{have a beautiful weekend + links}

hello again! perhaps a little astonishing how quickly the time has flown, as it would seem as if the days are fading beautifully into one, and after a wonderfully busy and rather eventful week, spending a little time lost in love and the possibilities of the night sky, enveloped in floral linen mornings and, most of all, languidly late afternoons spent lounging about . . .

whatever your plans may be, hope you're having a beautiful weekend,
-r. xo

{at home with: photographer carter smith}

. . . back from an idyllic weekend in the countryside and still dreaming of deep, rich tones for the coming days when the sound of fallen leaves breaks the mid-afternoon silence and warm and romantic fireplaces crackle with newly chopped wood and everywhere, dark rich hues -- the colours of autumn . . .

. . . and here, carter smith's photographic work, intermingled with the warm deep colours of his darkly cozy home . . .
