I arrived in London yesterday for an over night stay. It's always a treat to come home not least because my Mum is the best cook in the world!

Love that!)....

A Swedish country-style Christmas

Here in Sweden people general start decorating over the first weekend of advent so I thought we're in need of a little inspiration, what do you reckon? This beautiful Swedish country home of stylist and photographer Marie Delice Karlsson and her family is beautifully decorated using a green and white theme.
