. things we love .

 
... completely guilty of adoring the glossy pages of almost any good shelter
magazine (the mr. would gladly like to do away with my collection)... 
but lately have been noticing that although many of the featured homes are breathtaking, 
there is a certain element of intimacy missing?  a 20k credenza here and 
a 10k sofa there, and a 2k lamp here... all pieces striking and lovely,
but hard to imagine real life falling into place in such rooms.
hence, seem to be drawn to rooms that are less "perfect"...more personal, 
more interesting, and more of a story to be told.
throw out some of the decorating and let's surround
ourselves with items and things we love.
 . . .

...i imagine the woman who lives in the bedroom above has
a fancy party to go to this evening, and in such a rush her bed was
neglected. with a slight chill in the air she lit a fire for comfort and smiles
everytime she sees the drawing of herself, 
a gift from an old lover who was quite the artist...
now that is interesting!

. lace obsession continues .

after musing here and here,
it seems that lace obsession continues with
the loveliest of lovely dress.
happy friday!

. let them eat cake * smittenesque .

dear friends,
quite hard to believe that a year ago today was the first post here at smittenesque... 
and in the world of blogland there will be ball gowns and heels, balloons and streamers, 
cake and champagne, dancing and more dancing to celebrate!  
i do hope you have been inspired at some point 
and quite possibly become entirely smitten...
xoxo

. anticipation for the new year .


always always always, adore the new year...
it's as if one can wipe the slate clean and start
again with a crisp new piece of chalk...
what are you writing into the masterpiece that is your
life this year?
hmmmmm.... for me.... so so many things

. just pretty * a night at the county fair .

blue ribbon winners, ponies to ride, a delicious corn dog and a coke,
fluffy cotton candy, and tickets for the carousel to end the night.
oh, how lovely is the county fair...

. fluffy friday .

fluffy dresses, with sparkle and tulle
laces, and cinching, and tying, with fans to stay cool
one after one, more beautiful than the last
my oh my how the time flies fast
but finally toes in first to a pile of silk and chiffon
and behold my heart strings are gone...
i found the one
