The ‘REAL’ Mrs T’s Corner

A while back ago I wrote an entry about how I came about naming my blog (click here to read that entry). Today, I would like to reveal… the real-life Mrs T’s corner! Exciting stuff : ) It took me a while to find the cushion cover and the throw to go with this armchair. I ended up getting the cushion covers from Ebay and the throw from Primark (uber affordable and uber soft). Mr T bought me the lily plant that sits on the corner table, I heart how the pretty pink flowers match my throw.

I have also included some before and after pictures of the cushions on our sofa in the living room… I love how the minty green injects a subtle touch of colour while still keeping it neutral. Although now that it is getting a lot cooler, I feel like I need to switch the cooler neutral tones to a more richer, deeper tones… on to the next project!

Last Weekend: Oui Oui J’adore Paris

 
Mr T and I went to Paris last weekend to start off my birthday week, he also organized a beautiful hotel for us to stay at and a precious restaurant for us to dine in. Mr T sure knows how to spoil me : )

We boarded Eurostar at St Pancras International in London and then 2 hours and a bit later we arrived at Paris Gare du Nord. Paris really is beautiful, a city of love with so many breathtaking views!!
The highlight of the trip for me was lunch at La Tour D'Argent Restaurant, the prettiest little thing ever and food was ah-maa-ziiing
