Piglet in Bed Cafe au Lait washed percale cotton bedtime bundle, from £133
I have been sucked into the Pinterest wormhole that is cottagecore bedrooms. These Piglet in Bed cotton bedsheets are a beautiful mocha colour that would pair so well with one of its new gingham wool blankets for those “never leave the bed” Sunday mornings. pigletinbed.com

Omega x Swatch Mission to Pluto Bioceramic MoonSwatch, £218

Omega x Swatch Mission to Pluto Bioceramic MoonSwatch, £218
I wore Swatch watches exclusively in my teens, from plastic brights in the late ’80s to silver models with fried eggs in lieu of numerals in the ’90s. The recent MoonSwatch collaboration with Omega has reignited my interest – as well as the rest of the galaxy’s, apparently, as it has become near impossible to find. swatch.com

Dowsing & Reynolds steel large shelf, £20.99
Dowsing & Reynolds is the perfect one-stop shop for all those overlooked hardware details that can really elevate a room, from chunky dimmer switches in yummy colours to textured brass door handles.

Alighieri sterling-silver The Truth, Untold necklace, £425
Alighieri founder Rosh Mahtani says that the best way to wear her jewellery is to layer it, mixing metals, shapes and lengths. And if Mahtani says so, then I oblige. I already have three of her necklaces and would love to add this silver number to the collection. alighieri.com

Sorry I Gave Birth I Disappeared But Now I’m Back by Andi Galdi Vinko, £40

Sorry I Gave Birth I Disappeared But Now I’m Back by Andi Galdi Vinko, £40
I should take Galdi Vinko’s new photobook to every meet-up with friends I haven’t seen since my daughter was born 21 months ago, and simply whip it on the table instead of a bumbling answer to the inevitable “Where have you been?” The title alone sums up everything raw and honest about the experience of motherhood. trolleybooks.com

Dress with Backpack artwork by Klas Ernflo, £2,100

Dress with Backpack artwork by Klas Ernflo, £2,100
I am a huge fan of this Swedish artist and his surreal graphic dreamscapes. His world is inhabited by bulbous hieroglyphic forms in sumptuous colour palettes, which he translates into furniture, canvases and ceramics. Owning one of his large-scale ink works on cardboard would make me very, very happy. klasherbert.com

Case Furniture teak Tanso bench, £705

Case Furniture teak Tanso bench, £705
Although the heatwave continuously threatened to fry my garden to a crisp, I spent the summer finally creating the perennial border of my dreams, and all I’m now missing is a bench to sit on and admire the fruits of my labour. I love the school-bench Japandi vibe of this simple design by David Irwin for Case Furniture. conranshop.co.uk

Gordon & MacPhail Connoisseurs Choice from Balblair Distillery 1998, £175

Ya Habibi Market Beirut 1975 scented candle, $65

Ya Habibi Market Beirut 1975 scented candle, $65
Ya Habibi Market was set up by a community of creatives from the MENA region, and all the items it produces are super-covetable. The Beirut 1975 candle, with its scent of charred chestnuts, sea salt and tobacco, is the whiff of nostalgia for my ’90s teenagerhood that I need. Plus, all proceeds go to Beit El Baraka, a charity supporting the Lebanese population through the ongoing crisis. yahabibimarket.com
