Home & Interiors - Muji

When I was in London the other month we popped into Muji on the King's Road for a browse. This shop is right up my street and there were so many things that I would have loved to have brought home with me (unfortunately there just wasn't enough space in my suitcase).
 
I really like the idea of this aroma diffuser. You can scent your home with essential oils and it's safe for around children and pets as there are no naked flames (I've already had an accident with one of the kittens when the singed the end of their tail on one of my many candles...oops).
 
 
I also really like Muji acrylic storage drawers. I had one of these when I was a teenager that I stored my make-up in, and it did get pretty messy and scratched so it eventually went in the bin. However I quite fancy a few of these for my home office to store stationery.
 
 
 
Keeping with the office organisation, I also love these brown card magazine files. I did have white ones from Ikea for a while, but these are more aesthetically pleasing to me. I've got three shelves above my new Made.com desk that I still need to style and I think these would be ideal for storing important paperwork.
 
 



Lastly, I love Muji travel accessories. They just seem to have this market sussed and looks like they have everything and anything you could want for travel organisation. I have a hanging toiletries bag which is super handy (think mine is from Superdrug perhaps or maybe Sainsburys), but this box one at Muji looks even more ideal as it has more storage for dinky skincare bottles.

 
Do you own any items from Muji?
What else would you recommend I check out?

Home & Interiors - Room Tour

I've filmed a wee vlog of my home office space... if you haven't seen it yet over on YouTube, then here it is...


It's one of my favourite spaces in the new house. I really enjoying working at my desk blogging and editing videos.

The only thing I'd like to change is the blue carpet!

{A New Capsule Wardrobe for Work}

One of the rewards for reaching my mid-point target weight of 11 stone 7 lbs is going to be a few pieces of clothing for work.

A few years back I lived in two piece trouser suits at work teamed with a cotton shirt, but more recently I've been sticking with dresses and skirts. I'm fancying a bit of a change, so my thoughts are that I'll purchase a pair of culottes, like these ones:


I'm also needing a few new shirts or tops that can be mixed and matched with either trousers or a skirt.

I'm a big fan of sequins, and do wear plenty of them at work... I'd love this blouse but it's so expensive, and perhaps a bit too OTT for the office!


I also love this grey link shirt from Reiss

I also would like a new dress to replace my worn out ones, here's what I've come up with so far:

Column Bodycon Dress from M&S Limited Edition

Baukjen Daria Dress in French Navy - I love Baukjen and have a number of their pieces. They've always washed well and kept their shape. Their website is always one of my go-to places when online shopping for clothes. This dress looks really versatile. I could wear it with heels to work but equally dress it down for weekends with the family.



You can tell from my choices that I still have issues with my upper arms!! I know it's probably all in my head, but I just can't help it.

Anyway, have you spotted any decent work-wear of late in the shops that's worthwhile me investigating?
