I don't want to ruin the magic of this Minna Kulmala photoshoot with mere words... A few more pictures, however, you can find at Portrait of a Woman ♥. ~*♥*~

I've collected some personal favorites of mine here for you... A sweeeeet bohemian piece of ankle jewellery. I just love this; will try to find someone to make one for me...

20's inspired dress, sultry 'n sweet A beautiful piece of vintage jewellery...Ah.

Pearls, carried with attitude... Like so.

MmmmmMmmm... a bandanna for flowy wavy summer hair... My inspiration for today came from these little touches, found from here & there and everywhere... Hope they bring a little dance into yours steps this Monday...♥ ~*♥*~

Some days deserve a little bit of lace on them, light as a touch of butterfly. Here goes ladies (gentlemen?). Let yourselves be swept away for a little moment. The dress below - not to mention the divine stockings! -  are by the lovely Estonian designer Kristina Viirpalu. She actually hosts a fashion show and event in Tallinn next month, and LadyBohemia has been invited! I'm  excited already as I admire Kristina Design  so much. What a treat her show will be for me.... I'll keep you posted on that one, my dear readers.

One of my most beloved pieces is this coffer, from 19th century Provence. When I first saw this handmade, hand painted beauty in the dusty corner of an antique shop, I knew she belonged with me. And home she came immediately, even though I had to negotiate, twist & turn and practically beg to come up with the money for it. And again, we ate oatmeal for a month... But every time I look at it, I feel the sun of Provence. ~*♥*~

So. It's rainy and slushy outside today... Don't let it get to you, as you're about to get a dose of warmth and coziness, almost as magnificent as a fireplace readily lit up when you come home drained from work... Or a bath in candlelight. In the form of knitwear, I mean. Chunky, romantic, crochet... You CAN look lovely whilst keeping yourself warm all the way to your toes. Here are some photos I've collected for my rainy day inspiration.

I've got a dress very much like this by Kristiina Viirpalu but those little black gloves would be an icing on the cake.... Ok, also the Vuitton suitcase adds a certain something. Thanks Unjung Jun for the idea-I'll definitely go for the gloves at least."][/caption] [caption id="attachment_7770" align="aligncenter" width="493" caption="This makes me think of my Hanski, who is responsible for everything practical existing in our household. She has personally knitted all woollen socks & gloves my kids & I possess, and some quilts in addition. So. Even though she currently lives in Holland, she still keeps us all warm. I'm so lucky to have her."][/caption] Feeling a little warmer already? Rainy day kisses to all my lovely readers, from LadyBohemia ~*♥*~
