Beds aren't something I much cover on Homebug for the simple reason that looking up beds when you already have one isn't half as much fun as looking up all that other good stuff like chairs and lamps...
Sorry about the lack of updates lately - I've been experiencing connectivity problems AGAIN and, believe you me, if you get annoyed when there are no new posts on Homebug, I'm right there with you.Th...
Sorry, no photo of yours truly and my latest sartorial experiment this week. I've been using these snow days as an excuse to huddle up by the fire watching DVDs* and doing nothing as strenuous as pos...
If, like me, your furniture budget doesn't stretch much further than the wares of our Scandinavian overlords but you don't want your home looking completely homogenous and Ikea'd, you can of course r...
The happiest of New Years to you and yours from me and mine! I'm easing myself back into the online world after a lovely Christmas break filled with friends, family, pets, parties, travel and too muc...
My favourite contemporary illustrator, Sanna Annukka, has launched a new website with all-new limited edition screenprints and wonderful little wooden birds available to buy online. Anyone else exper...
Elaine over at Jaboopee asked if I'd share my Top 10 New York recommendations, and you know what? I'd love to! Based on my most recent trip, these are the things I heartily endorse and that I would d...
Yikes, I go away for a week, arrive home and realise that, eep, Christmas is a frickin' week away. I haven't sent out cards, bought gifts or done any baking practice-runs yet. What's more, my annual ...
This was our lovely little home during our stay in New York. It's the top floor of a brownstone in Bed Stuy, Brooklyn. Bed Stuy gets a bad rap, what with its catchy "Do or Die" dictum, but we found t...
I'm back from New York today and am sorting throught the oodles of pictures I took, so here's a quick outfit shot I came across among them. A day walking around New York dressed like this made me rec...
I watched Home Alone the other day (my favourite Christmas movie - I'm a dork) and, as ever, have ended up with John Candy singing "polka polka polka" stuck in my head. Every time I open my wardrobe ...
My Christmas decorations are up! If you want to see more of how I decorated for Christmas this year, don’t forget to buy this week’s Sunday Times, where you’ll find a Christmas feature on our house i...
I didn’t realise until I had bought this sweater and completely fallen in love with it that it was a little… familiar. Remember that feature Domino magazine used to run, “Turn this outfit into a room...
I’m off to New York in a couple of days and can’t wait. (Psst, I’ve scheduled posts for the days I’m away so that there’ll be new stuff on Homebug in my absence). We’re going to be staying in a beaut...
I think the definition of irony might just be someone who can't even find the time to blog about gorgeous DIY tapestry cushions thinking they will of course find the time to cross stitch such a cushi...
Sorry things have been so quiet on Homebug lately. Normal posting will resume in a day or two! Thanks for your patience and understanding!Zee x
Eek, because computer difficulties and deadlines still abound, I haven't had a chance to prepare a new Through The Keyhole post - sorry! Changes are happening in the Homebug household though, and nex...
My style ethos is pretty much the opposite of Coco Chanel’s – before leaving the house, I look in the mirror and put another thing on. At the moment, that thing is more often than not blue or a hat o...
I've never been any use at puns and I know that a post dedicated to the Eames Rocking Chair is crying out for some punnage, but alas, the best I can do is reference an unpopular Hawiian-themed Elvis ...
Sorry, this post is going to be very short as I'm up to my eyes with deadlines* and am having major computer drama. My brand new laptop has just plumb stopped working (way to go Dell! You suck! On ma...
It's Movember! That's right, the worldwide 'tache for cash month is here again, when men grow moustaches to raise money for charity. Do you know anyone taking part?A whole gang of my friends did it a...
I’m on sfgirlbybay today! I’ve long loved sfgirlbybay, and Victoria’s style has been an enduring inspiration to me. When our house didn’t have a lick of paint on the walls and we didn’t have a scrap ...
Me again!Whatever happened to the word “pullover”? You don’t hear it any more, do you? It’s all “knitted tank top” these days. Well I’m sticking with “pullover”. Or the American term “sweater vest”. ...
Because I live in a small, old house, I'm acutely aware of the unique difficulties that come with decorating and living in a small, old house. I'm always inspired by how how other people tackle simil...
British label Luella is one of my favourite fashion design houses. I love that it has a signature look season after season (quirky colours and offbeat girliness), and that it’s a look that can be emu...
Happy Halloween!
More footwear! I’m obsessing over flat ankle boots at the moment. I bought the Lexi Button Boot from Schuh during the summer. Aesthetically, they were perfect but as functional things that can be wor...
Irish writer Rosemary Mac Cabe’s blog became a must-read for me from the moment I first crossed its path. It’s well written, all encompassing and even a little divisive. You should check it out. Rose...
Yoo is a "global residential design brand" founded by Philippe Starck and John Hitchcox in 1999. If you scoot over to the Yoo website, you'll see that it's a very posh enterprise indeed, with the lik...
I mentioned lately that I was on the lookout for a large, vintage, fringed light shade for the den. Spurred on by a spot of lunch in Shebeen (lovely old lampshades a-go-go), I renewed my lampshade qu...
