blossom beauty


















When I first saw these images by the Cherry Blossom Girl, shot amongst beautiful summer blooms in Normandy gardens, I was utterly captivated. It was the middle of winter here, in July, and such carefree, romantic photos filled me with hope for warmer days ahead. I'm sure that those of you who are in the Northern Hemisphere are feeling that warm hope. I still get a little mixed up with the seasons, actually, and I've been finding myself in a spring-like mood lately. I hope that these lovely images will make you smile today--wherever you are.

Fab Frock Friday: Valentino FW 2014 RTW






















Valentino's FW 2014 ready-to-wear collection was full of the most ethereal, otherworldly dresses, embellished with exquisite embroidery, pretty prints, and shimmery beadwork. Beautifully detailed birds and butterflies bedeck a few of the dresses, while animals and dark florals played across other frocks. Capes suitable for a fairytale lass topped some of the looks, adding a cozy element. My favourite was a pale grey sheer gown, with frosty-looking leaves, perfect for a winter goddess. As I sit here, donning a sweater for the first time this autumn, I'm happily slipping into a cool mood, while gazing upon this beautiful collection.
