GLAMOUR PHOTOGRAFY

"who knows where this path will take us but let's go forth hand in hand and promise not to let go because it may lead us somewhere vast & amazing"

. . . trench coats and tartan skirts, kitten heels and argyle sweaters, another autumn weekend is here again, and everywhere, leaves are falling, falling to the last fading rays of golden light, and there are deep coral sunsets and charming pubs with velvet benches to look forward to, apple orchards in the late afternoon and evenings spent lingering by the fireplace, deep in conversation well past midnight . . .

à bientôt / see you soon -- hope you're having a stunningly lovely weekend & that it's beautiful where you are,

. . . fashionably late once more and it's quickly becoming clear that things will continue to be a little sporadic around here as summertime's chaos continues and that's what makes it so beautiful -- the dashing about, the projects & plans and late lunches -- only to slow things down {just a little} on weekends, when the world slips away and there is nothing left but the sound of crashing waves and everything comes in shades of buttercream . . .

hope you're having a wonderful week,
xo

The stockings in these pictures are so amazing, they truly are deserving of their own post! Whose are they? We don't know (because we don't own a physical copy of the Marie Claire UK issue), but based on the 'outfit post' blogs we've visited, we've seen some pretty cool similar styles by Urban Outfitters, F21, ASOS and Only Hearts. If you don't already own a pair of lace tights, now is the time to get them! We're not sure how long this trend will last, but it's certainly a trend worth wearing while you can.
By the way, that sexy bodysuit is worth a mention too - how sexy!!

P.S. - Faire Frou Frou boutique will be re-opening very soon! Keep checking in for our Grand Re-Opening announcement!!!! In the meantime, you can still shop on our website at www.fairefroufrou.com, which will also be unveiling its new look in a few weeks!
