GLAMOUR PHOTOGRAFY

. . . aside from nicole richie's brass seven-strand coin headpiece, few hair accessories have been as stunningly lovely—that is, until the utterly enchanting shooting stars seen on the runways at rodarte . . .

[as always, a million more beautiful things below] x

"I believe in manicures. I believe in overdressing. I believe in primping at leisure and wearing lipstick."

. . . there is just something about sundays -- everything seems to slow down to a perfect pace, and whether off to the countryside, catching flights or catching up on beauty sleep, it is nearly impossible not to relax on sundays and it's positively luxurious . . . and while last week was filled with loveliness, working in sun-drenched cafés and evening walks with the dog that ended in new summer wedges and a little black dress, there is a certain hope about sundays that always leaves time for brunch, a good book, the flower markets, handwritten letters, and moments lost in daydreams . . .

hope you're having a wonderful weekend & that it's beautiful where you are, ~roséline xo

. . . a dashing out the door day and on the way to a long lunch on a terrace overlooking the park, oversized sunglasses and a classic chignon, always a coffee in hand -- but first, a quick hello and the promise to return later in the day with more beautiful inspiration . . .

hope you're having an extraordinarily lovely week so far,
xo

At eleven years of age, had the bedroom re-painted a perfect pink, and wore nothing else for two entire years.



Have since added more colours to my life {maybe not blue}, but have never given up my ultrafemme ways . . . whispery blouses, impossibly high heels, lip gloss, and ruffles . . .

Definitely beginning to warm to the elegant gray in the living room, and there seems to be a sexy, smoky cast on everything, replacing the stark, bright eggshell that used to grace the walls.

Adore wearing gray, yet have never been surrounded by its sophisticated hues until now, had never seen the way Venetian glass mirrors sparkle against so luxurious a backdrop . . .
