A fresh, white Stockholm apartment

Hello Tuesday! I think it's time for a fresh white home, we haven't had one yet this year and you know how much we all love white?! This Stockholm apartment is currently for sale in Stockholm. I love the white against the beautiful original wood flooring, how about you?

And how cool is that lamp in the bedroom and hallway (any idea where it's from?), it's not something I'd normally go for but it really softens the space don't you think?

Other favourite white homes of mine can all be found here (warning - there's pages of them!). 

One of my pet favourites at the moment is the mix of white and gold. Just before Christmas I was lucky enough to receive a gift from Shlomit Ofir. The beautiful Alma bracelets are part of her Northern Lights jewellery collection which is inspired by Scandinavian design, scenery and lifestyle. My other favourite pieces are the bicycle necklace and Sif earrings (it's so worth taking a look, there are just so many fab pieces!). You can find Shlomit Ofir on Facebook, Pinterest or sign up their newsletter here. 

I hope you have a lovely Tuesday!

Beautiful danish spaces by House Doctor

The more days I go into the new year the more I realise 2014 is going to be great! I feel so inspired by fresh starts at this time of the year. There's also all the new collections starting to appear, and nothing warms my heart more than the first signs of Spring in a home. So today's inspiration comes from the fab danish brand House Doctor and their hot off the press Everyday 2014 collection.

Take home inspiration for me? It's got to be the nautical striped day bench with pale blue cushions. So cute!  How about you?

On Friday I showed a home for those who need a little new year de-clutter inspiration (me). I've become even more inspired by this since reading The Happiness Project (have you read it?) in which de-cluttering the home is seen as the very first step in the path to improved happiness.....pass me the bin bags! Oh and if you need any more prompting  - how about this nautical striped storage bag to match the day bench?!

More Danish inspiration required for a Monday? how about this Danish oasis in Cannes, this home of a Danish stylist or one of the most popular homes I've shown here: A danish home on a hill.

Have a lovely day!

A de-cluttered monochrome Swedish home

If I do one thing this year with my home it's de-clutter. My sister and her family have just stayed and I was so embarrassed every time someone opened a cupboard - something would always come flying out! So my mission is to do a big clear out, but when?! Does anyone else have this problem? Do you feel organised at home? This Swedish apartment can serve as my de-clutter inspiration, it's just so clean, practical and neat.

Apart from the neat factor, my favourite thing about this black and white Swedish home are the lamps. The wall lights are such a practical way of getting light to a space where you need to move the light around such as in my sitting room. As you know the Flos 265 has been a favourite of mine since forever. Will this be the year I finally get one?!

Got to love the Eames RAR too - I think this and the DAW look best in black (you can always get 15% off these with code MYSCAN :).

After some more monochrome inspiration? What about this Stockholm home with a mid-century touch and this Malmö home - so fab in their own black and white way.

I received an e-mail yesterday from the clothes designer behind the dress I showed in my 'all that glitters' new year's eve piece. Jeffrey Monteiro designed the fab piece in 2011 for Bill Blass. I would love a party dress like that, wouldn't you? So exciting to hear from the talented designer himself.

Have a lovely weekend and see you Monday!
