A few more weeks to enjoy the last days of Summer in pretty white dresses, doing yoga on the beach first thing in the morning before tackling work, taking bookings in our house in France for an Indian summer while working on our Autumn Winter collection and Xmas. Enjoy while it lasts… 1. This dress reminds me of this one 2. Norm 69 3. Universal Blueprint 4. look of smart
And just like that, a crappy day turns into a wonderful one… The weather is really beautiful in France but I got up feeling down by the perspective of flying back to London tonight and leave Steve and Mila behind. I should be used to it by now, I have been travelling between London and Bordeaux quite a few times this year but nope! It really doesn’t get easier and I can’t wait for this school year to be over and us to be together again. On the plus side, I just found out that the French Air traffic controllers are on strike and my flight has been cancelled which means that I get to spend 4 more days with my little family and that, my friends, has cheered me up big time! //1.

Given the current state of our home, I’m glad I started decluttering our home before the renovations but… I almost wish I had started 12 months ago…We had to clear the whole of the second floor and fit the content in the rooms below and I never consider myself a hoader but wow…its amazing how much you can fit in cupboards!Let’s say that our home is far from looking like this at the moment and I will aim to list more things here over the weekend.The good thing is that our kiwi builders are doing an amazing job which is a relief and I’m starting to really enjoy the whole clearing out process…I’m very much looking forward to a clean slate, a new wardrobe and a new, white home. What are you up this weekend? I’m taking Mila to her first singing lesson :-) Not that we expect her to be the next Katy Perry but it’s something she is really keen to do and we think it’s a good way to give her the confidence to speak out …
Gosh I love a Bank Holidays weekend!!Besides the obvious 3-day weekend, I love the delightful, exciting feeling that we are skiving work on Monday and have an extra day to potter around our homes and do some creative things… And pottering around is definitively what I’m going to do this weekend.We are finally starting the renovations in our home in 2 weeks (yeah!!!) so this weekend, the boys are taking our kitchen apart and I will clear our home further (expect a few things to pop up on Instagram and Ebay!) Talking about clearing, my sister sent me this article from Oprah Does this clutter make my butt look fat?. Being an emotional eater, it stroke a few chords with me but it also has some interesting points about how we hang onto things of the past and clutter our lives with old emotions.It is true, isn’t it!?Since January, I have been clearing things we’ve accumulated for the past 9 years when Mila was born. Although I noticed that sometimes throwing stuff, was raising a great …
