{summer inspiration: a perfect picnic}

. . . if you have been reading for a while, you will know about a certain and undying love for summer afternoon picnics, as well as for the fun accessories that go along with such romantic afternoons, and this picnic hamper from spanish fashion label loewe could not be lovelier -- gold-rimmed china and gilded flatware, all held together with perfect pink accents -- add a little champagne and a dashing companion, and the world falls away . . .

{the first exciting news of the new year}

. . . hello again! . . . had mentioned much, much earlier there would be fun news today . . . and so, a little fashionably late, {and those on twitter may have already heard}, but in case you haven't . . . as you know, have loved lonny magazine since the premiere issue over two years ago, but absolutely adore the current issue most of all, for it contains the most beautiful feature . . .






{a few of my favourite things}

thanks ever so much to ellie and everyone at lonny -- and to you, of course -- for always making everything so much more fun xo
