I watched Coco Before Chanel last Saturday afternoon. It’s the story of Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel and her extraordinary journey. The film has had some conflicting reviews but I thought it was beautifully shot and was a feast for the eyes with gorgeous sets, costumes and hats. I love understated glamour and elegance and this film just oozes it.

Hi there – I have been thinking about how to start my blog for some time now. All the while I have had so many ideas for content so I’m going to jump straight in and just get started.
This blog is going to be about all things beautiful and design related aimed to inspire and help when creating your own work. I also hope to feature designers and artists – very exciting!!
