{brand new at this is glamorous}

. . . and in between the unpacked suitcases and last-minute trips, overflowing inboxes and busy days at the office, the starry autumn nights in silvery shoes and champagne, there was time to dream up brand new and wonderful things . . . one of which, is below . . .

{storage inspiration: silver trays & julep cups}

. . . whether gold leaf or silver, seem to be on the topic of trays quite a bit recently, for storage and for display, whether it is used for a few favourite scents [above], or an array of beautiful compacts [below], everything always seems a little more refined when displayed on an elegant tray . . .





. . . and currently, make-up brushes, touche éclat, q-tips, and tortoise-shell combs reside in finished diptyque glass candle holders, but perhaps, julep cups in silver and gold may be a lovely change . . .

{a beautiful spring weekend + late-sunday links}

. . . the weather has been so astonishingly lovely, it is nearly impossibly not to be swept away by the blossom-scented breezes and glittering rays of sunlight . . . and this weekend was out-of-town guests and charming dinner conversations, luxuriously late mornings and sunday brunch {smoked salmon & scrambled eggs with chives, rosti, creamed horseradish & caviar} and time to fall in love all over again with every last moment along the way . . .

happy april! hope you've had a spectacular spring weekend & that it's beautiful where you are, roséline xo
