Take Me Away

Off for a well-deserved break from the past few busy, busy weeks... And by the time you read this shall be well on my way to Austria and then Czech Republic -- on a beautiful adventure leading me along the Danube river, past castles and old stone bridges, swept away by years of history, amidst picturesque gardens and old world romance of cobblestoned streets and quaint cafes.

Hello, London

The weekend has begun with golden rays of morning sun streaming through tall windows on my bed and my thoughts are drifting, drifting off to a city I shall never tire of – London, with its enchanting grey skies and romantic history that castes the most beautiful backdrop to every day life in perhaps one of the most visited cities of the world.

It feels like a million years ago that I visited London and yet I have vivid memories of its grand architecture softened with pretty fauna, uniforms and parades, delicious teas prepared and served at London bed and breakfasts, the Buckingham palace with images of monarchy, leisurely boat rides along Regent’s Canal and evenings out at the theatre…

A sweet nostalgia for all the places visited and many more yet to wander and discover

Of English Dreams & Weddings

Have you seen Jenny Packham’s 2014 wedding collection yet? It is made of intoxicatingly dreamy gowns inspired from the Belle Epoque (or beautiful) era! And just like that a longstanding dream of an English wedding at one these wedding venues in London; dressed in flutters of silk and wisps of tulle surfaces…

Plunging backs, graceful tulle sleeves and intricate embellishments of twinkling crystals in spectrums of champagne and silver

Packham’s collection is perfectly designed for walking down the isle at a chic English wedding on a sunny saturday in June, and yet can also imagine the modern bride twirling around in gorgeousness and dancing until dawn at her post-wedding reception in one of these beauties.
