{moments of repose . . .}

. . . after a whirlwind week, very much looking forward to a few days of repose, and {as the days magically become longer} even more so, for the fresh early spring afternoons when the floaty & flirty summer whites that have been waiting patiently in the back of the closet will see the sunlight once again -- lacy sleeves and hemlines, pretty lengths of ribbon and feathery sweaters, sexy sheer tops and romantic skirts -- all only too perfect for moments spent lost in daydreams . . .

{avis de beau temps}

. . . one of the many new year's resolutions for this year is to work less & play more, and for the office, a perfect mix of tweed blazers and silk scarves, pretty cardigans and structured handbags, secretary blouses and strappy peeptoes -- and for the weekend -- nautical stripes and sexy shades for an afternoon at the beach . . .

{p.s.} another resolution
