[Advertisement - this is is a paid partnership with MADE.com, but as always all words and opinions are my own] One of the joys of blogging is never quite knowing what exciting projects lie around the corner, and every now and then a totally unexpected opportunity lands in my inbox. One such email arrived a few weeks ago from MADE.com, inviting me to style and co-host a midsummer supper to . . .
Top tips for Copenhagen
Someone once told me that it’s difficult not to feel at home in Copenhagen, even if you don’t speak a word of Danish. That certainly rings true, and it’s a city I’ve felt drawn to again and again, ever since my first visit through a school exchange programme at the age of 14.

I’m always a sucker for Nordic interiors, but what I love most about this scheme is the way owner Signe Toft (a lawyer who clearly has an eye for style) has seamlessly mixed Scandinavian minimalism . . .
