BORN ON THE BAYOU

I have a little dream one day to live on the bayou. 

 I suppose I would be that crazy old bat living in the broken down 

plantation home.

People on the mainland would talk about "Poor Lonely Miss Henke

lived and died with her 20 cats".

Children would most likely start an urban legend about how

I was a witch or something. 

*sigh*

In reality that is terribly invalid. 

I always feel the need to fix anything that ages and

I am highly allergic to cats. 

I simply love the style of historic home and 

I am fascinated with the deep south. 

I have always believed that bringing indoor furniture to the outdoors

is a divine trend. 

And that every house in the south (Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama..)

should indeed have a greenhouse. 

Oh and of course anything vintage :)

All in all, I don't want to be cooped up in some creepy old mansion. 

I would like to live in "that grand southern manor" that 

everyone admires. Maybe I will call it after the family name...

Perhaps the "Van Buren or Winchester Manor"

;)

(HAUNT)INGLY BEAUTIFUL

Well due to the fact that it is the best

month ever, I felt like posting about what could

be known as old "creepy" decor and fashion.

I was recently inspired by the show "American Horror Story" 

Everything about that show is creepy and disturbing yet 

beautiful. 

Many of these images remind me of my aunt and uncle's home 

It's basically this big house filled with old paintings, 

vintage portraits, ancient artifacts and chipped mirrors. 

To me, the unsaturated photographs represent a 

tainted love. 

Getting ready for halloween!

More spooky fashionable posts to come :)

SIMPLE LITTLE LOFT

The simple little are those that make me smile.

Though I love extravagant interiors and fashion 

sometimes I just love looking at quiet, simple,

white style. 

Simple concept for a simple day.

BLACK AND WHITE ALL OVER

Black and White are counter colors.

They are the only two colors that can hide what's ugly and

make everything beautiful.

They are both appealing to the eye, 

especially when they are together.

Black and White was what they had in the past.

Black and White is classic.

GRAY AND WHITE WEDDING

I love how different a gray and white wedding is from a typical 

bright colored wedding! Not that I don't love a bright wedding, but

there is something about a gray wedding that is so beautiful.

INSPIRATION: WIMBLEDON

Miu MIu Caped Dress, Theory White Cardigan

I believe Wimbledon has to be my favorite Grand Slam.

I absolutely love the classiness and code of ethics that they have. 

All the players have to white, which is excellent.

Not to mention everything is so organized and clean. 

One year I hope to make it out to this tournament with my grandparents!

THE SIMPLICITY OF WHITE

Calvin Klein Collection

Simplicity...
Isn't often easy to achieve,
When teased by variety.
And those assortments of life.

Yet when simplicity arrives,
As a necessity...
One is able to breathe deeply,
With a sense of peace and clarity.
