    It’s official and booked. I’m heading to Rome this Summer for a holiday with the famalam.

    It’s quite a departure from my original plans to visit one of the Nordic countries – and literally the complete opposite temperature too lol – but I’m excited to soak up some sunshine and get my historical-geek hat on too (I’m a total sucker for classical history, it’s like my one regret not taking Classics for A Level).Not only that but I am crazy excited for the ridiculous amount of Italian food I will be consuming whilst out there and, yes, I am expecting to arrive back into the UK about a stone heavier for it – totally worth it.

  • Haul | Regenade Craft Fair + Tiger

    It’s been a while since I’ve done a haul here on the blog, but as I took an impromptu trip to London to meet up with Skye and Erin a few weeks ago to take a gander at the stalls at the Renegade Craft Fair and picked up a few bits I thought I’d share.

    First up a little woven plant pot cover from ethical company Tibeb Artisans Co. which sells handmade homeware and fashion to support wildlife conservation, sustainable fashion and artisan cooperatives. The basket I picked up is one their hand-woven collection sourced from women’s groups in Kenya. It’s wonderfully simplistic and looks rather fab with my little evergreen I brought from home over Easter.

    I also couldn’t resist picking up these adorable illustrated pocket mirrors from the Goodnight Boutique. I was already a big fan of their after basically stalking their Etsy store for the past year. Aren’t they cute?

    I finally got my hands on one of Ella Masters‘ super gorgeous prints and me being utterly predictable I picked the New York one ^_^ I just need to get myself a frame and I can get this bad boy on display!

    After browsing the fair we headed toward Spitalfields Market, where I audibly gasped at the fact they have a Tiger store there now (I am an easily pleased soul). I saw these headphones last time I was in London and didn’t cave in then, but I seriously couldn’t resist this time – how could I, they’re only £7!

    Guys…am I getting old? I’m writing a blog post on plants…
    In all seriousness though, Spring seems to have kicked me up the butt and now I’ve found myself seeking out those little green shoots that are echoing in the new season.
