<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="color: #666666;">Listen up you lot! I'm letting you in on one of the key trends for Spring/Summer 2013. If you want to be ahead of the game this Spring, make sure you pay homage to Flora and Forna in your decorating. Use the images above as your inspiration! I love the cream/grey/green tones which feature heavily in this style, and anything striped or with a leafy motif looks ace alongside them. Check out these two wallpapers, both from </span><a href="http://www.ralphlauren.co.uk/category/index.jsp?categoryId=3979821&ab=global_homeaccent"><span style="color: #999999;">Ralph Lauren Home</span></a><span style="color: #666666;">.

I love leather boots, suede boots, knee high boots, ankle boots, motorcycle boots, riding boots, wellington boots and more. Basically I love the lot! I would equally love a proper mudroom in which to keep all my pairs, instead of cramming them all into my average sized wardrobe! </span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">A mudroom should be a place to hang coats, bags, hats and scarfs and most importantly a place to take off well worn boots before heading inside to warm up. </span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If unlike me you are lucky enough to live in a big country house then feast your eyes on these beauts. (</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Believe me as the </span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">temperature</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> drops further you will really </span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">appreciate</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> a room where the dirt and grime brought in from the outside world is welcome.)</span><br />

Its safe to say that 2012 was the year of all things British. Why not continue to celebrate by getting stuck in to National Baking Week. Bake with your kids, bake with your friends, bake with whoever. Just have some fun! (and you could always raise money for </span><a href="http://www.nationalbakingweek.co.uk/charity"><span style="color: #999999;">Great Ormond Street Hospital</span></a><span style="color: #666666;"> in the process!)</span></span><br />
