Conviction









I really love it when people decide, 'you know what, that's my thing', and just go for it. Case in point, this house. I mean, I love a bit of lilac and lavender (particularly when mixed with a solid dose of grey, black and white) but I couldn't do this extent of it. Regardless of that though, I love this place.

Its the courage of the conviction that wins me over. I think its the same in fashion, work and dating - if you have the confidence to pull it off, you can! Its quite infectious really.

And perhaps not giving a toss what anyone else thinks! I quite like that :) I'm very taken with those violet dining chairs.

I know what you mean and I agree with Kerry - you have to not worry about what others think! Unfortunately, I do find this hard to overcome myself.
Love the kitchen - the window treatments make the space look really expensive and elegant. Michelle

You're so right - it's not for me, but it's conviction thought through and carefully applied. And I've been meaning to tell you I love your post titles; always intriguing little snippets that make me click to see what you have to say.

Oh, me too. I so admire people who do this because I'm so the opposite - always changing my mind. I think life must be so much easier that way!

I agree, so many people are so obsessed with doing what is considered fashionable - I say do what you love!
