I’m a fan of perfectly messy, upswept hair. And, I happen to think the nape of the neck is one of the most gorgeous spots on the body. Naturally, I find these photos positively perfect. I may just need to put a few seastars in my hair this summer…

Also known as green-yellow and pearl, chartreuse is one of the only greens I like. I’ve always wanted a couch in this color, but I’d settle for a beautiful pillow with a satin ribbon or the most frivolous, eye-catching, delicious heels. I love its richness and its playfulness.

This is so incredible. Possibly one of the most stunning plays on light I’ve ever seen. I’m not quite sure that I’d ever want to leave this underwater inspired haven.

I’ve been dreaming in soft candy colors at the circus and desperately seeking these beautiful balloons. I’m a jewel-tone girl, but the cotton candy shades in the above photos, as well as in this editorial, have me dreaming of spring style.
With all the madness of the past few weeks {including this blog being hacked}, I’m happy to be getting back to blogging. I’m especially excited to get this series going again. What better way to resume the series than with the blogger who first inspired me to blog? Our guest today is Roseline of This Is Glamorous. Her amazing blog never fails to take my breath away, as I’m sure it does yours. I hope you enjoy her post as much as I do. Here are a few things that make her life everyday beautiful…

{memories}
. . . film tickets from late-summer nights, blowing kisses in photo booths, champagne corks from momentous occasions, stacks and stacks of faded photographs and love letters tied with ribbon — a hopeless romantic and at times all together too sentimental, tend to keep small remembrances of beautiful moments . . .

{the ocean}
. . . what is it about the lull of crashing waves and soft, sandy shores that seem to fill sunlit afternoons with reveries and endless possibilities?

{traveling}
. . . whether it’s a weekend away or a week in paris, taking in the moments of life in a far-off place is one of the loveliest things . . .

{little luxuries}
. . . a weekly bouquet of hollywood cerise roses or a new pair of heels, a summer picnic or a handwritten letter, vintage champagne or being lost in daydreams — little luxuries are like moments of repose in the midst of busy days . . .

{being in love}
. . . it is said to make the world go round and is by far the best thing of all . . .

I’d like to live here. Yes, I know it’s a shop, but wouldn’t it be cool?

I’ve got a thing for candy colored everything this week. Can you tell? I’d be happy to sit at a circus with popcorn and cotton candy in hand. I’ve secretly always wanted to learn the trapeze or silk ropes. I think I would have been the type to run away with the circus.

In the mood for sweet treats in pretty colors and these enormous balloons that feel straight out of my childhood dreams. Above all, I love the muted colors of the balloons. They look like the ones I dreamt of as a child, despite having never seen balloons as beautiful as these in my childhood.
