Daily inspiration, practical

A stylish bag or backpack rather, is not easy to find. I’m  not looking for the everyday use since I don’t have need of that. I would like to have one for short day trips but it must to look good, of course, otherwise it’s no point. Practical is important although not to bulky. What do you think about this one?

Daily inspiration, cottage

What a beautiful photo with spruce & pines in front of a black-painted cottage. Grass & bushes between the cottage & the fence makes the whole charming. It’s also a bit atmospheric with the exciting light.

Daily inspiration, bathroom

Time for a bathroom, don’t you think? After a long weekend in Melbourne & a very nice hotel, I got bathrooms on my mind. They are usually small but functional which this one was also. You rarely need bigger bathroom when staying at a hotel but it is the opposite at home. Anyway, I got stuck for this image for the simple but classy decor.

Daily inspiration, black lacquered

Instant love, that’s the only thing I can say. Black, laquered, simple but still a little beyond the usual. I like it when it’s a little straps & a combination of shoe & sandal. And with white sole – well, yes they’re truly irresistible.

Black & wood / 214

Wood used & worn down until it fades or new timber that has its color & strength left … all kinds of wood are a luxurious feel. A natural materials that live & breathe with the house & the individuals who use it. It is neat with all types of materials & colors … regardless what applies right now. Timeless, simply!  I’m very fond of wood & I use materials that I prefer, of course. It may well be pine, birch or oak, in the first place. Ash might be nice at times, but a little too lifeless for my taste. But as usual, it’s vital how to put it all together. The mix of furniture with flooring materials, colors, fabrics & lighting … in combination with the room size. Even the way the light falls from the windows. It may look a bit pale, yellow or rather, without natural freshness.

I’m right now very fond of darker wood combined with black. A feeling of the fifties without that specific style. Well, with that style too actually, since it’s very appealing. I’m more after the contemporary style with soul…not styled or just copied right off but well thought out & detailed. Take a look at the first two images below. That’s the feeling I mean. But by all means, different woods combined with black details – it always works.
