dresses wish list

i have wish lists
for almost everything

travel wish list
shoes wish list
concert tickets wish list

but no list is as long
as my dress wish list

i adore dresses so much
that i would trade
all the pleasures of today
to return to the 1950s
& prance around in a different dress
every day

dresses are without a doubt
my favourite piece of clothing
they are to me what shoes are
to most ladies (and guys)
i'm always craving new ones

i found quite a few
i was fond of
at modcloth

summer must haves.
emphasis on the must.

kisses,

tea cupping

hi!

hope all is well.

funny story.

for a while, i've been meaning
to post about one of my favourite
things
ever!

china tea cups

some truly epitomize
the words
"simply lovely"

funny story part,
i was chatting with my friend
and fellow blogger
ms. caitie
and demanded that she blog more often

"what about?"
she inquired.
i revealed that my next post will be about
china tea cups
& in that instant she frantically responded
that moments ago, she had entered the words
"tea cups" into an image search

crazy!

guess we're pretty connected in the blogosphere

upon this incident she's rightfully bestowed
the name,
"the tea cup incident"

back to tea cups.

their fragility & simplicity
amazes me &
aesthetically intrigues me

wishing you many tea parties this summer,

images: coming soon!

lazy days, wonderful finds

it's been one of those lazy days

i hid under the covers

avoiding my books

for hours

was quite abusive

towards the snooze button

oops.

i've finally surrendered

raised the white flag,

picked up those books,

and entered the library

this week

i found some photos

i really like

the tattoo in the first is beautiful,

i would never get a tattoo

something so permanent

frightens me

but it looks so lovely on her wrist

the wallpaper in the second photo

is my desktop image!

i couldn't believe it at first

also, i love her dress

the final photo

reminds me of sitting on grass

on a spring evening

without a spec of responsibility

nor a hint of worry

lots of polite european cheeks kisses,

-m
