Colours of Autumn || In the studio and day to day moments

I don't hide the fact that I absolutely LOVE autumn. It's my fave season, the time to refresh and reboot as the leaves fall. I take the most photos in Autumn, last October I took 1500 pics in the one month.
Here are some of my absolute fave autumnal pieces that kick off my style as we head into winter. Some of these pics are in my studio and some are moments captured in my day-to-day life. An aspect that always shines through with my brand as I literally design fashion accessories that I want and need as I go through new and different phases in my life

Countryside escape || Callow Hall - The Peak District

Countryside escapes are becoming more and more popular as we all seek green space more then ever. Callow Hall's beautiful green surroundings (35 acres to be precise) do not disappoint. Tucked away in the Peak District, this beautiful Victorian house with the most amazing décor has 15 individually designed bedrooms, treehouses and woodland hives. 
For me, the décor is EVERYTHING! The manager of the hotel explained all about the beautiful hand painted wallpapers and signage crafted by local artisans. A backdrop that I mostly gawped at throughout our meal. There are quirky corners with cosy sofas and soft furnishings, arty books on every table and the most elaborate and fancy rugs on most floors.

Last days of summer || Pampas and Petals

Is there one more mini heat wave to be had yet? Time will tell . . . 
In the mean time I've been making the most of the sunny days in knit striped shorts from Sainsburys, an oversized linen shirt from asos and minimal 
chanel-esque asos flats.

Autumn décor - blue and white chinoiserie chic pumpkins

It's the height of summer so naturally I'm focusing all my attention on the next pending season . . . AUTUMN! The best season of them all! I don't know why but my creative brain feels so much more inspired in the build up and during this season. It's an exciting time for the change of tone in fashion and home décor. It's a bit like the excitement of the September issue being released!
If you follow me on insta, you'd have seen my trip to Homesense a few weeks ago as their Fall décor was already in stock and selling fast!
There's no better time like the present to start planning my autumn home décor, I usually have a centrepiece and this year, this is what I'm thinking . . .
