There's nothing like a little Autumn winter browse while it's pouring with rain outside. Especially when we're meant to be entering the summer season (Welcome to the UK!). This week I attended the AW17 House of Fraser press preview at the London Vinyl factory in Soho.

The great thing about House of Fraser's home collection is there's always something for everyone. Whether you're a rustic, country farmhouse type. Or if you're into dark interiors with touches of retro 70's styling, they have brands to suit everyones home style.

After contemplating with the idea of painting all of the walls and ceiling the darkest of greys, I decided against the idea.  Mainly because of the cost, time and the mess it would make.
