Do you need to renew your interior?

With spring, you get the urge for a more clear and ventilated space. More than ever my motto remains “Less is more“. Here are some simple tips to refresh a bedroom, without transforming your home in a construction site. 

We begin by changing the position of the bed (yes you can move it!). Test the new direction one night, to check if you sleep as well as before. No need to change the direction, if it gives you nightmares! Lol! Photo 1: bed covered with a Brazilian macramé bedspread.

Then we empty “everything”. For example, if you have any pictures on the walls. Take them off the walls to see how it looks without, or placing them otherwise (on the floor for the large frames like in an art gallery). Or by changing them with new frames, photos, paintings … Photo 3 and the last photo of this post: the stunning drawing in Indian ink of the artist Moira Marcantei.

Do the same for the furniture and ornaments, keep only the necessary. Ideally, it should not be electronic, television and plant in a bedroom. Without falling into the ultra minimalism, when traveling, shop things useful for your home. Photo 5: on a wall, a Greek key ring against the evil eye and a leather label for a suitcase. On the last picture: African bowls for storing makeup.

Last advice, change the sheets, curtains (especially if they are dark and thick) and / or lamps. Choose light colors, light fabrics or patterns in relation to your new room. Like your clothes in your wardrobe: store and use your linens according to the seasons. Photo 2: short bathrobe for summer and white bath towel. Photo: 2, 4 and 6: play with fabrics. Here are an embroidered flower bedspread with a Brazilian macramé bedspread.

Hermès: Presentation of the Accessories Collection Spring-Summer 2011 (Part 2)

Here the second part of my yesterday post about the presentation of the collection Spring-Summer 2011 of the Maison Hermès. My crush: the smart clever« IPAD station » in Swift Calfskin. Such a shame there is no station for net book! My other favourites: the titanium watch, a madness, M. Hulot (Jacque Tati)’s espadrilles, the stripes belt and this xsmall blue saddle (picture below). And at the end : pictures of the lunch, with the Dutch journalists.
