{paris in the wintertime & hello}

hello again! . . . a quick note in a flurry of things this week, and it is beginning to look like things may be a little sporadic around here for the first little while . . . there are wonderful new projects to look forward to, and exciting news to share {can not wait to tell you!}, but despite it all, must confess, have become utterly encompassed in organizing and am currently tangled up in old photographs, long lost love letters, and beautiful bits of the past, and slowly, slowly, there is a place for everything and everything in its place . . .

à bientôt / see you soon
and hope you're having a stunningly lovely week so far,

{hearts may get broken, love endures}

"often while traveling with a camera we arrive just as the sun slips over the horizon of a moment, too late to expose film, only time enough to expose our hearts"

~minor white

hello! . . . a beautiful flutter of things always and especially lately, evident by last week's rather sporadic posts, but after a happily relaxing weekend away filled with softly sun-drenched mornings and melted, dreamy afternoons, welcoming the arrival of a new week and a new month with pure delight and many wonderfully exciting things to look forward to, alongside spring leaves and bright skies and can not wait to share them with you . . .

happy march! hope your week is off to a lovely start,
xo

{and then there was paris}

. . . recent thoughts about love and favourite things has led to paris, or at least, the memory of it . . .

and here, a few photographs from the summer, taken between walks along the narrow, cobblestone streets, shopping on the left bank, and fresh baguettes and warm cups of café au lait . . .

{and to p, my top five favourite memories:}
* serenade by a mariachi band on the métro
* champagne in the gardens of versailles
* dinner at the top of le centre de pompidou when the twinkling lights of la tour eiffel blazed their last for another night
* listening to you order éclairs in french from the local patisseries
* hand in hand along the seine
