BIG BOLD FLORAL !

 

One of my favorite types of pattern for upholstery, wall paper, curtains, etc is a big bold bright floral pattern ! this can be added to a room in a small way using cushions or a new duvet set or in a more permanent way buy investing in a beautifully made pair of curtains or some stunning wall paper.This season is especially good for finding big bold and bright floral prints as they lend themselves so well to summer and spring and add that bright summer feeling to your room !

These are a few examples of interiors that have used bold floral designs to their advantage.

These are some examples or amazing wall paper from designer guild :

My favorite mascaras - Part 3 - Maybelline - Lash sensational

This is the Third part in my favorite mascara reviews

My favorite mascaras

Lancome - Grandiose mascara - £24.50

Benefit - Roller lash -  £19.50 

Maybelline - Lash sensational - £5.99

Maybelline - Lash sensational - £5.99

Lash sensational is the most affordable of the three, the brush is also the largest of the three, it is a curved brush with fine rubber bristles and it is meant to make lashed look multiplied and fuller the formula is really smooth and goes on to lashes clump free !  the mascara really does separate lashes and also makes them look fuller this mascara is a really good go to daytime mascara.

This is the second post in my favorite mascara reviews

Maybelline - Lash sensational - £5.99

Benefit - Roller lash -  £19.50 

Benefit roller lash is the second most expensive in the test, the formula of this mascara feels quite thin and it really does not clump when your putting it on, it gives a really natural look and feels light on the eyelashes. The brush is rubber again and covered in a lot of tiny bristles, this mascara is quite black but i think the thinner formula leaves lashes looking quite natural and separated this is a good daytime mascara, this was a samples of the mascara but i think i would purchase it again at the full price .

Interior Design Style: Part 3, "And it was all yellow"!

Yellow in interior design

Part three of my interior design style is going to be talking about using yellow in interior design ! Recently yellow has made a bit of a come back in the interior design world and has become quite trendy but i find people are still a bit weary about breaking out of the magnolia and beige and start injecting some colour into their lives !

 I'm going to show some examples of easy ways to brighten up your home using yellow !

 

 The first way would be to go all out buy a yellow sofa and really make an impact in the space, this would work well if your space is a blank canvas it would become the focal piece in the room, and could bring some life back to a plain space this could work well if your renting and cant paint !

 

 Another way would be to add a pop of colour in a slightly less costly way would be to paint something you already have, this is something you could easily do  and could look as effective as this amazing shelving unit !

This last way is a really easy way to change up a kitchen these industrial stools bring personality and colour into a very modern and cold space these are easily found with a quick google search and come in a range of colours as well !

I think yellow is an amazing colour to bring some light and personality to any space, all of these images can be found on my pintrest along with a full board of inspirational images of yellow decor !
