Inside The Home Of…Bridal Stylist, Isabel While

Written by , Posted in Inside The Home Of...

I love having a good ol’ nose around people’s houses, don’t you? I think a home can speak wonders about a person and really shows how creative they are and can often reveal a lot about their personality! That being said, when we first met Isabel for our styled shoot in Bristol we were instantly captivated by the beauty of her home! Think shabby chic with a whole lotta pretty! We knew that we just HAD to interview Isabel about it and share the decor with you! Besides, isn’t it nice to feel like you know your suppliers more? We love the idea of the home behind the vendor!

Let the shabby chic goodness commence!
