Aquarius season (January 20 – February 18) invites originality, clarity, and a fresh kind of freedom.
Represented by the water-bearer, Aquarians are guided by intellect, independence, and a quietly rebellious streak. They’re drawn to ideas and objects that feel thoughtful, future-facing, and slightly unexpected - things with a point of view. Aquarius thrives in spaces that feel light and intelligently composed: clean lines, curious colour, sculptural details, and pieces that spark conversation. Not overly sentimental, but deeply intentional, they have a talent for making a home feel like a lived-in gallery - calm, clever, and distinctly their own. With wit, warmth, and a refusal to do “the obvious,” Aquarius bring a sense of possibility to everything they touch.

Granny Core is having a moment - and it ties directly into Pinterest’s 2026 trend, Laced Up. A softer, sweeter, slightly nostalgic turn to interiors. Think ruffled lampshades, scalloped edges, embroidery, floral wallpaper and patchwork blankets that look like they’ve been collected over time.
Pinterest is calling it: comfort is cool again, and the look is all about layering - pattern on pattern, texture on texture. It’s cosy, and quietly confident.

The 15-Minute Bedroom Reset (That Actually Works)

January arrives with a sense of pressure. Reset routines. Restore balance. Do better. Yet in the coldest, quietest month of the year, the idea of stripping life back to discipline alone feels at odds with the season itself. There’s comfort in slower mornings, earlier nights and spaces that support everyday rituals without excess. Wellbeing doesn’t need to be performative to be effective. Sometimes it’s found in sitting well, resting properly and creating a home that makes balance feel natural, not forced.

Health, comfort or both?

From soft lighting and winter scent rituals to quick clutter containment and bedroom comfort upgrades, these small shifts bring instant atmosphere and reduce daily friction. Includes quick picks, room-by-room starting points and an easy maintenance rhythm that actually sticks through the month.

The January Home Reset: 30 Tiny Tweaks for a Gentler Month

There’s something about the start of a new year that makes everything feel possible - a blank page and a gentle reset. I’m not one for dramatic reinvention, but I am big on getting organised early, so the year doesn’t run away with me. Every January, I print out my weekly planning sheets, map out the months ahead, and pin up my A0 calendar so that 2026 feels visible, and therefore manageable. This year, I’m adding a misogi into my planning to get the most out of my year - one big, slightly daunting goal that sits outside the day-to-day and makes the year feel directional. I’m also pencilling in mini breaks early, so there’s rest built in before everything fills up. Here’s what I’m using to plan 2026!

How To Plan Your 2026

Glassware is the base layer, the fun starts with the add-ons. Think glass skirts, cocktail sticks, covers and beads: tiny details that instantly make a drink feel styled. A skirt gives the glass a softer silhouette, beads add a flash of colour (and help everyone keep track of theirs), and a cover adds a little theatre while keeping things cool and crisp. Easy, elevated hosting, without overthinking it.

A hosting edit all about bringing people together. Food made to share, drinks poured, fun and games.

IKEA pieces are inherently playful and designed with moments of fun and togetherness in mind, creating a natural synergy with the shoot and its hosting-led set-ups. Less about rules or perfect hosting, more about sharing, celebrating and seeing the year out properly!

Tucked into a top-secret mountain setting, Kendall Jenner’s home signals a confident turn toward comfort, colour, and character. Designed with Heidi Caillier, the space embraces florals, graphic pattern, and a slightly off-beat charm that feels collected, not curated.
Here’s how we’d recreate the look: start with a hero upholstery - the bolder the floral, the better - and let it lead the room. Layer in stripes and small-scale prints without worrying too much about matching. Choose generous, sink-in seating, then soften it with skirted edges, warm woods, and gentle colour. The goal isn’t restraint, but a lived-in ease that feels personal and playful.

Rich, dark and deeply comforting, this torte is what happens when olive oil cake grows up. Created by Posie Hall using Ovette Extra Virgin Olive Oil, it’s all about balance: bittersweet chocolate, fragrant citrus and that unmistakable silkiness olive oil brings to the crumb. With clementines in season, their zest adds brightness and lift, cutting through the depth of the chocolate without overpowering it. It’s elegant but unfussy, perfect slightly warm with a spoonful of crème fraîche - or sliced the next day, when it somehow tastes even better.

A Japan guide, curated by DREAMSAKE - a Daiginjo sake that embodies Japan’s devotion to craft, balance, and quiet pleasure. Produced in Hyōgo, the birthplace of premium sake, DREAMSAKE is made using finely polished Yamada Nishiki rice and Miyamizu water from Mount Rokko. Clean, all-natural and free from sulfites or preservatives, it’s exceptionally smooth, umami-forward, and lifted with notes of honeydew melon.
Here, we explore Japan in four words - Izakaya, Ryokan, Onsen, Sake - each one a portal into the country’s rhythms and rituals. From smoky back-street bars and immersive inn stays to mineral-rich hot springs and perfect pours, this is a considered journey through places shaped by care, atmosphere, and intention. Like DREAMSAKE itself, everything in this guide is about balance: refined but relaxed, rooted in tradition yet made for modern wandering.
