MY INTERIOR LIFE: HELENA DEL RIOZ

I'm so excited to have Helena from A Diary of Lovely here today sharing her Interior Life!
Helena, my sweet friend from London, has a fabulous blog with constantly fresh material, always a treat to read! I hope you enjoy learning more about her today...


My Life:
I've always loved... clothes and shoes, pretty little things, being right ;)


I wish I'd designed... the Emerson Made collection, smart and beautiful, great business.


My guilty pleasure is... chocolate, nutella all the way!


My favorite smells are... cake, fresh washed clothes, the smell after the rain


The best gifts are... the ones that will last forever
The greatest lesson in life... be true to yourself

My Inspiration:
I like to personalise things by... I agree with Mackenzie, monograms all the way even though I have never done it



The designer I admire most is...  difficult to answer really. I don't think I admire any designer in particular. Home related I admire self taught people like Bailey of Peppermint Bliss

Happiness itself is... being in peace with those around you and surrounded by love. Health. 

My Home: 
My Home is... my safe place and the one place I want and feel always comfortable.


I collect... nothing really, but I like trays, and glass jars and books, as many books as possible!


I prefer wallpaper walls because... they are fun and full of personality however I live and will most like always live surrounded by white walls and that doesn't worry me


I covet... too many things. But mainly a bigger house really, which is very difficult in London.

My 3 essential cooking ingredients are... olive oil, greek oregano and parmesan cheese


My only interiors rule is... no rules here, what goes goes, and anything can happen really.

Great new series Keely, very excited to be here today. Thanks for having me! xo
