My Favourite/Dream Bathrooms Trends!

Hey beaut's!

I think the bathroom is one room in my home that I wish I had multiples of because I have so many bathroom interior ideas, and when you only have the one bathroom it's hard to choose from all the trends that I love! We recently had our bathroom re-done in our home and I love it, I think my favourite looks and trends for UK bathrooms is quite minimal, clean looking and basic, so that's what we went for in ours, I love white and grey tones with hints of green from plants however, I thought I'd share a few other trends/ideas that I have if money and space was no object. 

Free Standing Bath - I mean how beautiful are free standing baths, it's actually on my interior bucket list to one day be the proud owner of a free standing tub! I just think they look so luxurious and timeless with their roll top, gorgeous shape and most have the stunning Victorian looking feet, their just so aesthetically pleasing and whacking in a bath bomb in one of those is my idea of heaven. 

Overhead Shower - Although we updated our shower when we had our bathroom done to a more modern looking one, the goal is to one day have a trendy looking overhead shower,  I'm actually sooo jealous of people who have one. I'm talking a large square one which is  actually installed and running from the ceiling, not only do they look flipping amazing but I can you just image how amazing having a shower with one would be. 

Statement Tiles - Yes I'm that girl that loves a marble tile or two, I adore grey and white together so marble tiles are my idea of heaven as they look amazing on the floor as well as on the walls however...Something a little bit different for me is a delicate pink tile, if I had another bathroom I'd go for delicate pink herringbone tiles with gold hardware and maybe add touches of navy!

As Many Plants As Possible - A huge bathroom trend is to add plenty of greenery with plants whether they're real or fake and I'm totally living for it! I have a few plants in my bathroom as their perfect for adding a bit of character but they also easily fill a gap on a shelf or in a corner, I particularly like plants in the bathroom that either hang from a corner on the ceiling or trailing plants. Good plants to for - for a bathroom are Ivy, Aloe Vero, Spider Plants and Bosten Ferns.  

Column Radiators - I'm so happy that column radiators are trendy again as I blooming well love them, I think the smaller they are the more gorgeous they look so a bathroom is the perfect place for a smaller column radiator. I also much prefer the look of those than a heated towel rail! 

Wow this post has really made me want to get decorating again (please don't tell my boyfriend he he). What bathroom trends do you love beaut's? Do you have any of these already? I'd love to know.

Make My Blinds Review + Bathroom Update!

Hey beaut's!

Me and my boyfriend have been living in our little home for nearly 9 years now and even though we decorated each room of the house when we moved in and have refreshed some of the rooms along the way since,  I feel now is definitely the time to give certain rooms of the house a bit of a re-vamp again. My interior style has changed so much since we moved in, I much prefer a more fresh, clean and minimal look now, but when we moved in I was only 21 and had no idea about interiors! 
The first room of our house that we decided to give some much needed TLC too was our bathroom, in fact we ended up having a whole new bathroom suite fitted and new tiles put up! We went for large rectangular white tiles with a slight bumpy effect and glossy finish to them and oh my god I love them so much, we painted the walls grey too which looks so much nicer than the garish bright blue we had!
Another major thing that has completely changed up our bathroom is a new set of blinds, I no this might sound strange because it's only a blind but our bathroom window is massive so it really makes an impact and it really has finished the bathroom off perfectly! We decided to use Make My Blinds and opted for one of their wooden blinds, Make My Blinds is the perfect place to go if your looking for new blinds because their all made to measure, all you have to do is simply measure up your window and type in the measurements when making your purchase and the blind gets delivered to your door in the correct size, it's so quick and easy, theres even handy video tutorials on the website to help you measure up correctly and 'how to' videos to help you install the blind correctly  - so everything is taken care of! The blind we opted for was the Editions Driftwood White - Wooden Blind, it has a faux grain effect running through each slat which works perfectly against the pale, white colour of the wooden blinds, and the quality is amazing too and perfect for the bathroom because it's waterproof and wipe clean. We will definitely use Make My Blinds again because of the sheer simplicity the whole experience is, we've had nightmares with blinds in the past because the fit and the size of our window, but as you can see from the picture the length and width of the blind we got is PERFECT!

I absolutely LOVE the look of my bathroom now and the blind is just so modern and clean looking, I love it! There are a few finishing touches that need to be made, the new floor still needs to go down and I have a large mirror that needs to go on the wall so maybe I'll do another update when everything is completely finished!
