So according to the calendar it's officially Spring. OK in theory, but in principle venturing out with just a cardigan and blazer tells quite a different story
What to do with those inbetween days...
Dig the pastel tights out
Paint nails in favourite colour combinations
Get used to being back at work
Fresh fruit for breakfast
Build up the vinyl collection
Sort out paperback overspill
Scratch my kitsch itch!
Amongst other things

I feel very optimistic about the arrival of not just spring, but spring weather. It's grey and wet today, as well as rather cold. Like you though, an inherent urge to de-clutter has woken up inside. Neat piles of half sorted stuff are dotted around the house. Just desperate for coat free days. I've got so many cardigans to wear!
ReplyDeleteI love your table, it looks so welcoming and fun.
Pastel tights, I need some, I only have dark or patterned ones.
That's an impressive pile of books, you can tell it's been a long winter.

Oh let me help you scratch that itch Lucy, I need insane fairy lights in my life NOW! And oh those placemats are simply heavenly - I'm 10 years old again!! Take it easy out there love, don't let the bastards pull you down but it looks like minty tights with delish mary janes, multi-coloured nail polish and working on your vinyl and paperbacks are just the trick to invite spring in. Hope you're well my lovely, Desiree xo
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos!! I still don't feel as spring is coming, but it's a good excuse to wear our pastel tights and think about bright colours and things we love!
ReplyDeleteI like your working space, it's really personal and it offers us a more private sight of your everyday life!Always go for the bright side of kitch!
Lots of love xxxxx
Ooh I love those chilli pepper lights! like you Lucy I've slowly been incorporating brighter colours into my wardrobe, now if the weather would care to catch up! Love those pastel tights!

Now I've got The Cure in my head and the delectable vision of Robert Smith when he was thin and gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love your house, I want to come round for dinner and steal everything. I wish Spring would hurry up and get here, Tuesday's taste of it was wonderful but it's buggering freezing now and we've apparently got snow on the way. xxx
I know the feeling when it comes to paperback overspill! I seriously need to cull my book collection and free up some space on my overstuffed bookshelves xx

Im loving those placemats those red ones are gorgeous. I to have just dug out my blue velvet vintage jacket the past 2 days but today it rained but it was so nice to have it on again instead of my huge coat. Heres to warmer weather. dee xx
ReplyDeleteYour table setting is so funky, I love it.
ReplyDeleteOh you have lots of books, I have the same issue. My bookshelves are full of clothes... *hehehe*
Oh sweet I do love your shoes and minty green tights!!!!
ReplyDeleteYay to spring around the corner for you, we can feel autumn knocking at the door.
Love V
LOVE SPRING ,PRETTY PICS
ReplyDeleteOh yes, pastel tights are gorgeous! So are fairy lights, vintage placemats and table linen, Not the Nine O'Clock News on vinyl, paperback piles, and pretty nails!
ReplyDeleteWell, we had a little hint of Spring, but it's been murky and damp ever since... Oh well, keep up the colour and the kitsch, even if you have to carry on wearing your winter coat just a wee bit longer! xxxx
Kitsch Itch! Sooo using that phrase from now on.
ReplyDeletePastel tights are such a good idea. Looks like Spring, but no need to break my pasty legs out yet! xx
Yay love this post! Kitsch itch - love it! I scratch my kitsch itch most days...
ReplyDeleteIn between autumn here. x
The bouncing song!!! I love that record! I love your t bars, especially with pastel tights! and I need to get nail painting. Remember Spectaular Nail Polish? I think they're called Stargazer now. So many lovely things in your house. booooo to being back at work though xxxxxxx
ReplyDeleteYour home is so pretty Lucy, it just looks so warm and inviting. I love your bright colour scheme and bright nails, and envy your ability to sort out your book pile! I saw some shoes just like yours in the charity shop yesterday, with just a little heel and in my size, but they were really beaten up, so I sadly left them. I can see me going back and getting them now though. xx
ReplyDeleteI love your photos! I feel you on the overflow of paperbacks. I have not quite enough to justify buying another bookshelf, but within a few months I probably will. For now they are just in a big pile on the floor, like yours. I also love your t-bars in the first photo. Finding the right pair is difficult.
ReplyDeleteOoo, I can't wait for spring weather. Your table cloth and table mats are gorgeous (and very springy). :) Long live the kitsch itch.
ReplyDeleteYou've got me humming the Cure with your post title :)
