Today

I am reading...

...a french novel.

I am wearing...

...silver earrings from Istanbul.

I am smelling of...

...deliciousness!

I am sipping...

...sparkly pink lemonade.

I am wishing I was somewhere like...

...this!
Musée Gustave Moreau, Paris.

It's been a good (and, apparently, frosty-pink!) day.

Oh how I love the old-fashioned surprise package!

Last one I received had a pair of gorgeous earrings inside! Hand-assembled by my best friend A.! They are the PERFECT spring accessory - light, nature-themed, simple in design and with a bit of a sparkle. I've worn them almost every day since I got them!^^ If anyone's interested, she has some for sale:) You can make enquiries on her blog here!:D

here's me in my new sparkles^^:

Birds and Bees and all Fruit Trees...

Oh I do wish Spring would just cure her hangover already, pull back the curtains and look at us with those pretty little leaves and flowers of hers. In return I propose to write poems and wear adornments in Her name!;)

Neck Lace

I have fallen in love with the idea of crocheted applications as jewellery. Such condensed richness of pattern! What precision of execution! So intricate, so delicate, so fragile. Feminine, but with a kinky edge. A cross between my great-grandma's crocheted collar mom would put on my Sunday dresses and... an arabesque tattoo.

Each one is so unique... I want them all!
