It’s 4:59, the clock hands are slowly ticking away the moments of time until you can escape your 9 to 5 routine and slip into something more comfortable.
Cut to 5:25…
You are at home on your plush down sofa, cocktail in hand, listening to your best friend dish about the latest celebrity gossip as you both nosh on homemade crab cakes & crudite.

Here are some fabulous pieces to inspire your new environment.
All you need are the cocktails, shaken, not stirred!
