Welcome to an ordinary woman with ordinary interests – interior design, people, food, fashion, travel – simply beautiful everyday things. You could say that I'm a beauty follower. But mind you, It's not about the surface in that sense, rather about the beauty in people & things. I try to credit the source but if I've made an error or you're not happy with me using an image, please let me know. I hope you find this blog inspiring & thus get the urge to visit again…& again :)
Rich colours
When you have a good foundation with the furnishing & the various functions in place, it is wonderful to then add to the textile feeling to create a homely haven – with rich colours that amplifies.

Ice blue
Inspiring colour combinations can be created without shouting colour. The blue colour that I have a fondness for right now has been combined with grey & other shades that work well together to create a welcoming feel. Texture, material & daylight plus different light sources provides an exciting result.

Crispy & creamy
Crispy pancetta wrapped around creamy avocado – partnered with two dippy eggs. It wouldn’t work for me as a vegetarian but it might suit you :)

Sweet potato fries
Sweet potato fries, marinated tomatoes & chickpeas, feta cheese, tzatziki, & fried pita strips, inspired by Greek salad, nachos & chili cheese fries for fry lovers. You could also add kalamata olives and/or pepperoncini to make it more exciting.
Not my usual choice of food but this would make me happy, a late evening from work.

Short & long sleeves
I like the combination of short sleeves over a long-sleeved top. Whether it’s for everyday or special occasions. Sure it’s neat, right?

White & wood
A nice house built in two heights with brick at the front & the part behind in wood. I like the white painted brick with the white patio doors in mirrored glass & white stone floor.

Some would say that you cannot buy happiness with money, but it can be done. At least when it comes to small trinkets.

Grey curtains
I am currently looking for grey curtains in linen to the bedroom. Or they might end up in the living room, now that the craftsmen soon are ready with the surface, which is repainted in white. It’s nice with grey & white, right?

Detachable sleeve
Deep blue glossy linen & lacquer skirt can in itself look good but with floral detachable sleeves fastened with a knot – that’s slightly different & creates attention.

Light blue
Light Blue is a colour that has attracted my interest for a while now. Maybe a little bit darker in tone but not too close to the grey, as the bench on the image. Anyway, a nice setting with a lovely light feeling.

Red chairs
Red chairs in this design is one of my favourites since childhood, for some reasons. It’s such a nice colour splash & works well in this environment – with the wallpaper on one wall & the checkered floor.

Greens
I am not a user of colour although I appreciate that in my daily life & surroundings. But olive green, that’s an absolutely favourite – I found these colour combinations inspiring.

Rug love
Åhlens is a given when we go home to Sweden on holiday. It has always been one of my favourite stores & they manage to keep a high level & quality through the store. Fashion, decor, housewares, textiles are appealing in one way or another.
I would love to buy a number of rugs of this kind. But alas, this thing with distance…

Beautiful blue
Beautiful blue colour in which textiles are mixed with white. Even the headboard goes in the same blue. Thin sheer curtains combined with a little black helps make it all the more appealing.

It is a lot of nice sofas that appears through online shopping, in stores’ range & variety of decor blogs right now. Much of velvet & quite a few that are large in size or with round generous shapes. Here is a favourite in a nice soft honey-yellow colour.
