Daily inspiration, sandwich

Nowadays, food is often served in large portions. I think moderation is always the best. As this size of a dish that leaves room on the plate & that looks both tasty as appealing. Just had a lovely long breakfast at our street cafe with my three boys in the sun. Glorious weekend, here you are again.

Daily inspiration, shoes

Given that I NEVER use high heels, I must say that I often fall for high-heeled shoes, for some reason. Maybe simply because it’s stylish. I like laces & it’s especially nice when the straps crosses the ankles. Absolutely no platform shoes, to me, they look just clumsy – no, simple, elegant & appealing, even if it’s not for me, you know.

Daily inspiration, bedroom

Some things are easy at times. It does not take much to make something fancy or to be perceived as nice. But on the other hand, that which is simple, can be the very thing that is so difficult. This room is transformed to a charming place with few & simple accessories.

Let there be light

It darkens so fast here in Australia. Even though it is spring now & the evening light stays longer as we draw towards the summer. Now, there are some ways to make it nice & bright during the dark period of the year. I’ve become fond of light-strings. Don’t ask me where it came from – I just found myself on the search after those in shops & stores. It has to be the right model & size. I discovered loads of different design & variations. Many are rather large & clumpy while others are nicely done. But no ones looks like the one I have in mind.

I’ll have to look further when I have more time on hand. Until then, there’s quite a lot to be inspired by – if not in stores then at least online.

Daily inspiration, accessories

I am a big fan of accessories, whether it’s for the home, clothing and other paraphernalia. This image shows how nice it can become with kitchen accessories. They embellish the daily life such as this kitchen, in this case. Nice accessories combine business with pleasure, pure & simple – where business is the cooking then 🙂
