KIND NOTES

Aren't these the prettiest wedding details ever? The very talented photographer is Marianne Taylor from England and I think she's capturing the loveliest elements and the most touching moments on weddings. Sometimes I spend hours on her blog cause I just can't have enough of its beauty...and I have to tell you, occasionally I even shed a tear...or two.
Congratulations on your dreamy wedding dear Anna & Russ and we wishing you endless happiness. Read more about this wedding here.
MY DREAMY WEDDING ESSENTIALS:
Well I realizing that, being able to wear all the gorgeous wedding dresses and accessories I'm in love with, I have to get married at least 3-4 times :-). Loving this classic Alexander McQueen dress and this bohemian Matthew Williamson gown. Also the Vivienne Westwood corseted gown and this oh so gorgeous georgette gown from Lanvin. This simple and sophisticated Yves Saint Laurent Wool-crepe shift dress is one of my favorite, along with these pretty Fendi satin pumps and the Smythson Wedding planner.

Colorful French macarons from Mexico? Why not? Theurel & Thomas is the first patisserie in Mexico specialized in French macarons, the most popular dessert of the French pastries.
The Theurel & Thomas patisserie has an enlightened space with an exclusivity and elegant atmosphere...perfectly ladylike I must say...
The store location is in San Pedro, Mexico, Latin America's most affluent suburb.
White is a central part of the design and it contrasts with the French macarons colors.
What a place right? I adore the design and would love to stop by here some day...Have a wonderful Friday evening dear friends and thanks for visiting this week.

Just discovered this beautiful image and it reminds me of how much I love wearing kaftans, tunics and maxi dresses during the summer time. I love the feeling of soft silk on my skin and how the fabrics gloriously swinging around my body...are you a kaftan lover?
KAFTAN RELATED LINK LOVE:
I'm in love with this magnificent Marchesa Silk-chiffon embroidered kaftan but practically anything from Marchesa would be more than welcome in my closet. Just like this Matthew Williamson Printed chiffon long kaftan. This simple and beautiful Emamó Embellished cotton kaftan is a perfect beachwear and I adore the sleeve details.
I also love this cheerful ALICE by TEMPERLEY: Holli broderie Anglaise kaftan and the this multicolor Anna Sui Printed silk-chiffon kaftan.

While I'm not a big fan of Sex and the City 2 and I was pretty disappointed in the movie I have to admit that I was head over heels about the design of Carrie and Big's apartment. As Carrie says in the movie their closet is like a lil' piece of heaven...and I must totally agree with her on that.
Their dining room is exquisite and I absolutely adore these beautiful chairs...
I love these light gray armchairs and this retro coffee table /which can be find here/.
This apartment style just works beautifully and I love every inch of it. What do you think?
MONDAY LINK LOVE:
Well, I haven't posted on Monday a long time and I'm so happy I can share some links with you today. Watching these fabulous party pictures from Paris I can't wait until Friday. And when I staring at these party pictures I can hardly believe it's reality...and I badly wanna blow bubbles with my best friends. Today Gucci Vintage Handbags on sale here and Kevyn Aucoin Beauty on sale here. And at least but not last check out this lovely Vintage Shop where's everything $50 and now my beloved readers can enjoy 15% off with coupon code: LADYLIKE. Happy Monday Darlings.

Love these campaign photos of Scarlett Johansson for Dolce & Gabbana, it's very Marylin Monroe inspired...just like red pumps and red lipsticks. What do you think? Do you heart Marylin's style?

Who wouldn't like to spend an hour or two in a gorgeous bathroom like this on a lazy Sunday? Just imagine as you're swinging around here gracefully...They say we are spending one third of our lifetime with sleeping and I often wonder: how much time are we spending in our bathrooms dear ladies?
Wishing you a blissful Sunday...
