British Chic


when we first saw this photo on pinterest, my boyfriend and i fell in love with the idea of having a striped wallpaper in our hallway. tomorrow our laura ashley wallpaper will finally be hung. even though the color of the stripes isn't identical with the color of the wallpaper on the inspirational picture we are more than excited to see the final result. we want the whole apartment to look exceptional. especially i will not be satisfied with everything that's average. in my opinion, the hallway is as important as any other room. the hallway is the first thing visitors will see and it will therefore leave a strong impression.

laura ashley wallpaper. although it doesn't look like expected (we ordered the wallpaper online) i love the look and feel of it. the wallpaper features pearlescent inks which make it more than unusual.
a gold zara home vase. there's nothing better than fresh flowers in a beautiful vase.
 an ikea shoe cabinet. i've already put together half of the pieces today.
black photo frames from ikea. i cannot wait to put b/w holiday pictures in these frames...
 a scent surround diffuser by jo malone. on of my all-time favorite scents: english pear and freesia. fresh and a little flowery.

Quanto costa?


'how much is it?' or 'quanto costa?', this is probably the most important sentence in a shopping metropolis like milan. last year when i went to the states i knew exactly what i wanted to buy and where i would find it. therefore, i've decided to do a little research for milan beforehand. i've selected 10 shops that my sister and i need to visit the next days.

1. brandy melville. thank you sophie for telling me about this brand! i love the style of the clothes.
2. & other stories. a h&m affiliated company with a lot of edgy clothing. probably the shop i'm looking forward to most.
3. sephora. my favorite cosmetics store.
4. kenzo. ever seen the nice new era x kenzo baseball caps? i want to try one! so much better than ordering stuff like this online...
5. ladurée. a parisian macaroon store. however, why wait for our next paris trip when i can get these sweets in milan too?
6. marc by marc jacobs. marc, you are my hero!
7. zara home. zara home offers the nicest accessories for your bedroom, bathroom, living room and kitchen. you can also order everything online but it's always great to see the things in real life first.
8. oysho. i want a bathrobe! as the weather went from summer to winter in a day.
9. abercrombie & fitch. i didn't buy anything from a&f in nyc but i might find something from abercrombie in milan.
10. muji. awesome japanese items for decoration.

happy shopping everyone!
