Sunny life with Sunday Collector's Briar Stanley

Portrait by Gui Jorge.

Briar Stanley is a props buyer (working with Baz Luhrmann, no less), stylist and decorator with a beautiful blog - Sunday Collector - which covers interiors, food, DIY projects and her extremely photogenic daughter Sunday. Her style is fresh & accessible (if you love it, get in touch with her to discuss an interior design project) and makes for our first Spring week in pictures.



I've always got my camera or phone on me ready to take a photo, and one of my favourite things about my sister's house are the original P&O art deco windows.



My husband is the cook in the family...but I served up 'make your own' ice cream for visitors last weekend. My answer to the hassle-free dessert.



A good mail day! New shoes arrived in the mail from Seed Heritage. I've also got them in leopard print. So comfy, and great for being on-the-go with work.



I love where I live. Manly Beach has been dazzling us with its blue skies. It's such a cliché photo, but I just can't get enough of looking out at the water.



My baby girl Sunday is fast becoming a water baby (just like her mum). We spent Fathers Day at the beach, and this girl has no fear of the cold water.



I love to potter in Sunday's room. I have everything organised so it's actually really easy to keep neat and tidy. Attractive toy storage is the secret. She's getting to an age where she really loves to spend time in there too, so I'm happy I really put some effort in to decorating.



I met a client for a brief at a new favourite - The Boathouse in Balmoral. The colours in the fruit/veg and flower offerings are always stunning. I want to get back there soon to try the Beef Wagyu Burger, it looks delicious!



I often share recipes on my blog, and this is a shot from a recent post... Donna Hay's yummy caramel cookies. It's a really simple recipe, a great one for kids.



I've got a little project on the go that involves mini cactus on mass. My local Bunnings happens to have an impressive range. I can spend hours getting lost in that place.



I'm more than excited to be living less than 50 metres away from the new Miss Chu's in Manly - we opted for take away over the weekend. I can see this easily becoming a regular thing...I blogged about the super cute fit-out on Monday.
