I love big vibrant cities, clothes shopping and quirky places and Palermo Soho in Buenos Aires, Argentina ticks all of these boxes.  Correct me if I’m wrong but I’d imagine the area to be a little similar to London’s Soho or Greenwich Village in NY, full of interesting little places to visit.

Vain Boutique, a stunning little hotel in Palermo Soho looks like one of the homes you might see featured on Grand Designs!  It’s modern, minimalist and bright and the large glass windows allow-in lots of natural light.  It looks gorgeous…

I love the different floor levels

I hope the neighbours can’t see!!

The squishy headboard is what makes this room look so luxurious and inviting

Matching the cushion material with that of the chair cover adds an air of luxury and shows attention to detail.  Although the decor has been kept mostly white, the wooden flooring, colourful flowers and soft mood lighting add warmth and comfort.

It’s a given really that Lulu Guinness was going to have a fabulous home… talk about stating the obvious.  I love her quirky, eclectic style, her arty approach and her innovative ideas.  I could move straight into her Victorian terrace (although I think she might consider me a little odd if I did!)

Shopping should be a pleasurable experience, right?  After all, we are parting with our hard-earned cash and we need to feel inspired.  I  stumbled upon the Caravan website recently and I love its crafty, ‘handmade’ look.  A perfect nominee for our Shop of the Week!  I imagine their shop in Shoreditch, London, to be just as enticing…

If your style is more retro than ‘right now’, you’ll love the home accessories on offer.  From goose lamps to bug magnets to pineapple wall sconces, it’s a website sure to brighten-up your day!

In the right setting, there’s no denying that these Stamp Rugs look totally amazing!!  Of course, to have one of these, ideally you would have a modern home full of quirky home accessories.  Use one in the conventional way as a rug or pin one to the wall and display as funky artwork!

What do you think- are they a little too OTT?  At least it gives you the opportunity to put your own stamp on your home interior (sorry- couldn’t resist!)

Contact the seller for prices and to order- I have a feeling they’ll cost more than a stamp.
