LET Liv

I wanted to share with you a new online homeware & accessories store that I've discovered, based in my childhood home of Wellington, New Zealand. As soon as I saw their products I knew that LET Liv was my kind of store! Beautiful, quality products with a Scandinavian feel, like their wood grain Alarm Dock, and Swedish Dream Sea Salt Soap; and a splash of colour and touch of the exotic in their block printed Quilts and Moroccan Poufs. Oh, so much loveliness to choose from, and international shipping too.

These gorgeous 100% cotton Jaipur quilts are block printed and handmade in India. Available in three sizes, baby, single and queen, you can have one in every room.

I have one of these stunning leather Moroccan poufs in fuchsia, and it makes a fabulous statement in our living room, as well as being a great footstool, or seat for the kids.

This Alarm Dock would look amazing on your bedside table. Place your iPhone or iPod Touch into the dock and run a flip clock app, for a very cool bedside clock.

Swedish Dream Sea Salt Soap contains mineral rich salts fresh from the sea to provide you with dreamy soft and healthy skin.

I love these beautiful Glass Beads handmade by local women in Kanpur, India. They have a braided cotton piece at the back of the neck for comfort, and come in a range of six colours.

And you know how I love my black & white stripes, well this 100% cotton Floor Rug, made in India, looks fantastic in any room in the house.

Sam has really taken to our rug. Just moments before she was sprawled out across it, but (like her Mumma) she's a bit camera shy, so moved when she saw me trying to photograph her :)

Fashion and Interiors

You'll often find your fashion sense and interior style are similar - Boho babe, Chanel chic, maybe a bit of both... I love this bedroom because the fashion has spilled over into the room, and is a key element in the styling. 

A cleverly constructed wardrobe made from a rod, two plaited belts and a drop of fabric, has the gorgeous clothes on display, and acts as a room divider (check out the shoes hanging from the roof!). Shoe boxes are piled up for a bedside table, and jewellery is hung up instead of artwork. The desk area has the same 'messy but stylish' feel, and you can tell by the mood board that it's owner is definitely a fashionista.

Joules Can Mix A Pattern

You know how much I love colour and pattern, especially together - 'mix, don't match' I say! And the bedroom has to be my favourite room in the house. For most adults, it's a sanctuary, and for kids, a place to have fun and express their personalities. So I was really excited when I came across this gorgeous range of bedding from Joules in the UK. Their 100% cotton duvet covers are all reversible, so you can choose which side you have up, and both sides compliment each other beautifully.

The Piggy Farm cover is so cute with the adorable farmyard scene on one side and polka dots on the reverse. All the pillowcases and cushions are available separately so you can customise your look.

What little boy wouldn't love this Circus cover, complete with clowns on unicycles, performing lions and elephants, and the circus top stripe on the reverse?!

One of my favourites, the English Garden would be perfect for little girls and big girls alike, with English garden florals and candy stripes in the most delectable colours.

And how about the Lulu Floral cover for the spare room?! Nautical stripes and pretty blue and white floral. I love the floral side up, but you could flip it over to the stripes when your brother comes to stay.

Not to be forgetten, the furry members of the family can be equally as comfy and stylish in their own gorgeous pet bed. So cute in a range of styles, sizes and fabric.

Quintessentially English, the Joules clothing range was designed with outdoor living and British traditions in mind. You'll find British classics like wellies and smart women's blazers (which, by the way, are rocking the runway currently). Team them with one of their pretty floral dresses - Kate Moss will be jealous! And the best thing is, Joules ships all over the world - brilliant, get shopping then!
