All Grown Up | Kip and Co

Its definitely no secret that i love bedding. Layered blankets, lush pillows and miss matched patterns and textures. Kip and co's AW14 collection has something for everyone. You can mix hero prints with a classic Ash Chambray sheet or you can go all out fun.

Bedding is a great way to give your room a mini make over - to brighten a dull room with bright linen and maybe a new bedside table or stool and lamp, and you have yourself a little guest retreat to be proud of. For the more adventurous, try pulling a beautiful pastel tone refrence (or something bright) from kip and co's range to paint your walls and use the bedding to complement or contrast for a super fresh look.

And while your perusing the bedding range make sure to take a look at their amazing new bath towels, to lift even the most boring of bathrooms.

Murobond and Porters paint have the perfect colours to sit side by side with your new Kip and Co linen.

Food for thought

Styling food is much more enjoyable than styling houses or fashion... because you get to eat it after, and sometimes even during. I loved doing this shoot because it was all super healthy food and the philosophy behind 'The Healthy Cook' is one i whole heartily agree with. The book is by Dan Churchill a friend of mine who also shared a reality TV experience on MasterChef. In a nutshell this shoot took 5 Days, 52 Recipes, 1 Broken Plate, 1 Broken Globe, 4 How-to Videos, 9,300+ photographs, 7 person production crew and i can't wait to see it finished in December!

South Melbourne // Level 4

Renovating a subpenthouse in South Melbourne was well out of my comfort zone. Give me a grungy beach house filled with character any day. But i must say i learnt a lot about new aesthetics and was able to create a complete new style vein for myself. 

Being the first post for my IN/SYDE blog an introduction is necessary... this will be where to find all things post block, from what i'm working on now, to interiors, exteriors, fashion, styling and beyond. I'm also a very visual person, so i tell most of my stories through pictures. Enjoy!
