{dusky lilac, smokey lavender & hello}

. . . hello again! had not meant to go missing for quite as long, but as you know, with travel, things can sometimes get a little tricky when it comes to scheduling, and today, sunny, bright & beautiful in geneva, and with terrace cafés overlooking the lake and walks along cobblestone streets, still-leafy parks, fountains and cathedrals, was far too tempting to take the day to enjoy the unseasonably warm weather . . . not certain when there next will be a moment to say hello, but for now, leaving you with the utter sophistication of metallic wallcoverings, scalloped headboards and monogrammed bed linens, chandeliers and gilded mirrors, lavender velvet and de gournay . . .

à bientôt & hope your week is off to a perfect start,
roséline xo

{all in a day's work & a quick hello}

. . . a very quick hello on one of those days where everything seems to be getting away -- there are deadlines and amazingly long to-do lists, arrangements and appointments, and the emails have been piling up for days, and so, it's coffee and back to work . . .

hope your week is off to a perfect start,
roséline xo

{at the office: gilded mirrors & zebra print}

. . . without fail, every year, at this time, there is an extra fondness for layers, whether soft cardigans and long cashmere scarves out the door, or at home and in the office, where gilded glass, deep silk and sophisticated zebra print intermingle as if in a swirl of autumn splendor . . .

{an impossibly lovely weekend + links}

"We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures."

— Thornton Wilder

......................................................................................................

. . . this note began in a lovely little place just before dinner, a glass of wine and a dashing companion, and this weekend has been a dream-filled tumble of lovely things: friday evening dinner {a delectable shrimp & crab salad made of butter lettuce, chives, cherry tomatoes, and avocado}, terraces and {perfectly ghastly} eighties films, fluttery silk dresses and shimmery bare golden shoulders, morning walks and easy conversations, late, late nights and summer stars . . .

hope you've had an astonishingly wonderful weekend and that it was beautiful where you are, roséline xo

{décor inspiration: tufted velvet & drops of crystal}

. . . have always held a special fondness for velvet, and especially tufted velvet, {and anything tufted, really}, and as the bright late-autumn days drift slowly into long winter nights, there is a longing for decadently warm and elegantly luxurious textures -- golden velvet against driftwood and snow-white faux fur beautifully intermingled with crystal droplets falling from silver candelabras and glittering as shooting stars on a crisp november night . . .
