Fashion Week has
hit our capital and it is great to see London alive with creativity and
beautiful things for AW12. I know, I know, you’ll be happy to see the back
of this Winter and focus on some al fresco, sun drenched dining…but surely it’s
great to have a sneak peak in to the trends for next Winter! This morning Mulberry took centre stage with a
spectacular show, with amazing winter-tastic clothing, and I wouldn’t say no to
the new ‘Del Rey’ bag either, any colour, I don’t mind! The collection was really
textural with hand knits and different types of fur, but unfortunately we’ll
have to wait until July to get our hands on the collection, so why not infuse
this in to your homeware now to be one step ahead of the fashion pack. Although maybe try a slightly lighter colour palette for the Spring.

With
Mulberry taking inspiration from the film ‘Where the Wild Things Are’, a forest
inhabited by ferocious wild creatures, here are my top picks of well er, not so
ferocious creatures to stylise your home with.
Animals are a big trend in homeware at the moment, and worry not this
doesn’t mean using real fur or hanging a real stag head from the wall! Here at
Butterfly Lane we are not so cruel! Simply add a cool stag print tea towel in
your kitchen, these from Thornback & Peel are particularly cool, or why not use this bull toilet
roll holder from Graham and Green, or my particular favourite is this amazing
stag hook from Parlane which has already got pride of place in my downstairs loo!
Some
of these animal inspired beauties will be available to buy at
Butterfly Lane soon, so watch this space.
