In love with the look of this hotel... it has 57 rooms and suites located on the quiet rue Jean Goujon, in the heart of Paris.
Yesterday, after wrapping a TV shoot in the Junction, I luckily came across Mjölk – a store I've been keen to see since it opened. I arrived just as it closed for the day but the manager Lauren was kind enough to let me sneak in and take a quick look around and snag a great bag by Naoto Fuksawa.
With a laser precision curation style, Mjölk carries lovely furniture and craft products from Scandinavia and Japan. In their own words, owners, John Baker & Julie Daoust talk about their vision for the store:
"We specialize in Scandinavia because the north enthralls us. Soft, quiet snowy forests and streets in the winter. Glittery, blinding sunlight on colourful buildings during the summer. Fika (coffee break) at the Konditori, with a kaffe and Napoleon pastry in hand. Trolling the Helsinki open-air markets for treasures. Aalto building tours. S.O.S. (Smör Ost och Sill = butter, cheese and herring). Swedish style. Grass roofs. Hot dog streetside snacks. And of course, the Arctic. These are a few of our favourite things."

Some of my favourite pieces at home are from Commute and so I must confess that I'm a little sad that they've moved away from my hood in Queen West – they are now at a bigger space at Bathurst & Dupont. They've also updated their website to showcase some really beautiful custom installation work – have a look.

The secret bookshelf and the swivel bookcase wall are amazing aren't they? I'm addicted to Bookshelf Porn. Another great find via SM.
As though someone put all your teddy bears in a blender and then baked them in to a loaf! Found here.
Some girls only want diamonds for Christmas, I, on the other hand, would be equally as happy if I received a beautiful chair! I am obsessed with colourful chairs – (like many things I obsess over on this site) and these designed by Giles Nouailhac from Paris are no exception. The shapes and fabric combinations are edible.
