Instamoments #8 | The Vignette
Instagram is such a great expression for personal style. It also forces me to move things around a little and try new things out a little more than before. This is actually a good thing because it freshens things up in the house as I use it as my little playground for styling. I also find myself buying a lot more flowers these days with Instagram in mind.
7 Vignettes Instagram Challenge
7 Vignettes Day 3: Holiday
In July last year I interviewed Jen Bishop for 5 Decorating Questions and since then I’ve been “meaning” to jump on board with the 7 Vignettes Challenge. This week I did it – finally!
Instamoments #6
Happy Friday everyone! You know that feeling when you’ve had so much on your plate and then it comes to a close and you can finally relax and take it all in? That’s me today, or rather this afternoon.
Instagram Talk | Hilde Mork
Instagram really is such an inspiring place to be at the moment. On an artistic level it’s an everyday training tool for capturing and understanding what makes a great photo and for some, it encourages us to practice the art of styling. Some of these IG feeds I’m talking about just take you into this dreamy world; each and every image, ever so slightly touching on the life of the photographer. Hilde Mork has one of those feeds. She has such an eye for capturing beauty, along with an impeccable hand at styling and imagination. With her beautiful Norwegian home as the backdrop, Hilde’s followers sure are in for a visual treat.
Insta Moments #4
The last day of March and time for another little Instagram round up for the last couple of months. Here is a little selection from my feed of late:
Earlier last month I popped into The Vitrine to check out a new addition to their warehouse, another space next door dedicated entirely to restored furniture. Like always, everything in there is swoon worthy and certainly a must to check out. I have to say that if I were renovating a house, I’d beg and plead them for that green door that’s not for sale!
Insta Moments #3
A couple of months have gone past in Instagram land since sharing some of my Insta Moments.
Christmas in Auckland this year was overcast and rainy, but that didn’t stop us having fun. My son’s favourite part of Christmas minus the presents is popping the crackers. In the last hours I realised that I forgot to get some. Shock! I drove around everywhere on Christmas Eve to no avail and in a state of panic managed to find literally the very last pack in Countdown that was sitting in a trolley to be returned to the shelf. Phew! I love this picture that my husband took of me as the cracker popped, I tell you there was a lot of relief in that laugh…
Insta Moments #2
Hi friends, it’s been ages since I last did an Instagram round up for you, so here’s a little snippet from my feed.
Back at the end of September, Guillaume and I went to the Moët Ice Impérial launch. We were swept off to a secret location to experience the new summer drink. We arrived at the most jaw dropping ocean cliff top “weekender” in Mahurangi, North of Auckland. Oh how the other half, or should I say 1% live…. the views… I’m still swooning!
Insta Moments #1
I hope that you all had a great weekend? The weather is really starting to warm up for us here, so more time outside on our sunny back deck.
Here’s a little roundup of some of my favourite Instagram pics lately. You can follow me via @mel_chesneau or click here.
