Hello! I’ve rounded up a bunch of things I’ve been admiring for this week’s Cavalcade! post. I can’t see that much of a cohesive theme this time in this selection–do you? Maybe ‘organic chalky patina’ and ‘relaxed cool’?? And ‘pie’. Ha. Unsure, but I love and am inspired by all of these beauties. See more Cavalcade! posts HERE. I love this look for spring from Clu. My new favorite... Read More

Hi. I’ve put together another avalanche of things I’ve been admiring lately. This Cavalcade! roundup seems to have a rose, powder and enchantment theme going on. A few of these have been on my mind for YEARS. Sigh. See more of my Cavalcade! posts HERE. I love this dreamy photograph by Melanie Rodriguez from her “Motel Paris” series. Beautiful blown glass necklaces–so noodly! I love the powdery lookbook. This rose-frankincense-patchouli... Read More

So pretty. The Ouija board with friends in a rose crown.... Read More

Here is another roaring waterfall of things I’ve been admiring lately. It’s always interesting to find that these things loosely share a common thread of color, mood or theme. I hope you find some things that pique your interest as well! See more of my Cavalcade! posts HERE. The amazing Alla Nazimova in Oscar Wilde’s 1923 film, Salomé. A pretty little blue dress. I love the sleeves! I love all these lovely handmade blue and white... Read More

I did it! I did it! I put together another Cavalcade! post. So many people seemed to enjoy last week’s edition that I was inspired to finally get my act together and made it happen again. Maybe I’ll put one together for next Thursday as well. So, maybe this will be a Thursday thing? Does that sound good? I’ll give it a go. See more Cavalcade! posts HERE. This vintage cotton nightgown looks very comfy for spring and summer nights. I... Read More
