Home Beautiful: Colour Book

Freshly arrived on the news stands is the Home Beautiful "Colour Book", which, as well as featuring my own home (in the Whimsical colour trend chapter), is jam packed full of images which have me drooling for their colour inspiration to die for...

Many thanks to editor Rosanne Peach at HB for keeping me in the loop and for doing such a beautiful job!

If you are stuck for colour in your home, this book is a must to inspire something elegant, bold, fun... or even whimsical! It starts here... go for it!

I'm drinking in every page, Love Nina x

Spotted: Shopping Sherpa in print

A darling surprise in this Sunday's Relax magazine... the home and stylings of Anna Maria Sviatko - also known as The Shopping Sherpa. Seen right here at Canberra's Got Style, the monochromed one shows us why she's soon to be featured on the ABC's Collectors program in April! Congratulations AMCS!

And, a hot tip... stay tuned for more Canberra's Got Style featured homes in the pages of Relax magazine in their effort to show real Canberra style! Nice one!

Guess who's in Cleo magazine???

Surprise... Look who's hanging out on page 180 of the latest issue (Jan 2010) of Cleo Magazine!!!

Since spotting my home featured on Made By Girl blog, Lifestyle features editor Joanna Barry has been busy putting together a page around the things I do and make! In an issue bursting with style - well it was curated by fashion designer Alice McCall - CLEO invites you to "have a perve through the window of the coolest pads from here and OS (minus the AVO)".

A big thank you to Joanna, who did a lovely job of it - and choosing some fabulous "Get the Look" items all of which I (ahem) have to get!!! (I really really want that cutlery now!!!). And my gratitude also goes to Jennifer Ramos (Made By Girl) for pointing the way! xxx

But wait, there's another fabulous reason to grab a copy... on page 32, our very own Lady Smaggle (part-time Canberra girl) shows us another fabulous fashion DIY!

And if you're visiting Canberra's Got Style for the first time, welcome! Put your feet up with a cuppa and check out the archives!
