Real Living is one of my favourite Aussie home and lifestyle magazines. There’s simple ideas and beautiful houses and masses of delicious inspiration!

I subscribed the first issue and it’s been exciting to see Real Living make its way around the international blogging world these past weeks.

Real Living inspires me in so many ways, but for today’s purpose, they inspire me for weddings! I wrote about the fabulous location they found for a vintage and cherry lip inspired fashion shoot in November and this months issue with it’s bold red, blue and yellow cover has left me loving the home of jewellery designer Melanie Katsalidis with so many individual touches and things (like a vintage quilt) that say who she is, and really- that’s what homes should be. It’s also what weddings should be!

The black kitchen of Craig Miller-Randle is rather intriguing too! Unexpected colours in unexpected places are something a little special!

Here are a few of my favourite things from the latest issue (why yes I would love that window other my bedroom and that telephone too please!) Buy the magazine for me (or if you’re internationally based, beg and plead and Aussie to send it to you!)
