Secret Messages Interiors has a huge new showroom to display its retro, quirky, stylish goodies and it's *very* addictive.

Oh hello, can I speak to the most stylish interiors store in North Buckinghamshire please? Come on Secret Messages Interiors, pick up that mustard retro phone you clearly nicked from my mum’s house in the Eighties and chat to your favourite superblogger on that to-die-for sofa (can’t pretend we were cool enough to have one of those though).

I cannot lie, I have a soft spot for the boys at SMI. They started from scratch only two years ago and by sheer will, charm and oodles of good taste, they’ve grown their business massively from a single shop in Buckingham to an online powerhouse and now – tada! – a massive showroom just on the outskirts of Buckingham town to showcase bigger pieces of furniture and the scale of the stock at their disposal.

I think we can just let the pictures do the talking on this one!

 
The showroom is a whopper two floor job so give yourself plenty of time for a mooch. As in the Bridge St shop, the showroom is all about a mix of retro, stylish and slick, but what you’ll like most about this place are the prices – there are gorgeous metal planters that look £600 but cost a tenth of that – check these out!

… plus there are sofas for under £400, industrial stools for £165, and everything in between.

If you’re planning to visit the showroom, beware that it’s not in the centre of town, you’ll want to drive there in your car, and you might want to do it tout suite – there’s also a sale on at the mo!
