Super Acne

I Like Acne for their innovation & courage to stand out with their ideas & designs.

Not all to my taste of course, but it’s not the intention either. This look is simple with the shirt sticking out under the jumper, the bomber jacket, wide pants & patterned socks.

Would you live here…

An amazing innovation behind this design & construction – an architectural challenge & certainly an amazing view – once you step out / or into the bedroom.

If you dare!

Umbrella stand

Yes, umbrella stand, how easy are they to find, really.

Not many nice designed that looks good & works well for various umbrellas – in various sizes. They are often in old fashioned style & heavy or bulky – at least the ones I’ve found.

This one fits my taste in both shape & colour. Steady & pleasing!

Cold blue

Beautiful colours in neutral beige-white scale with an equally beautiful bench – with  striped blue pad & matching curtain – unadorned & timeless.

Pavlova

Pavlova served with rum, lime & caramel – not the usual recipe we go for here in our house but worth the try.

Nice & inspiring setting for the cake, right!
