GLAMOUR PHOTOGRAFY

. . . mirrored beside tables & shoe displays, desks, consoles, and even coffee carafes and shoes . . . as with chandeliers and bits of gold, there is something about mirrors that add such elegance, and while vanities have always been ultra-glamorous, when mirrored, things are elevated to another level entirely. . .

{p.s.} more mirrored vanities here & here

{two lovely things:}

one.
there is a mirrored tray on the marble vanity in the bathroom that holds favourite perfumes and an hermès box of hairpins, and every morning, adore the beautifully organized and perfectly pretty way everything looks, but had not thought to include a personal photograph -- such an inspiring idea!

two.
next to aerin lauder's glamorous white & gold office, this one has been a long-time favourite for its wonderfully elegant mirrored desk, inviting stacks of books and magazines, and always seem to work better when surrounded by shoes . . .

{two lovely things}: whether an extraordinarily elegant 1940s dressing table from the south of france or a exquisitely ornate 1920s mirrored table with a charming pink glass lamp and spring roses, the dazzling glimmer of mirrored things always infuses perfect glamour into every room . . .

{p.s.} a few things on this bright thursday morning:

* bicycling in heels
