The spring issue of British based e-mag Heart Home was released yesterday and it is pushing all the right buttons I have to say. Always yummy, and an extra treat in this issue – the home of one of my favourite bloggers, Nina Holst of Stylizimo. Here’s a peek of Nina’s home and more…

I am in desperate need of some cheering up so I thought some awesome photography by Toronto photographer Derek Shapton would do the trick.

Please, pretty please design gods can I have one of everything from the portfolio of photographer/stylist Carina Olander. A Swedish weaver of vignettes and dreams she has me craving everything she styles, everything she captures through her lens. Pretty, pretty please, I need these pretties, please.

Enjoy some fantastic Scandinavian inspired spaces by Swedish set and prop stylist Joanna Lavén.
