Bright, breezy and perfectly styled in Stockholm

Bright, airy and breezy and beautifully styled. This Östermalm, Stockholm apartment on the market through Alexander White is the perfect way to start the week!

Favourite items? Mine is the the beautiful leather chesterfield and the vintage fan. Incidentally, our new bedroom is at the top of the house and gets extremely hot in the summer - perfect excuse to invest in a vintage fan - any tips on where to source one?

I'm currently in London (my home city!) for a few days. I love being back, it's such a fab city in the spring time. Yesterday I spent a day in London fields, East London home of the Columbia Road Flower Market and a great local pub!

Did you get up to anything fun?

PS Tomorrow I'll be hosting a very exciting give-away so don't forget to stop by for your chance to win!

A Swedish lesson in styling

HELLO FRIDAY! We made it! yay! This apartment is a lesson in styling. So very simple yet so very interesting. Colours and key pieces stand out against a backdrop of large white rooms with high ceilings, beautiful original flooring and large windows.

My favourite things: the portrait painting in the hallway and the bright, sunny, yellow eames chair! Yours?

Exciting news: Design Collectors are now stocking Artek (I love their tea trolley and Golden Bell light) and Thonet (get 15% of with code MYSCAN). To celebrate I'll be holding a give-away here on My Scandinavian Home next week.....so keep an eye out!

For those of you who understand Norwegian (or simply like looking at a fab home on film) check out Nina's home from Stylizimo's blog on Norway's TV 8 last week here!

Are you up to anything exciting this weekend? I'm heading to London on Sunday for a few days. It's been ages since I've been there so I am very excited!

I hope you all have a lovely weekend! See you on Pinterest / Facebook / Instagram in the meantime!!
