Red hair and sequins

Remember when I said I was going to grow me hair ad keep it brown? Well I didnt. Instead I moved in to a flat that has beautiful autumnal leaves around the windows. So instead I decided to do a short side a lá the Galmouria and dyed it a red the colour of grenadine.

The days are shorter, the nights are darker. I want to sparkle.

My whole life Ive been hooked on changeing the house to suit the seasons. Id spend hours pouring over my moms "country living" magazinez, collecting wildflowers and drying leaves, longing for dry summers and winters so I could recreate the candle light dinner parties and picnics.

.

My nesting instinct is strong, any new room I move into is immediatly filled with lamps, scarves, pictures, all the little objects I have picked up, grown attached, or carted from house to house and back forth from ireland with me over the year.


Christmas is of course the ideal time for someone like me, an oppertunity to go over the top and decorate without anyone telling me not too! Heres some fotos from my house last year...
I wonder what ll do this year :-)
