On a more serious note, I’m thrilled to be chosen as an ambassador for interiors emporium Amara Living to help showcase one of their new collections this Autumn.
Welcome to the Midnight Garden Collection from A by Amara for AW18.
I’m going to kick off by giving you a 3D tour of how it looks in my living room. I would love to know what you think of the colour palette in particular.
As you can see, Midnight Garden is a collection of home interiors offering rich, deep hues and luxurious finishes.Ā
I like to style in a fairly uncluttered form, adding symmetry and balance to the displays.
I’ve veered away from styling in 3’s or 5’s this time, which is often the done thing, and gone more for mixing textures and heights, adding more impact and allowing the pieces to make their mark.
I think I had my fill.
But now it’s back with a vengeance. Pantone has named Ultra Violet as the Colour of the Year and it seems that the announcement is filtering through to our home interiors.
I can certainly see its appeal in this collection. Married with the bold designs, the variety of texture and the injection of metallic finishes, the purple sits easily with my dark decor and complements my love of yellow beautifully.Ā
I am completely blown away by it.
The Agate table is a definite crowd-pleaser. It’s solid and heavy, yet neat enough to sit inconspicuously at the end of the sofa and large enough to hold a small display, some flowers and your coffee cup.
I chose a myriad of vases for my photo shoot and fell in love with them all (I’m a big vase hoarder). The gold drip vases (below) really did catch my eye though, as did the smaller round ripple vase styled on the mantle.Ā
To me, it’s this factor that gives a new collection its appeal. After all, very few of us will go and purchase multiple items from a new range but instead, want to update our homes with the latest trends little by little.
The Midnight Garden collection from A by Amara allows the home lover to do exactly that.Ā
You can see all of these products and more of the collection on the website HERE.Ā

This collection looks so great in your home Jen. I love the metallics against your dark walls. It looks so glamorous. I would never have chosen purple but works so well. Lovely video too.
Ahh so luxurious! Perfect for autumn winter too! I need some of those vases!
This collection works perfectly in your home – a great contrast against the dark walls. I wasn’t keen on the pantone choice this year of ultra violet – but I can see purple mixed with metallics creates quite q glamorous combination.
