{décor inspiration: rustic & refined}

. . . there is something about shades of silvery lilac and dusky lavender that can never resist, and especially when intermingled with rustic elements just in time for cosy autumn nights . . .

{happy autumn + have a beautiful weekend}

. . . and it would seem that september whirled by more quickly than the rest, and suddenly, it is autumn, and as promised, have been adding dashes of white, here & there, for just a few moments longer, at least until the leaves begin to fall, [although must confess, beginning to fall in love with the thought of cosy sweaters and romantic nights by the fire], and while things may have been happily filled with busy-ness the past few weeks, this weekend has been a perfect change of pace, filled with sunshine and saturday markets, and today, perhaps brunch, the flower markets and a walk along the water . . .

hope you're having a magical autumn weekend, and that it's beautiful where you are, roséline xo

{two lovely things: clean lines & cozy afternoons}

. . . famously known for maximalist tendencies, am sometimes surprised when irresistibly drawn to unadorned walls and clean, modern lines, although, having always grown up in homes with fireplaces, perhaps the lure of a roaring fire in this last day of january is simply too much to bear . . .
