{décor inspiration: tray chic}

. . . at this moment, there are perfume bottles scattered prettily about everywhere -- on the dresser, on the vanity, even on the desk, amongst pretty notepaper and fountain pens . . . and have always loved the way a simple tray, whether square or circular, gold or silver, can transform a few pretty bottles into a beautiful display; add venetian glass and deep emerald & onyx-hued marble, a bouquet of delicate peonies, and what could be lovelier?

{p.s.} another way to display perfume collections

{hope you've had a beautiful weekend + links}

. . . last week was a wildly scattered & intensely busy collection of hours and days, but the weekend was decidedly more laid-back -- just as summer should be, and a most welcomed change indeed . . . there were films and popcorn and curling close, long walks and dinners outdoors and sun-soaked rooftops, cakes and cupcakes and billowy summer dresses, and most of all leafy, sun-dappled gardens and time for all the plans dancing about in daydreams . . .

hope you've had a summery, romantic weekend & that it was beautiful where you are, roséline xo
