We often think about our homes in terms of how they look, but I think we underestimate how much they affect how we feel and how easily our days run.

None of these things will remove the stress from your life, but small changes to your surroundings can take away some of the unnecessary friction.

Hope this helps

I’ve gone much deeper into this in today’s free Substack. Link in bio.

5 sophisticated pinks I’m loving

Pink has definitely been having a bit of a moment over the last year, and interestingly, colour psychology often associates it with feelings of love, comfort and nurturing which perhaps explains some of the appeal.

I tend to love the muddier, earthier shades, the ones with brown, red or grey undertones that almost behave like a warm neutral.

These are five of my favourites:

Next in the series of my favourite places to shop - Art!

Art doesn’t have to cost a fortune to make a room feel special. These are four of my favourite places to look for affordable art, from original pieces and emerging artists to vintage finds.

Save this for the next time you have a blank wall to fill, and let me know your favourite places to find art too.

There are thousands of paint colours out there, and working out what actually goes together can be half the battle, so I thought I’d share five combinations I keep coming back to.

Some are a little more unexpected than others, but I love every one.

Hopefully one gives you a starting point for your own home.

Which is your favourite?

There’s something about this time of year that makes me want to find a corner of the house, fill it with cushions and books and disappear into it…

Here are 6 gorgeous images for inspiration. ❤️

There’s something about a pantry that feels insanely comforting.

I’m not sure whether it’s biological, food means safety after all, or more nostalgic. Not that my mum’s pantry looked anything like these. Hers was more of a large cupboard filled with out of date tins!

I love that we’re honouring pantries again and making these hardworking little spaces beautiful. There’s something very special about them.

I’ve decided the key to making laundry more enjoyable is to pimp up your utility room…. including get an iron boarding in matching fabric to your cafe curtains.

Podzim je můj fav🥧🎃🍁 neřešíme kolikrát jsem řekla slovo “cute”🤗✌️#getreadywithme #grwm #autumnvibes #entertainment #helpfultips

My nephew says my hair looks like sticks
Now I see the resemblance

I've never worked out in gyms since I was 14 years old, it's enough to work only with my weight, maybe longer, I don't know.
we'll see))

Мой Телеграм-Канал в шапке профиля.

Скоро пройдет показательное для меня, важное, спортивное мероприятие - ЧЕМПИОНАТ РОССИИ по бодибилдингу и фитнесу 2026 важнее его только ЧЕМПИОНАТ МИРА IFBB.

Это вид спорта в котором нужны очень многие качества, а не только тренажеры - вопреки сложившемуся мнению.

The most painful feeling isn't losing someone. It's watching your favorite person slowly become a stranger while you're still trying to hold on.

One day, you're their favorite notification. The person they can't wait to talk to. The one who makes their ordinary days feel special.

And then, somehow, everything begins to change.

The conversations get shorter. The excitement disappears. The little things they used to notice about you suddenly don't seem important anymore.

And the worst part? You can't even explain what happened.

This heartbreaking feeling perfectly captures the emotional vulnerability that makes Zootopia (2016) so much more than an ordinary Disney animated movie.

Through the unlikely friendship between Judy Hopps, voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin, and Nick Wilde, portrayed by Jason Bateman, the film explores the complicated emotions behind trust, connection, and the fear of being hurt by someone who matters to you.

Directed by Byron Howard and Rich Moore, this Walt Disney Animation Studios masterpiece proves that even animated characters can express feelings that are painfully difficult to put into words.

And sometimes, even a deleted scene can remind us of emotions we've spent years trying to forget.

Because there's something devastating about sensing that someone's feelings are changing while yours remain exactly the same.

You start overthinking every message. Every delayed reply. Every conversation that doesn't feel quite like it used to.

You wonder whether you're imagining things or whether the person who once made you feel important is genuinely losing interest.

But perhaps the saddest part is realizing that you can't force someone to feel the same connection they once did.

Sometimes people don't leave all at once. They slowly stop showing up in the ways that used to make you feel loved.

And that kind of distance can hurt more than goodbye.

Save this emotional Zootopia moment or share it with someone who understands what it feels like to miss a person who is still part of your life.

Be kind everyone is going through something.
