Homes speak volumes about their inhabitants. There are those that immediately make you feel comfortable upon entering, spreading some pleasant vibe be it for the use of certain aromas, or the choice of furniture and the way it’s arranged, others make you confused with their own confusion expressed by the mix of styles or piles of objects. Some are passionate about antiques, preferring the style of bygone eras, others go for a more up to date look, either modern with its steering towards use of more natural materials or minimalist, eliminating anything and everything that is considered excessive. And then there was mine, not sure in which group it actually belonged. Glowpear-Urban-Garden
Some may say that it's too expensive and too impractical to follow interior design trends with all the furniture pieces and decorative elements you need to change quite often in order to be trendy. After all, this isn't clothes we're talking about (and we all looove buying a new piece of clothes every now and then), so I can agree with the notion that it's somehow, expensive. But think of it this way: if you can't afford to change your furniture every year or so, then you most certainly can be creative and add a dose of trendiness here and there to refresh the appearance of your rooms and keep up with current trends. Just like in clothing, accessories are the key. However, if you don't have the proper base for your taste (likes and admirations in interior design), you won't be able to pull this off. Again, just like when you look to dress up trendy and fashionable, but still be you. So, lets tackle the process of becoming a trendy interior design guru who knows how to get the most of a room with few simple tricks. In the focus in this post: your living room.

What is love without a love mark on the neck to state “I'm taken”? Well, it is also love, only without a kiss bite, also known as a hickey. However, many couples like these bruises that result from aggressive kissing or sucking on a soft...

We're all witnesses of the boom of the fashion blogging trend; a tough competition between people with extraordinary style and skills for make up and hair along with a creative ability to combine clothes and accessories, resulting in a stunning vision worth millions of social media followers. That consequently meant covers in top fashion magazines, launching their own shoes, clothes and accessories line, modelling/brand ambassador deals and all kinds of fruitful business opportunities for the top cream of this new fashion group of people. For the vast fashion public this seemed like enough recognition to turn to the more approachable trend setters: the street style icons. Still basing their outfits on what major fashion brands dictate and using the opportunity less expensive brands offer, street stylers express their creativity in combining pieces and colours that make the point in their own unique way. From shoes to handbag - everything is by the latest trends but combined with a dose of the individuality and uniqueness of the fashionista, resulting in a dazzling fashion scene rich with styles for every taste. Among the other currently trending pieces from the fashionista's closet, in the focus on this blog post will be the latest womens handbags trends that vary from large, luscious designs, to small, extremely eye-catchy clutches.
Sick and tired of not being able to enjoy a good laugh while in the company of others just because you're not confident in the way your teeth look like? Are you looking forward to looking your best on your wedding day? Do you want to impress on your next important job interview? Or, you simply want to have an astonishingly white smile that will help you leave an unforgettable first impression? First impressions are quite important, and no matter what many might say - they do last.

With spring already here it's the perfect time to get your outdoor space ready to welcome the new season in style and comfort. Whether that be a fun barbecue with your friends, breakfast with your family or just enjoying with a nice cup of coffee...

 Antique Chinese FurnitureSome like it chic, some choose antique. It's not that antique is not chic, it's just that it's much more than that. Antique pieces of décor and furniture, especially those inspired by the rich Chinese culture, are in fact story tellers of bygone eras and I howl at their beauty like a wolf in heat. Asian-inspired interior might not be everyone's cup of tea, but this type of design has certainly nested in the homes of many Australian old souls. As of late, I am drawn to thinking that if I were to have it my way, antique would have been the norm that’s taking the design world by storm and this is how it all started.

Just like working with kids is demanding but very fulfilling, so is working with the elderly. It is demanding of patience and skills and very rewarding because of all the beautiful stories, pieces of wisdom and words you're eventually going to hear (among other things,...

A home is the reflection of every owner's personality and the way we arrange the interior can speak volumes about us, based on the furnishing style chosen, the decorative items, as well as the ways they are arranged and organised. The same goes for the...

Over the past few years more and more people have started to cut sugar out of their diets because it seems that it is not good for us at all. This has led to people looking for alternatives to get their sugar hit. You can...
