GLAMOUR PHOTOGRAFY

. . . there is something quite mesmerising about the still life photographs of inês nepomuceno — taken in a studio with an analog camera, a series of photographs of her daily meals, "the banality of this food was transformed by the medium" into a beautiful play of light & shadow, resulting in a painterly quality that is strikingly lovely . . .

. . . tasseled drapes and soft lighting, tufted settees and silk cushions, crisp white table cloths and silver-rimmed china, salmon pasta shell roll, served with toast, lox and caviar, freshly backed biscuits with clotted cream, tea and delicate pastries and it's champagne afternoon tea at the dorchester . . .

. . . warm neutrals, deep blues and pale blues, silver & gold, warm slate & evergreen -- so many beautiful colour combinations for the holiday season, and while this year may be white & gold, perhaps, little bits of rose may find their way into glasses and cushions, cakes and pastries and the edges of teacups . . .

. . . this weekend has been soft lights and afternoon tea, golden and crimson leaves fluttering softly, softly; and warm autumn winds and dusky shadows; perfect light and plenty of time to dream . . .

hope you're having an impossibly lovely weekend, and that it's beautiful where you are, roséline xo

. . . yesterday, late-monday afternoon, a dress and boots and camel coat, we, [p & i] took a little time out to take in an art fair, and on the way out the door, noticed his attire, dashing as ever in a chambray shirt and grey tweed blazer, and tan leather brogues, and thought again about perfect juxtapositions -- old & new and rustic & refined, modern & traditional, and city & country -- and so, to this unabashedly romantic and feminine place, shall add a little mix of boyish charm, just for p. . . .

. . . a luxuriously low-key weekend spent lounging in golden sweaters and linen trousers, a late-night film {midnight in paris -- have you seen?} and a starlight stroll under the still-lingering scent of lilacs, slices of walnut bread & honey comb and many cups of coffee, and most of all, the sharing of secrets and the making of plans . . .

hope you've had a summery, romantic weekend & that it's beautiful where you are, roséline xo
