{summer inspiration: a crown of blossoms}

I question not if thrushes sing,
If roses load the air;
Beyond my heart I need not reach
When all is summer there.

-- John Vance Cheney

. . . and doesn't it seem like everything moves by more languidly and yet more quickly all at once in the summertime?

* summer of love
* ruffles & florals
* pure romance
* at home
* hazy summer days

{style inspiration: luxe layers}

. . . and while we're on the topic of dusky neutrals and rich textures, one of the best things about autumn's inevitable fade into winter is the luxe layering -- cashmere camel cardigans over lightweight floor-length dresses, cozy italian wool sweaters belted over navy pullovers, and deep tartans intermingling with sheer and pretty pleats . . .
