I’m truly honoured that The Pink House was chosen as the cover story for this Saturday’s homes supplement ‘Bricks & Mortar’ in The Times. With thanks to Katrina Burroughs for writing such a flattering account of my eclectic life and home, and to Susie Lowe for the ever-incredible photos.

Thanks to Fabric Magazine for featuring me, my house and my book Pink House Living in their most recent issue.

There was only one possible venue for the launch party of my first book, Pink House Living, and that was sketch in London’s Mayfair. A huge pink THANK YOU to everyone involved; it was a truly fabulous evening - here are some pics of the night…

Here I am on the cover of The Sunday Times Home matching my Bella Freud jumper to the pink of Farrow & Ball 'Nancy's Blushes' front door. Inside there's a rare shot of all the Pink House Dwellers on our spanking new Sofas & Stuff 'Wadenhoe' corner sofa...
I went live on BBC Radio London's Jo Good Show and didn't make a total tit of myself, hooray! Here I am with the lovely Jo Good and journalist Patricia Nicol after we discussed the ins and outs (and ups and downs) of moving out of - and back to - London.
How about I tell my story of the night at the Kensington Design Museum through the medium of photo captions? It might not be entirely accurate, but it could be vaguely amusing...
Extremely honoured to have my Edinburgh home and Amara Interior Blog Awards 2017 'Best Written Blog' win in The Sunday Times' print edition on 29 October, as well as online.
It was a special moment when the very fabulous Sheerluxe (a site I have admired/drooled over for many months) chose The Pink House's Instagram account @pinkhouseliving (which, I'm proud to say, has more than 35,000 followers after less than 2 years) as one of its Best Instagram Accounts for Interiors in 2017.
When the good people at the House & Garden Festival asked if I'd like to be one of three UK interior bloggers creating a Style Room at the event later this month, I was all, HELL YES!
There's no point trying to be cool about it; I'll confess that having my home featured in an interior magazine has been a dream for me since buying The Pink House. So here it is - my 10-page feature in Good Homes' February issue, including a shot of me and my escaping knee...
Editing this issue of i-on (Scotland's largest lifestyle magazine) was a hefty tick off the bucket list: not only to be able to edit a print mag, but for it to be about interiors. And I'm especially proud of the cover...

I'm a sucker for a sensational bathroom. So when Ciara Elliott, editor of Essential Kitchen Bathroom Bedroom magazine (a mag which itself has an Amara IBA-winning blog) asked me to write this feature I didn't bath to think about it for a second and said YES; water great idea...
We're not exactly minimalists here at The Pink House, and clearly news of this had reached the London Evening Standard, as this Christmas one of their journalists got in touch to interview me about my more-is-more approach to Christmas decor.
Being featured on Apartment Therapy is nearly as good as that time when I found a solid chocolate United biscuit - you remember; the amazing ones that could be broken into three pieces and had little honeycomb pieces in the chocolate, and then biscuit in the middle...?
