I've had a really busy this week and next week looks set to be another mad one too! I've been working on some amazing properties developing their interiors and I've also designed the interiors for a private jet!

I managed to squeeze in a little bit of 'me time' this week and went to see one of the UK's leading skin guru's called Lee Garrett on Harley Street.

He's great and gave me a skinpeel from the renowed SkinMed so my skin is glowing! My tip for mums is to always make sure you put a bit of time aside whether it's watching TV, seeing friends or having a facial it's really important!

Next week is half term so I will be taking the kids away and can't wait! I will be writing my column from holiday so make sure you send me in your questions! Love Celia

- My daughter wants her room to look stylish, but fun and trendy. She loves purple and pink and is 13. Can you suggest any ideas that don’t entail fairytale pinks and are a little more 'with it'?

Yes there are some fabulous purples out there. Keep it more grown up by using the purple on a large wall as a dominant colour. Another fabulous way to make a trendy teenagers bedroom is the use of lanterns.

You can pick these up really cheaply and can hang lots of different shapes, colours and sizes from your ceiling to create a fun look.

If there is room, its nice to incorporate some pouffes or bean bags in different colours for a 'grown up' area to chill out with friends.

- 'I know we are still in winter and coming into spring but I am going on holiday for easter. Can you suggest some great items I can pack for a beach holiday as I want to get the WOW factor but on a budget!'

Always invest in a few maxi dresses and lots of flip flops! There are so many glam ones on the market now with loads of design options to suit or dress up any outfit.

These can double up for a glam beach look to a relaxed evening look and are very sexy and easy to wear with a mini or maxi dress alike.

I always swear by accessorize where you can get almost every design on the market and treat yourself to their jeweled encrusted clutches too, they are easy to pack and look a million dollars!

- 'Celia how do you think It would look by using bright wall paper on one wall in my living room, and how can I make it look right and not old fashioned?

Its ok to do this but be careful and make sure that you use accessories to work in with the accent colour.

I suggest looking for cushions, throws and books that match to create a more designer, sophisticated look.

Don’t spend a fortune though, you may grow tired of your strong colour and want a change in a year or so.
