    Decor That Makes You Go “Is It Kind Of Purple In Here?”

    October 17, 2019 /

    Purple, it’s a kind of unloved color. It’s not quite feminine like pink, but it’s not quite masculine like blue. It’s a kind of forgotten middle child. But does it have its place in the modern home? If you love to experiment with decor then yes it does. Even if you’re not too keen on the color, it can fit in with many other modern tones that you see all-around your home. The key is pairing it with colors that either elevate it or allow it to blend in. it’s also where you implement this color as well. You’re not going to paint your front door purple anytime soon, but…

    Why The Finishing Touches Matter So Much

    September 2, 2019 /

    Image by Pezibear from PixabayΒ  No one wants a half-done job; no one even wants an almost finished job. Attention to detail is key, and when you’re doing any project, you should want to do it right and see it through to the end, and this is why the finishing touches matter so much. When renovating your home, finishing touches are possibly even more important; your home is where you live, it’s where you spend most of your time, it needs to keep you safe, keep you warm and make you happy. If you were to have a new roof, and you didn’t put the final finishing touches to it…

    When you are going back to the drawing board on your interior design, there are a lot of parts of the home which are likely to come under sudden scrutiny.

    Small Changes To Your Home That Will Make A Big Difference!

    April 17, 2019 /

    Source When most of us think of changes that we could make to our home, the first things that come to mind are the really big projects. Things, like putting in an extension or converting a space into a more useable room, are the obvious choices for interior design alterations but they’re also incredibly time-consuming, difficult, and expensive. The truth is that there are plenty of things that you can do in your home that are a whole lot less intensive but that make just as much of a difference overall. With that in mind, here are some small things that will make a big difference in your home.  …

    Who Said Home Decor Had To Be Impractical?

    April 3, 2019 /

    Often, decor is stylish without being altogether practical. When we’re on the hunt for an interior revamp, most of us just want pieces which look the part. After all, decor is and should be about making things look good. Hence why we reach for ornaments which serve no purpose, or art hangings which don’t do anything. In some cases, we even opt for items which should be practical but are designed in a way that means they aren’t. Many of us invest in chairs no one could sit on, for example. All in the name of decor. But, what if we were to tell you that it’s possible to get…

    Love Everything Vintage? Style Your Home Like This

    February 14, 2019 /

    Vintage interior design can be everything from a rustic farm style to a luxurious and expensive-looking villa – and it doesn’t really matter if you’ve actually spent a lot of money on it either. If you find yourself rummaging through second-hand shops on a regular basis or just look a bit too much forward to the old furniture you might inherit one day, you’ve definitely found the style of your dreams. Image link: Pexels The only problem is, of course, to find the balance between charmingly old school and a living room that looks like it belonged to one of your eccentric aunts. Vintage can, after all, become a bit…

    Time For An Interior Revamp?

    February 9, 2019 /

    The problem with a lot of homes today is that they all look the same! This is because retail shops tend to stock identical products from the same suppliers. Does your home look like your friend’s house? Or a family member’s house? If so, it is time for an interior revamp! Your home is the perfect representation of who you are as a person. It is filled with furniture, accessories, patterns, and textures that you have chosen. There is no better way to express your personality and let your creative flair shine than through your choice of interiors. And that’s why it is imperative that you opt for designer interiors…

    Read Between The Lines To Find Out Why Your Reading Room Decor Isn’t Working For You

    February 1, 2019 /

    The majority of us now spend our days working office jobs and staring at computer screens. It should come as no surprise, then, that we look for screen-free alternatives once we get home of an evening. Many households are now finding that their televisions remain off for days on end as they seek better ways to spend their free time. Some of us are even repurposing areas in our houses to meet that need. Many people, for example, now dedicate their garages and basements to yoga. And, as we’re going to be considering here, some people are even turning their home offices over to mini libraries. In many ways, reading…

1 Last Shot by @nikkicastleromance is the 4th book 1 Last Shot by @nikkicastleromance is the 4th book in the Fight Game series πŸ₯Š and I finally got to read it and of course, loved it! 

This one focuses on Kane and Isabella who were both briefly introduced in book 3. Kane is a new fighter at the gym who is quiet, keeps to himself, and very intense πŸ₯Š. Isabella is new to Philly and starting a new chapter after an injury ended her professional ballet career 🩰. 

Kane is quiet and grumpy with a dark past and Isabella is sunshine, goodness, and new to living on her own and taking care of herself. The two are total opposites, but end up being neighbors and becoming friends and more. Kane wants to help Isabella navigate life on her own and feels protective of her. Isabella wants to help Kane open up more and smile and laugh πŸ₯ΉπŸ’•. 

I loved this book so much πŸ’œ. Kane and Isabella were so perfect together and I loved how even though they were opposites they were just what the other needed. It was so beautiful to watch Kane learn to trust Isabella and let someone be there for him when he’s never known that in his life πŸ’œ. 

Read this if you want a spicy, opposites attract, grumpy sunshine, sports romance! πŸ“š My full review is on the blog ✨

Things We Left Behind is the third and final book Things We Left Behind is the third and final book in the Knockemout series by @scorelucy πŸ“š. I’ve been so excited about this one because it is about Lucian and Sloane and if you’ve read the first two books you know that the two hate each other but no one really knows why. 

The novel opens with the funeral of Sloane’s father who was beloved by everyone including Lucian. It’s also learned that Sloane’s parents think of Lucian as a son so what happened to these two that were once the best of friends as teens to make them β€œenemies” for 20 years? πŸ’”

The thing that happened in the past is something that neither of them has been willing to talk about or get past and as much as they supposedly hate each other they also can’t stay away from each other when they share mutual best friends and as much as they both hate to admit it, they truly still care about each other. πŸ’•

An ongoing threat that has been present in the books since the beginning is still looming large in this book and when Sloane appears to be in the crosshairs now, it makes her and Lucian really come to terms with what they mean to each other and their past.🩷

I loved this book so much and am obsessed with Lucian and Sloane 😍πŸ”₯πŸ₯΅! I absolutely love this whole series but there is something so special about Lucian and Sloane and their shared history. I’m so sad this series is over but the epilogue helped soften the blow a little. 🩷

Read this book if you like spicy small town romances with the friends to enemies to lovers and second chance romance tropes. My full review is on the blog ✨
