White Black Grey Blog — Travel

Welcome to our latest "Brilliant Blogs" post. Where we write a blog post about other blogs that we think are brilliant. Meta. This month we're featuring a new kid on the blogging-block - Amy Menton.  Here at WBG Towers, we've been crushing on Amy's instagram feed for many months now. Naturally, we were delighted to hear she has started a blog and it is chock-full of the same sort of loveliness - yay!  Photographer and interior-lover Amy lives in Chicago with her husband, Stephen and cat, Olive. Her blog is sorted into three simple categories: Interiors, Travel and Lifestyle. So essentially,...

Hello and welcome to "Five Minutes With...", our latest blog feature. Each month, we'll be having a brief chat with one of our marvellous suppliers... about life, the universe, and everything.

Topics include interiors, craft, travel and social media. Her recent post "Things I've learnt about Instagram" is a must if you want to up your IG game. Her cosy home includes a healthy dose of monochrome too, which of course makes our eyes happy!   Jo writes with an accessible, amiable tone, pairing beautiful photography with  refreshing honesty. Do check it out if interiors are your thing. Oh, and don't worry, there is a...

There are a number of things about myself I am reluctant to admit. Mostly things I don't like, but feel I ought to. Top of this list is Travel, yes travel with a capital T. Photo by chuttersnap on Unsplash There are a host of reasons I don't like it... I'm a bit of a control freak; flying makes me nauseous; I'm a really fussy eater; I'm embarrassed that I don't speak any other languages; I detest packing... ...it costs a fortune; strangers make me nervous... blah blah blah.
