Spring Weather







I can't believe it's already near the end of September but I am glad for all the warm weather.  Summer definitely feels like it's just around the corner.  This weekend we went out for brunch by the river at Bulimba and a wander through the Powerhouse farmers' markets where I picked up fruit and flowers.  James and I then strolled across to South Bank where we found a tranquil comfortable spot overlooking gardens and the water to while away the afternoon with cold glasses of Campari and soda and a chance for me to catch up on the latest issue of Vogue.  Clear blue skies, sunshine and water must be one of the most mood enhancing combinations, I wish I could always enjoy these kind of days as we did on Saturday. Here are a few snippets from around the apartment this weekend including market flowers in some old jam jars, our vintage sunburst clock in its new spot above the bamboo desk and my new straw hat I purchased at South Bank for a steal sitting happily at the entry.

Island Living at King's Treat



























The latest Lonny Magazine features one of David Flint Wood and India Hick's Harbour Island homes, King's Treat.  I love the style of these light airy interiors that speak of relaxed coastal living, not overly decorated but with lots of interesting features.  It definitely embodies my ideal island living!
