist a revisit for an unbelievable sofa.
I have a slight obsession with semi- precious stones.... dating back to my childhood when I used to collect rocks and gems!

williamson park.



This weekend was the first chance of photos since returning from a holiday on Thursday morning. I spent the day at a beautiful park, butterfly house that was incredible, and visiting a true gem of an antiques centre.

 I had been a little hesitant about visiting Lanzarote , but the hotel was pure paradise, and far exceeded my preconceptions. Balinese day beds complete with fresh linen sheets, mid morning fruit kebabs, afternoon tea and beautiful weather almost the whole time!

favourite times.


I am flying home from holiday late on tonight..... a few more days until I return to the city and to work. One of my favourite things to do sat on my skinny balcony.. dreaming of far away cities. Katie.x

patent & perfect.

 

Absolutely love the clean lines, simple black patent and understated heel height of my new shoes, and the way they look so abstract in the composition of these photos.

plaited metal.


Close up of my latest jewellery crush...discovered in H&M on the way home from work. Unbelievably £9.99... and the last one left. I love this time of year when unexpected treasures appear in high street stores, that literally disappear in the blink of an eye. Katie.x
