Australian stylist Shannon Fricke's new book, 'Sense of Style Colour & Space' is gorgeous. I have photographed some of my favourite pages above. Some of the topics Shannon talks about in the book which I really enjoyed reading are style evolving over time, how to personalise the spaces we inhabit and the use of colour in our homes. Shannon says "My interpretation of a sense of style is that it's simply a confidence; the casual ability to bring what seem to be disparate objects together in a room and make them look cohesive, as if they are just made to be united." The beautiful photographs are by photographer Prue Ruscoe. This book, in my opinion is a definite for your design book library!

My Amazon Wish List just keeps growing and growing. But this book looks too good not to add to it! Love the pictures:)

Hi Anna,
Thanks so much for mentioning my book on your beautiful blog and to everyone out there who left a comment. Sometimes, when I'm writing away at home I wonder who's out there seeing my books and more importantly, reading them. It's very inspiring for me to hear such lovely encouragement.
Thanks again.
Warm wishes
Shannon Fricke
