good {late} morning! monday, monday . . . and hope you've had a perfectly stunning weekend -- here it's been afternoon drives and magical turning leaves, dazzling nightskies and romantically cozy cashmere nights . . . but now, it's back to work, and since we're still away for one extra day, it's strong coffees and out of the office, laptops and iphones and that wonderful feeling of being on holiday while working, although must confess that being immersed in such beautiful things hardly feels like work at all . . .
happy, happy monday! hope your week is off to a perfect start,
xo

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,

. . . 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 . . .

. . . hello! a bright & crisp september morning of a new week, and if summer has flown by quickly, this month has taken on an astonishing pace and perhaps already a little too chilly for open-toed sandals and on the weekend, tall leather boots for the very first time . . . but despite changing temperatures, very much looking forward to mornings in cozy knits, and especially marigold-coloured knitted capelets . . .
hope your week is off to a perfect start,
xo
