Is it us, or is there a hint of magic in the air? From the emergence of Etsy witches and mania for all things zodiac to reruns of Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Charmed, our sixth sense and inner trends radar is detecting a theme. And this season, it’s headlined by one of the most hotly anticipated sequels of the year: yes, we’re talking Practical Magic 2.
Social media was set alight a few weeks ago when stars Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman surprised LA audiences with ‘midnight margaritas’ at a special screening of the original movie, which came out in 1998.
With the second movie set to release in the UK on September 11, it promises to provide plenty of inspiration – not least in the realm of homewares.
Our favourite brands and interiors shops are packed with enchanting pieces for the incoming cosy season. Forget novelty junk destined for landfill, instead look for stylish and chic pieces that will bring an element of whimsy to your space.
We’re talking cosmic motifs like the sun and stars mingling with nods to the natural world – grassy textures, vegetable themes and so on.
Consider tactile fabrics like velvet and raffia in neutral and jewel tones with lifting flashes of metallic details. In other words? Grandmacore, but with a trick up her sleeve.
