Obsessively obsessed

One of my friends made a comment over the weekend that I tend to obsess over a lot of things. I took it as a compliment even though I don't think it was really intended as one. My latest obsession is, you could say, interior design. Not so much through the house yet but particularly my room. I think this partly due to discovering theselby.com. I love the idea of being able to peer into other peoples homes and I find with this website I'm captivated by every single photo. Not like an interior design mag we're I'll skim over pretty much everything in the shop and not even purchase the damn thing. So here are some of my favourites.


Aren't they wonderful?
























As you can see from my selection there isn't much of a recurring theme but I don't think there's anything wrong in mixing it up a little. I'll probably stick to a very minimalistic theme with bold colours like red and black but will be definitely pinching ideas from here. Stay posted and I may even let you peer into my home in the near future...

    Mmmmm delicious pics. I obsess also, about many many things, and my friends point this out alot but I think of it as one of my best qualities, might as well take it as a positive haha. Especially when it is about pretty or funny things.
