Good morning gorgeous! Don’t you love these photos? The girl and the composition are lovely. She looks so natural and girlish. Gives you a reason not to get a tan this summer, doesn’t it?

{playing my heartstrings}
I have a thing for violins. In my opinion, the violin invokes more emotion than any other instrument. It’s such an elegant and intelligent instrument. It is said that the violin has as much range as the human voice, which is why it is particularly good at imitating and invoking human emotions in songs. I also think it has something to do with the fact that stringed instruments played with bows can hold notes much longer than instruments that rely on human breath. It’s on my list of things to do before I die. In the meantime, I have a bassoon and guitar sitting in my room that need some attention.
I also did a post for Design Tavern that included a violin and piano inspired building. Pop on over and visit. It’s a pretty awesome blog. Below, I’ve included a few songs from classical to pop that feature violins. If you have any suggestion, let me know and I will add them to the playlist. Enjoy!

I think these are fabulous. I know you will, too. {Quite a few items in shop are for use in weddings. Great way to carry the rings, no?}

{friday finds: yummy!}
I know this might sound odd, but I’ve never eaten a candied apple. I’ve never really had the desire to do so. That is, until I saw these lovely creations. They are so fun looking that I’m tempted to order one. I think they’d be lovely for a whimsical little party, too. {And we all know how much I adore parties.}
More yummy goodness at Double Dipped Sweets.
{friday finds: whimsical walkway}
This is such a whimsical and romantic walkway to have at home. From the catwalk collection by Minimis, the modular system is customizable to create a deck or walkway and comes in LED lit panels or sustainable brazilian wood.

I’ve been given a blog award by Much Love Anna and Under Lock and Key! {Yay!} I like awards. They make me do a happy dance.
I happily pass this award onto:

3. {Chanel No. 5 bath oil} have been luckily pampered recently; luxuriating in this velvety liquid is now an essential part of my daily routine.
4. {lingerie} there is nothing more sexy than wearing the finest lingerie your budget can afford; on occasion, I have lounged around the house, made up, wearing spectacular lingerie under a cashmere cardigan… life is meant to be enjoyed, n’est pas?
5. {a spectacular chandelier} chandeliers exquisitely and instantly beautify any space.
6. {vintage jewelery and being stylishly eccentric} a unique and creative way to enrich and personalize your wardrobe.
7. {tablescaping} as I love to entertain and want guests to feel special… fine wine, flowers, candles, quality silverware, a exotic tablecloth, place cards and individual miniature salt and pepper shakers are a must in our household.
8. {fine photography} like the one above makes me happy.
9. {enjoying nature} an abundance of awe-inspiring scenes surround us.
10. {loving and being loved} waking up each day to my soul mate.
