Dreamy Thursday: Autumn Dreams

 

Autumn is here. Dreamy soft colors of brown, ecru, mustard yellow, pale peach and apricot shades are here to inspire you for this magical season of Autumn.

I love all the seasons. A little nip in the air, the crunch of yellow leaves underfoot and a misty day in Autumn always leaves me in a romantic state of mind. Being the star of your own life always in what you wear.

Here is to wearing whatever make you feel beautiful, authentic and free. Enjoy these early days of Autumn, my friends.

Dreamy Thursday: Late Summer Energy

 

I know people are clamoring for Autumn; but, I still want to revel in the late Summer Energy. Here is a little inspiration for all of you.

Dreamy Thursday : Shades of White and Pink

 

Happy May, my friends. Spring is finally blooming here with 70 degree weather!

What turns a woman fancy in Spring? Beauty and Light.

Romance is in the air. 

Romance is a feeling and a way of life.

Wishing you all a Dreamy Thursdsay.

Dreamy Thursday: Studies in Beauty

 

Happy Thursday, my friends. May is here and I am feeling the romantic vibe of Spring. Here are a few pictures that echo how I feel this season. Here is the beautiful Nicole Ari Parker.

 

This lovely model comes from Giambattista Valli Spring Collection two or three years back.

 The lovely model Jolie Jones from the 60's. Beauty is timeless, my friends.

And what is Spring without a beautiful bride to be? I have a fascination for

lavender wedding gowns. They are beautiful.

Wishing you all a magical and romantic May.

Dreamy Thursday : Romantic style

Happy Thursday, this is the second time I have tried to bring back my Dreamy Thursdays post.  I am doing my best to plan ahead, so I can schedule a bunch of them. I love Dreamy romantic clothes, music, films, ideas, etc. Especially with the world as it now, we need it more than ever. This is from the lovely Nadiife on you tube. I especially love seeing sistahs doing this.

It is so wonderful to see more women like me in costume dramas more. Of course, with the rise

of independent brands like Selkie and Dynasty George, there is a moment now for more romantic wear

for daily use.

Of course, Bridgerton had a big influence on reigniting this style. There is the lovely Adjoa Andoh as the inimitable Lady Danbury.

Look how dreamy she looks in white. I think my love of this style came from middle school and high school when prairie skirts were in with pretty white blouses that I loved to wear.

I finally watched Sanditon! It was good but the ending made me sad. Sorry for the spoiler, I am ready for season two. It was so exciting to see the first black character that Jane Austen wrote about on the screen. The lovely and strong Miss Georgiana Lambe played by Crystal Clarke.

Sanditon season 2 starts on Sunday. I am looking forward to seeing it! I hope Georgiana and Charlotte's love lives get better for them this season.

Representation does matter!  I am happy to see beautiful sistahs in dreamy styles in real life and on the screen as well.
