Vanity Purr — Grey Tabby in Tweed Canvas Print

Vanity Purr — Grey Tabby in Tweed Canvas PrintWe like fashion portraits best when they come with a little abrasion. A grey tabby in black tweed, pearls and a beret stares the room down and the room is better for it. It lifts a quiet wall the moment it goes up, turning a dressing area, hallway or sitting room into something with a sense of humour. Hang it at eye level above a console, dressing table or low sideboard, where the pearls and pale background do most of the work. Pair with black

Pairs well with warm timber

cream rugs and matt ceramics

the soft sky and timber tones settle into the room with a warmer

The mustard gets along easily with warm neutrals and adds gentle contrast against off-white walls
