'Seat of the Pants Chic'...

It was such a treat to meet textile and interior designer, Kathryn Ireland at Furnitex Decoration and Design in Melbourne last week. Described as '10 To Watch' architects and designers expected to influence 21st century style - Kathryn's work is a mix of English Manor and French Farmhouse sensibilities with a splash of bohemian vibe. More than anything, for me it was Kathryn's laid-back and relaxed approach to design that impressed me the most. What an inspiration... Check out the pics below from her website...

Hi Anna,
Yes, I think 'idol' status is the best way to describe Kathryn. What a hoot of a lady. I had the privilege of listening to her speak for an hour! Telling stories of all of her famous friends and fabulous life! How wonderful.

Hi lily-g,
what a great event - so many interesting 'insiders' there. Did you get to Anna Spiro's talk on blogging? She was full of knowledge, passion and great blogging tips. What an angel
