Brigitte Bardot: La Madrague

Bardot's home of many years, La Madrague, featured in a few magazines of the time, to be fair, I'm not sure if all these pics are of La Madrague, but I love everything about these photos! The indoor plants, the wicker furniture, beaded curtains, sixties interior excess 

What a lounge! Gigantic fireplace, no television the central focus of the room, wahoo!

I know the press drove Bardot crazy at moments, all she wanted to do was look after her animals :)

This balcony is the best!! The carpets, the plants, the shape and size of it, being level with the trees, I love elevated places that glimpse into trees that make you feel you are up amongst them

What a fun little hideout in Saint Tropez, all you have to do is keep an eye out for Eddie and Patsy ;)

Carrie Bradshaw apartment

Before it was RUINED in the terrible Sex and the City movies

Schiaparelli Parfum poster!

Carrie was my least favourite character, but had my most favourite apartment.

Everything is nice and understated before it gets plastic-fantastic-asised 

It was warm and comforting, not loud and over done with flashy matchy-matchy. I dislike matchy-matchy so much, I call that style of decoration 'Personality Bypass'

The chair that Aidan made. (Oh the trials and tribulations that guy had to put up with)

I love the framed art on the bureau and the warm chocolate-y colours. 

It's not that i dislike SATC, it's just that it was relevant for it's time, and I think a lot of people have forgotten that. Social media has changed way too much. Blah blah, obvious Lena Dunham Girl's bridging the gap obligatory sentence yawn

Return to Wonderland

Alice pillowcases, my beautiful friend Jenny has these

Cut out Alice book art

Above is Tove Jansson's artwork, author of the Moomins, her illustrations for Alice and The Hobbit are beautiful

The above thumbnails are all the work of the mega talented Arthur Rackham

In the Alice tag, I will have different Wonderland bits and bobs I find in my travels on the internet

Assorted picture origins, Tumblr, Pinterest mainly

Banter Banners

So these have been doing the rounds on the intermanets, they are cute and would spruce up a room a tad. My favourite one reads 'it could be worse' you know, inner pessimist on the walls

They are available here, or you know, you could make your own, and maybe have fun in the process with glue and sparkles
