. . . perfectly pretty in lace for day, and dramatically strapless and floor-length for night, still quite smitten with deep coral for the shops and flower markets in the afternoon, and the ballet in the evening . . .

. . . and as promised, another glimpse of monique lhuillier's perfect collection, resplendent with paillettes and drapes and flows, a dusting of sequins and magnolias hand-painted on organza and woven into jacquard and most of all, the promise of magical evenings, the ballet or dinner for two, or just hanging out looking gorgeous . . .
{p.s.} and to p, reminds me of you:
"If you are not too long, I will wait here for you all my life."

. . . a longstanding love affair with monique lhuillier for as long as can remember, and couldn't possibly choose between such a stunning array of beautiful things from the spring 2011 collection, and so, not one, but two glimpses, the first, strewn in magnolias on silk and chiffon and belted in gold . . .
