Umming and ahhing and new years resolutions

My new year resolution was to buy only nice things...... Might sound like a strange and very materialistic one but it is one that I think I will be able to stick to.

No more spending £45 in Primark on a bag full of clothes that will realistically shrink and look foul in 3 months time, instead I will spend the £45 on 1 quality item that will last and I can be proud to wear.

It also means buying good quality food and drink and home furnishings, although a trip to ikea every now and then is exeptable.

With this in mind I have now struck a dilema.........

It all started with the picture in my last post with the lovely large cushions on the sofa. I did a little google search and found this picture from Cherie City's Blog, and saw that beautiful cushion in the top right courner.

and then I came across the above picture from Print and pattern blog

I am sure you will agree it is beautiful and being from anthropologie I am sure it will be good quality. I have until the end of the day to decide as Millie in the London shop has put it aside for me.

Images from Indian Summer

I have been feeling a little Blue recently. England is in the darkest deepest winter and today has been so cold that we can not get the camper van out of the drive as it is frozen into a sheet of ice....brrrrr!

So today I am putting up my first blog of the year with some warm summery Indian interiors to inspire me.
