{have a beautiful weekend + late-sunday links}

. . . there is just something about sundays -- everything seems to slow down to a perfect pace, and whether off to the countryside, catching flights or catching up on beauty sleep, it is nearly impossible not to relax on sundays and it's positively luxurious . . . and while last week was filled with loveliness, working in sun-drenched cafés and evening walks with the dog that ended in new summer wedges and a little black dress, there is a certain hope about sundays that always leaves time for brunch, a good book, the flower markets, handwritten letters, and moments lost in daydreams . . .

hope you're having a wonderful weekend & that it's beautiful where you are, ~roséline xo

{have a beautiful early march weekend}

. . . this week seemed to have flitted by in a flutter of eyelashes, so much so, that can hardly believe was just in paris last week; and after all the on-flight flims and overflowing travel cases, {secretly} delighted to spend a little time at home, just the two of us, before sunday's out of town dinner . . . for at this moment, it's glassware the colour of smokey quartz, belted coats and languid slants of sunlight, elegant evening bags and coffee-table picnics for two . . .

wishing you an extravagantly relaxing weekend, and that it's beautiful where you are, ~roséline xo

{décor inspiration: always herringbone}

. . . while chevron most certainly comes close, in the end, and from any view point, there is nothing quite like the timeless elegance of herringbone . . .

{from convoy, discovered via chelsea on twitter }

{décor inspiration: always herringbone}

. . . can never resist a chevron or herringbone floor, especially when mixed with moulding, elegantly panelled walls and beautiful bits of light . . .

{p.s.} more chevron & herringbone:
* all dressed up
* a paris apartment
* perfectly ornate
* all in a day's work
* enchanted afternoons
* a charming mix

{office inspiration: light & bright}

. . . after spending two days organizing and re-organizing the office, have been irresistibly drawn to images of office inspiration, and while aerin lauder's classic white & gold décor will always be a favourite, quite adore this light and bright workspace with french doors and wood panelled walls, luxuriously over-sized and mirrored desk, and most certainly, the glossy, honey-coloured herringbone floors . . .

{p.s.} more office inspiration

{image: laura ponte via nuevo estilo via vt interiors}

{home inspiration: scandinavian style}

. . . there is so much to love about this workspace -- the modern desk juxtaposed with the grand gilt mirror, the stacks of magazines for inspiration and the candlelight, the luxurious pools of drapery, and of course and most of all, the herringbone floors . . .

{p.s.} more beautiful glimpses, including a cozy settee and crackling fire, and elegantly wrapped gifts strewn about:

{at home with: freunde von freunden}

{home of kirsten hermann, stylist & gallerist}

. . . my wonderful friend felicity always sends along the most amazing things, and freunde von freunden is one of them: a berlin-based selby-esque {perhaps a little more gritty & artsy} project by german design agency no more sleep, that documents the agency's friends, partners and creative people around berlin in their living or workspace; overflowing with visual details, the shots are glimpses that feel like an exclusive look behind the scenes . . .

{photographer: andy liffner}

. . . crazy in love with the french doors and herringbone floors, marble staircases and velvet armchairs, crystal and murano chandeliers and soft floods of light captured in these beautiful spaces by photographer andy liffner, but most of all, irresistibly drawn to the perfectly elegant touches of smokey violet in petals and throw cushions and strewn about the walls on wonderfully charming floral paper . . .
