GLAMOUR PHOTOGRAFY

. . . the first week of this new year has already been a spectacular flurry of activity, beginning with a new tiffany blue & gold-leafed daybook waiting to be filled, and on the eve of new year's day, a meeting in a hotel lobby amidst the still twinkling post-holiday fairy lights, to plot and to plan and to dream, and there is so much to tell you, including, currently, two enormously exciting projects in the works, a wedding in paris in june, and still to come, the grandest adventure of all, that may just change everything -- and so, it is wild anticipation that we begin the second week of this new year . . .

. . . quite stunning, actually, how we have arrived at december so quickly, and in such a beautiful whirl of hours and days, flying at breathtaking speeds, only to arrive at the end, the very last month of an extraordinary year, and soon there will be the making of resolutions and plans for a new year, but for now, immensely looking forward to twinkling crystal & mimosas at festive brunches, holiday soirées and elegant dinners by candle & fairy light, to sequined dresses and upswept hair, and most of all, to a little time spent with those we love . . .

happy december! wishing you days filled with the utter magic of the holiday season, roséline xo

"September: it was the most beautiful of words, he’d always felt, evoking orange-flowers, swallows, and regret."

. . . although it's monday, monday and {technically} back to work, while it is still summertime, and for a well-deserved break from the past few busy, busy weeks, skipping the office {and town} for a few hours today, and by the time you read this, will already be on the second cup of coffee at the café, and well on our way to the beach, the windows down and all summer breezes . . .

à bientôt / see you soon . . . happy monday {& august!} and hope your week is off to a perfect start, roséline xo

"The world's favorite season is the spring.
All things seem possible in May."

. . . wind-tousled hair and sun-drenched cafés, long pleated skirts and daffodils, coral lip gloss and brighter skies, and most of all, that irresistible, unmistakable, all-encompassing excitement that spring is on its way . . .

happy march! wishing you a month filled with sunlit happiness,

. . . an entire thirty-three days of the new year has already come and gone, and so far, things are off to a beautiful start -- have somehow, someway, managed to keep all resolutions, and for some long-forgotten {sentimental, perhaps, romantic, for certain} reason, february has always been one of my very favourite months . . .

happy brand new month! hope it is filled with endless love & possibilities,

{p.s.} more tiffany's blue inspiration

. . . in all the busy-ness of the past few weeks and ever-enchanting pre-holiday excitement, had barely realized a new month had quietly arrived and if truth be told, must confess am often the tiniest bit more fond of september and october and all the blustery autumn promises they bring -- the golden morning light and magic of turning leaves, days in light trenches and evenings that still linger -- november, however, is often imagined with thoughts of overcast skies and chilly rains, and once the last of the leaves has fallen, cloudy days that end too soon . . . and yet, november has its own promises: nights wrapped in mohair and wool tartan blankets, pretty cashmere gloves with delicate crystal buttons, warm, crackling fires and the intoxicating romance of candlelight on evenings in, and most of all, the beautiful anticipation of the coming holiday season . . .

{p.s.} also new today: red wine & ripe cranberry

. . . may still be wondering how we got here so quickly, but must confess that the month of june is an absolute and longtime favourite -- from here until summer's end, it's luxurious long weekends and afternoons on the water, butterflies and fireflies and midnight swims, moonlit kisses and bright mornings, sexy bare shoulders and everything sun-kissed . . .

happy june! hope it's off to a beautiful start,
xo
