taste: laduree macarons

when i bought these
laduree was having a collab
with louboutin...
so i got mine in a little limited edition box
which featured louboutin designs all over it!

there was also this man, who was making
his purchase right before me
and he bought GBP500 worth!
i almost wanted to ask if he wouldn't mind
just paying for mine too.

see: yellow submarine

how very, very cool is this!?
for those people who love tea as much as i do,
this is perhaps one of the coolest things i have seen.

all i can hear in my head right now is:
'we all live in a yellow submarine, a yellow submarine, yellow submarine...'

see: deep blues, violets, and sparks of gold

i love sunday suppers
as it inspires many of us to take dinners and table settings
to a whole new level!
brilliant people - artists, renowned chefs, stylists, photographers, etc -
all come together and participate in this 'class-cookin-dining experience'.
anyway, i really really love the winter dinner series.
i love the richness of the colour palette, and yes,
i love, love, love the terrariums that were
incorporated in this setting!

see: blush + snow

sometimes i daydream
of paris or prague
in the winter
and somehow i picture everything
in a shade of
the warmest white,
the palest grey,
and the pinked cheeks of girls who live
in these cities where magic exists in the everyday...

images from studio violet
and the society ink

see: winter blues

see: dreaming of gypsies

i think one could so easily appropriate
this palette for a warmer winter
and a holiday bursting with colours
taken from the heart of gems and jewels,
and the life of travelling gypsies...







(p.s. i think i my next major trip will be to: egypt, jordan, turkey and morocco)

images from this beautiful and brilliant site

feel: crisp autumn days

al and i spent a beautiful autumn afternoon
raking leaves in his front yard
and i found some pretty autumnal things
to gather and take photos of...

and now we're indoors again
eating warm herb chicken soup
melba toast
and sharp cheddar cheese...

see: peeks of red

i think of fall
when i think of
apple reds...
