I Love Flamingos

Flamingos make me happy. Their odd beaks, long necks, penchant for balancing on one spindly leg and mostly because what they eat makes them that glorious shade of pink. They also have a delightful kitsch quality that make them a uplifting addition to my home. In my last flat I adorned an entire bathroom wall with Cole & Son's flamingo wallpaper. When we moved I was very sad to leave it behind.

In my new flat my collection of mingos (as I affectionately refer to them) is growing. A faux stuffed one from Rockett St George lives in my loo.

These lights from amazon adorn my bar cart and are the height of kitsch but I LOVE them!

And this chic flamingo print is actually an old Celine advert that I cut out and framed.

I draw the line at wearing anything with a flamingo print but would be quite partial to any of the following things for my home.
