Just perfect for treating yourself, treating others and for giving your home an uplifting mini makeover with feel good sunshine tones.
From jugs and mugs to gorgeous notebooks which are perfect for home working, there’s something for everyone to fall in love with. Here’s what we’re crushing on.
Notebooks
Who doesn’t love the look and feel of a new notebook? I spend most of my days in front of a computer screen, however, I invariably write the outline of all my blog posts in a notebook. I find that I work really well this way as I can think and write really fluently. I then quickly type up my musings. It works for me and as you can imagine, I get through stacks of lined notebooks.
It’s not surprising then that I love this Cote D’Azur travel notebook and the equally vibrant geo orange notebook.

An Artist’s Guide to the French Riviera by Virginia Johnson
And finally, Travels Through The French Riviera is a beautifully quirky travel guide and more. Saturated with the limpid colors of sea and sun, the dazzling greens of verdant gardens, and the rose and ochre of sunbaked villas and joyous with paisleys and blue-striped sailor’s shirts and the riotous look of a patisserie window filled with confections, Travels Through the French Riviera is an ideal gift for any Francophile.
It’s also a uniquely useful travel guide, whether showing how to order coffee like a local, plan a beach day at Menton, or hike the Cap Ferrat peninsula or where to taste the best ice cream in Antibes – nothing beats a little daydreaming and planning ahead.
