MAKE DO WITH TREND-DEFYING STYLE

The Word is that sweet flowers in vintage bottles, 
books stacked in colour themes on rustic coffee tables, 
textiles draped on walls and rad road side finds 
give ample, trend-defying style. 
Do you think so too?
Textile Rich by Kerry Martin at Tranquil Townhouse (also the photographer and stylist) follow on Instagram @ tranquiltownhouse. Loving the draped fabric above the comfy lounge and bright mix of cushions. Be a perfectly cosy spot for good "Chatty Kathy" and afternoon tea, don't you think?

Pink themed vignette with flower in vintage bottle and books stacked on rustic coffee table by Kylie at Stylish Settings (photography and styling also by Kylie). Follow on instagram @ sylishkylie


Lavender from the garden on rustic table by Jess Flett. Such a sweet work of art!(photography and styling also by Jess). Follow on Instagram @ jessflett

One of the best road side find's EVER by Jamie Walsh (styling and photography also by Jamie). This vintage desk rides again with new castors added to a broken leg and with sanded-back bench top. LOVE this desk and its simple soulful styling! Follow on Instagram @ Eclectic Me

I do love being able to share your great reality styling snaps! 

I will be beaching it next week with my boys however I will do my best to post a "make do and style" segment should country NSW internet allow it... In the meantime, do share any #makedoandstyle moments you have on Instagram or Twitter. I do realise, that I have been rather quite on the blog front from my own personal contribution but I just wanted to concentrate on getting this segment off the ground first.
