We attended a wedding yesterday and I wasn't sure what to wear. I have some nice black dresses but wanted something a bit brighter. I bought the top and skirt in H&M and had a pair of black shoes and a blazer already so it was pretty simple but different for me. It was a bit more casual than I would usually wear to a wedding but it was comfy. Hope you are all having a nice weekend. The sun was shining here this morning but it is getting dull once again, will Spring time ever come, the buds are only coming on the tress now. Have you any nice plans for the weekend

Picking fabric patterns...
I am currently trying to pick some fabric for roman blinds in my guest bedroom which I posted about here. Have a look at the images of the prestigious textile collections below and let me know which you think I should pick. The guest room is painted white with white furniture so I hope to get the blinds made along with two cushions and maybe a bed runner? So have your pick and let me know what one you like?

Pop of Pink in your Home...
Do you have any pink in your home? Do you think it is too girly? I spotted these cute pink items and the adorable badger cushion (I think it is a badger) all from H&M Home. Unfortunately H&M do not have home accessories in their stores here in Ireland. Have any of you bought any of their homewares? I think some of them are really stylish and very affordable too :) Keep up the good work H&M and bring the homewares to more of your stores, particularly here in Ireland!
Weekend Wishes...
It's the weekend already.. How the weeks are flying by. Have you any nice plans for this weekend? It's a quiet Saturday night in for me, drinking tea at the fire watching TV. Sorry I don't have a more interesting post for you, but the weather is very dull so it is difficult to get any nice photographs. Happy Weekend to you all...
My weekend at home...
This weekend I didn't go anywhere.. I did lots of spring cleaning yesterday, washed all the windows and cleaned the garage. I walked to the village for some groceries and also spent time on the farm walking along the lake shore. Today I relaxed, read some magazines and had family visit. It is soon time to feed the calves. What did you get up to this weekend? Sometimes it is nice to just relax and spend time at home...
To wallpaper or not to wallpaper...
Do you like wallpaper? I have none in my new home yet! Above are some of my favourite patterns from Cath Kidston and Laura Ashley mainly. What type of wallpaper do you like? Do you have wallpaper at home? I would love to see some images of it. I think it is nice for a feature wall rather than a whole room. I'm thinking of putting some in my guest bedroom (mentioned with images in my previous post)
