Interiors Wishlist





Over the last year of renovating aforementioned abode, my late night ritual of Net-a-Porter surfing has been replaced by online shopping, far more selflessly I like to believe, for furniture.

While the house was under construction I fell passionately in and out of love with hundreds of different items, pinning furiously to my pinterest boards all the many things I'd fill my empty spaces with once paint colours were chosen and floors selected. Yet a year on and my complete inability to make decisions have left us living a spartan existence with only a bed, a dining table and an unnecessary number of mismatched chairs picked up at Sunbury antiques market.

While I may not have committed fully to purchasing anything yet, the bulk of my interiors wish list comes from one place alone - the true mecca of all things cool in the world of furniture. Two words that make my husband run a mile (with my bank cards safely in his pocket), two words that make me glad I know my credit card details off by heart.... WEST ELM.

An American brand with only one London store (on Tottenham Court Road), West Elm may be less well known here in the UK than its competitors but its perfect designs and affordably-expensive prices mean it's a secret gem that won't be secret for long.

New Season Shopping...
































Those of you who follow me on Instagram (rachelingram14) will know that I am currently renovating my house in London, so when I'm not knee deep in fashion, I'm glued to pinterest and interiors blogs trying to find inspiration for every room in the house. 

We bought a wreck that hadn't been touched for over 50 years, which meant lots of the original Victorian features had been preserved. And now that most of the structural work has been done, it's time to choose flooring, bathrooms, tiles lighting and paint colours..

I found the website Future and Found a year ago and have had it bookmarked for a while, not only for inspo pics, but also their amazing stock of everything from stationary to furniture.
