The memories of short lived loves pulled through time by loves devoted loyalty.
Unmended hearts torn apart again and again.

Found Beating

Almost alive

Beads dripping

Teardrops slide

Lights shine

Eager to arrive

So you sigh

Yet my Heart

Beats

Almost alive

As we go ahead with our lives for our todays and our tomorrows - words of wisdom from Karl Lagerfeld.

Find our places, make our places, create our places, in this place and time we all have our own unique voices and visions.

Yes these words have been said before. Said in different ways by different  people for different generations and for different reasons.  None the less Mr Karl Lagerfeld's words here are our very own strands of lustrous pearls of wisdom, said for us all to wear as we wish.


What spoke to me and my heart was what Mr. Lagerfeld said right off the bat

"I mean that somebody in a job like mine or a journalist like Mr Minkus who  are in this kind of business for a few years, to be nice to ourselves"

Yes, how charming at times not easy but so very important. So let's be  nice to ourselves:)

"If you think it was better more interesting than before  - no
it is us up to adjust to our times and the minute you think the past was better, your present is second hand and yourself becomes vintage. It's ok for clothes, It is not that great for people"

Yes, it is our own personal responsiblity. Be here, be present and be interested in our own lives. Regardless of what set of circumstances one faces. So let's be great people of interest.)


I found this interview and Mr. Lagerfeld's philosphies and unanswered questions surrounding life and luxury pertinent.  Universally easy for all of us to apply in these times. Anyone may choose to wear these strands of lustrous pearls of wisdom unlike certain unattainable luxuries this world offers to only the few who can afford them.

Let me now leave you in the hands of Coco Chanel

"Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury" Coco Chanel

Cloak my beauty

Behind Boudoir Bolts
Three faces define my masks
Drape my sheer daring

Beckoning
Hither to me
Linger
Caress me

Slitted Sashsay Spells
Let mirrors lustre peek behind
Wrap my bows knots

Tantalizing
Hold me
Treasure
Command me

Cloak my beauty

I love this girl!  I can't wait for 2011 and for her new album to be released. Then she will touring! Then I will get to see her live again!

Exciting! I get so excited I can't think properly!

My brain gets so happy, I am sure every synapse in there is firing 100 times faster than normal. Sometimes I can't even put two words together because of the frienzy in my brain. When something I love really gets me tingling all over, well let's say I provide a laugh or two for my friends n family when they witness this state!

"That's Frozen"

Sitting with a rich cup of dark tea, ideally steeped.  Warm smooth and delightful. Sunshine beams fill my home as precious sunny days are fading. Soon to be reawakened as frosty snowy chilly days. A morning to linger,  lounge and bask in this little gift from nature.

How I came to be inspired to bake up a batch of sour cherry scones this morning is beyond me? How an almost perfect morning presented itself to inspire a moment of self indulgence? How I discovered this enchanted video minutes after I sat down to enjoy a cup of tea and a warm scone with devonshire cream before I headed out to enjoy my warm sunny day? How I found a little distraction drawing my attention to this video? A most unexpected spark, yes? How my imagination took me back to being a little girl, lost in her fairtale day dreams, a world of never ending dress up? All of my questions of how, cannot be answered. How this all came to be? I believe it is not important, it simply all came to be.


Watch & listen to the pretty music. Enjoy learning about the roots and history of fashion as you are guided through this period, The Georgian Era 1700- 1780.  With pretty beautiful elaborate dresses inspiring many little girls' fairy tale dreams.


Like Alice Through The Looking Glass, you well be mesmorized, enchanted and lost within your own fairy tale dream.

Don't be late!
