turkey calling


Speaking of lounging in my new tulle suit... Cappadocia, Turkey seems like the perfect place to do so!
How exotic and exciting do these cave hotels look? Envisioning my suitcase now!

tulle success!

tulle-jcrew
This tulle swimsuit has been exactly what I've been searching high and low for!  Thank you J.Crew for making my dreams come true, yet again.  I've been on a relentless hunt for the perfect bustier-inspired bodysuit to wear under full length skirts, to tuck into wide-leg jeans, to wear under a leather jacket, and it looks like my search has come to an end.  Can't wait until I receive this in the mail! It would also be darling to wear as a lounge swimsuit, as intended I suppose, while sipping on a mimosa!

gold tumblers

Wanting these gold glasses from One Kings Lane.  They would add sparkle to any table setting!

an american in paris

Yearning for Paris!  Can't stop myself from daydreaming of all of the adventures I would have traipsing around town with my wicker basket filled with Laudree macrons.  Contemplating when I can take my next trip there...it must be in the spring or summer so I can pay a visit to Monet's gardens!  Oh Paris (read: pear-ee), how I miss thee.
Amazing how iPhone's have completely changed documenting your travels, isn't it? I still prefer my SLR but these photographs from RiflePaper have me thinking twice.

vintage wedding at adele manor

This couple got hitched in the loveliest of vintage weddings on a hill just outside of New York City. Adele Manor is an abandoned (who would abandon this mansion? not me!) country estate that an was bulit in 1912. Three stories, an extraordinary library, ballroom, onservatory, and indoor pool make up this mansion that served as the perfect backdropfor this wedding.

I'm a romantic who loves seeing the age on a building, I think it adds a certain layer of depth and detail moderism is without.

Loving these sun-soaked images straight from Stockholm.  Especially since she's wearing my latest favorite combination - a full length skirt with stacked platforms. How do you say "Adore" in Swedish?

i'm back, and with a tumblr!

Hello loves! It's been ages since I've blogged...I've been caught up in a whirlwind of work and life in general and haven't had a moment to post in the past few months.  But I'm back and am trying my best to be a bit more diligent here. Annnd I've created a new Tumblr for quick snaps of things from my everyday, or for things I stumble upon worth sharing.  You can see it at http://www.letsindulge.tumblr.com/ !  I hope you enjoy.  I've missed blogging and have so much to catch up on xx
