Favourite Glassware To Fill With Flowers

At this time of year the majority of people are looking forward to spring and would quite happily say goodbye to winter. I definitely fall into this category of people. I love getting all bundled up for the colder months, and yes, the snow does look delightful for all of two minutes but I want Spring to hurry up and be sprung. 

My biggest tip for those feeling the winter blues is to adorn your house with as many flowers as possible. They're my weekly treat and I love to arrange them in any vessel I can get my hands on. I currently cannot stop pinning new floral arrangements to my Blooms Pinterest board. There are still quite a few homeware sales on so I've rounded up my favourite five glassware items, all perfect for holding either a whole bunch of flowers or a carefully selected sprig. 
Rose & Grey £2.95


Homebase £8.99
House-Envy £10.20
H&M £7
Zara Home £2.99
One particular idea that caught my attention was shared by Emma, on her blog A Quiet Style. She uses bulbs next to blooms in glass jars to create a very interesting display. It's simple yet so stylish.

How are you combating these harsh winter months? Do you have any tips on bringing Spring into your home early?

Pink Coat

Pink Coat Perfection - H&M
I found the perfect pink coat! Hurrah. 

This little H&M beauty is exactly what I've been looking for. I love the boxy, masculine look and it's complete juxtaposition with the baby pink colour. I spotted it just before I went away to Greece but I thought it wasn't wise to drop £50 just before my holiday. Now that I am back, payday cannot come quick enough so I can finally click 'Checkout' and give this coat some much needed autumn attention. 

Are you still a fan of the pink coat trend? What would you wear this pink coat with?

Pump It Up

#Shelfie
I found myself perusing the home pages of H&M just the other day and my basket filled up quite quickly. I've been on the look out for a soap dispenser and this little beauty caught my eye.  I fell for it's industrial and vintage look, with imperfect glass, metal pump and worn numbers and lettering.  For six English pounds, I could hardly say no.  It is now sitting pretty on my bathroom shelf alongside my cute ikea brush holder.  

Where do you stand when it comes to the industrial and vintage interior vibes?  Still love it or want it to go away?

Want / Need

Want/
This amazingly well-priced (£60!!) floor lamp from John Lewis is something that I want for my front room.  Ticks the industrial-chic box.  However, we are not decorating or updating our front room.


Need/
As previously mentioned I need to cosy-up our spare room and found H&M home is pulling out all the stops at the moment.  Love there affordable cushions.  Especially this cute feather one.
