The end of\nsummer always brings about a desire to update my home. Maybe it\u2019s that back to\nschool feeling, or the slight change in weather but I\u2019ve been eyeing up new\naccessories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love<\/em> accessories because they add layers\nof personality, texture and interest to any room. Even rented properties with\nneutral walls and floors can be transformed with a few carefully placed art\nprints and objet. And rearranging your current collection or adding in a few new\npieces is a quick and affordable way to refresh your space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today I\u2019m\nrounding up a few accessories available at some of my favourite homeware shops.\nHere are my picks for the best late summer accessories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tall Pink Vase, \u00a395, Rockett St George<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This vase is brilliant<\/a>. It combines elegant and classic\ndesign with the colour of the moment (candy pink) and oversized scale. It\u2019s\nsomehow both trendy and timeless at the same time. It\u2019s an artisanal statement\npiece that will add instant wow-factor to any side table it sits upon. Dress it\nup with dried flowers or faux foliage for maximum impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leopard Candle Stick, \u00a322.95, Graham &\nGreen<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we move\ninto autumn, candlesticks are a must! Go for something a little bit different\nwith these leopard candlesticks<\/a> by Graham & Green. Leopard\nprint anything is ultra trendy at the moment, but I think these candlesticks\navoid the pitfalls of most trendy accessories. They\u2019re practical, well-designed\nand unique but not novelty, plus they\u2019re the perfect colour for autumn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pink and Saffron\nPendulum Wall Clock, \u00a340, Habitat<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Effortlessly stylish home accessories are what Habitat is\nall about. This\npink and yellow wall clock<\/a> is no different. It combines sleek and\nminimalist design with striking features like unexpected colour palettes and\ncurves. It\u2019s also available in brass or all-white, if you want a more sedate\noption. This clock is the perfect accessory for the home office or an\nultra-modern kitchen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matt Black Octagonal\nMirror, \u00a3149, MADE.com<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This mirror by MADE<\/a> is perfect for over the\nmantelpiece. The unique shape and matt black edging ensures it will catch the\neye, but it\u2019s not so <\/em>striking it will\ntake attention away from everything else. If you\u2019re over heavily framed\nmirrors, this is perfect for you. Also available in rose gold and brushed\nbrass. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
