HABITAT LAMP LOVE

There's a new thing of celestial beauty in my kitchen. And it's my wonderfully imposing new lampshade from the (always excellent) Habitat lighting collection. 

Our flat is brand spanking new, so it's been a joy to add personality to make it our home. Pieces like this Photographic lampshade are what makes it ours. And I bloody love it. 

We've popped in the fanciest lightbulb I've ever bought, that perfectly highlights the delicate inner details of its reflective inner - behold, tis really a thing of beauty:

Photographic Lampshade, from Habitat, price £90

A big thanks for the Habitat team for gifting me this lovely shade. 

MOSEY HOME

Loving these vintage furniture pieces picked out with a stylist's eye by Mosey Home. This new online store and Finsbury Park based shop (on the list to be hunted out soon) has a proper nice selection of vintage furniture, kitchenalia, lighting and more. Lots of pleasing things that would actually fit in nicely to real home. Always a winner with me. Could happily find space for any of these lovelies - with the Midwinter Tea Set already in line with my current craze for grid patterns. 

OBSESSED: CONFETTI RIOT

The name of this shop alone deserves an OBSESSED post: Confetti Riot. My kinda rebellion. However it's their Cactus print cushion that is the actual subject of my obsession this week. I'm all kinds of crazy about its simple block print style along with the cool combination of blush pink and lush cacti green. 

Green and Peach Cactus Print Pillow, cotton and linen, price £24.29 from Confetti Riot at Etsy

MONDAYS ARE FOR MUGS: ARIA

Oh la la Walala! Launched for this year's London Design Festival these most excellent mugs were designed by Camille Walala, the queen of modern Memphis inspired design, especially for Aria. Optimistic brights mixed with monochome in bold lines, dots and dashes. Love.

LIGHTING PICKS

I've got a thing about lighting. I think it's something to do with the nights drawing in and wanting to make my gaff seem super cosy and warm (even before the woollen blankets come out). 

When I've not been spending far too much on one (marvellous) lightbulb I've found myself trawling the web for lovely lampshades. So here's my perfect pick from the ever excellent Etsy:
