Fragments

Hello darlings!! I hope your week has gone by well. I've been a little rushed off my feet and tired this week, so sorry for not posting. But, a break is a good thing here and there. It's finally summer holidays here, so I won't have the school rush, now I will just have to keep my girls entertained each day. So, posts may become sporadic at times. This is just a mix of things from here and there...things that I enjoy and am quite fond of. Little pieces of me here and there. I hope you enjoy them and have a wonderful weekend!!

Love loves

{Gloria Swanson. (March 27, 1899 – April 4, 1983) was an American actress, singer and producer. She was one of the most prominent stars during the silent film era as both an actress and a fashion icon.} {I'm a huge silent film fan and she is one of my favourites, these ladies had style, brains, everything. Film stars at their best. I also wouldn't mind at all having this entire outfit}



{Tartan (please don't say plaid, that is something entirely different. The 'plaid' is actually the piece of fabric or blanket over the shoulder on a full kilt attire, the fabric is tartan) high heels I spotted while out at Loch Lomond, gorgeous.  This tartan resembles the Stewart Royal Tartan}



{MY Mr. Darcy - The Gorgeous Gavin who takes my pictures, writes poetry, dresses impeccably, cooks (yes, that's right, cooks - darn good too - LOVE him. Many have wondered who this 'Gorgeous Gavin' is, so here you are. His hair is actually blondish brown and he has blue eyes}


{Sekhmet statue from the Kelvingrove Museum. A Sekhmet  is a dangerous lady. Her name means 'powerful woman' (what's dangerous about that, I say!?!} She is the goddess of disease and it is said that her breath created the desert. She once tried to kill everyone is Egypt. This is the head and upper body of the goddess Sekhmet. 18th Dynasty. Rein of Amenhotep III, 1390-1352 BC}



{My dream car, that my enchanting Miss. Meadows and I are going to cruise around in one day wearing our vintage best in some marvelous and beautiful place - Paris will be on the cards for sure too. It's the 1938 Phantom Corsair (yes, I know about cars. I can change the tires (tyres for UK people) oil and whatever else needs doing. I am a smart cookie. My uncle builds and remodels old fashioned cars, so I learned to have a love for them from him. This is 6-seater cost approximately $24, 000 to build. The doors open with a touch of a button inside. Can fit four in the front and two in the back}



{Can I have this dress!?! It's marvelous and dreamy :))) Happiness}



{I leave you with this......

Have a marvelous weekend!!
xoxo}

  2. Don't apologise for not posting enough! We all have a life outside our blogs and that's a good thing :-)

    I love those tartan shoes, even if I couldn't walk in them, I could put them on display and just admire them... The car is great, I've never seen it before. My dream car is an old Citroen DS - one day I'll own one ;-)

    Have a lovely weekend and enjoy the summer hols, bisous xo

  5. I love the last photo of inspirational quotes Doll, in fact I love the whole post in general. I'm not gay or anything but even I find myself slightly crushing on Gavin haha, he's pretty handsome to say the very least.

    Thanks for the nice comment too Doll. I wasn't mad at Ms A but I just feel like making me feel horrible about being my mother's son was a step too far but I don't know, I suppose she was just trying to help like everybody else.

  6. Now I fully understand why you were able to leave your home country so easily - he is GORGEOUS!!! Congratulations! Does he have a brother?... ;)

    After reading your info on that car I now love it even more! And it's perfect you know how to change tires and stuff like that, because I can't...But you can teach me. I love to see a pretty, well dressed lady, who knows how to do things like that herself. If Sekhmet lived today I'm sure she would have known about stuff like that too! :) Looking forward to our little trip! xox

  26. I always feel that posting when you want and can is far better than stressing against a timeline. I agree with, and love that anonymous quote.

    You two make a gorgeous couple!

  27. Now we have a face to remember whenever we read about Mr. Darcy in your posts...
    Love your images,
    they are worth wanting.

  28. Ooh, so much to take in from this post! First we get to meet Mr. Darcy! I bet he must find it hard editing photos, with so many gorgeous ones to choose from.

    Love the Gloria Swanson photo - simply magical.

    I am also impressed with your car knowledge, that's something I definitely wish I had more know-how, but I do love cars too - just don't know enough about them!
    In the mean time I can have a giggle at Top Gear for now.

    Have a fantastic weekend Kizzy!

  34. I thought that was a Corsair the minute I laid eyes on it. My fave antique car--we used to have one in the Reno Auto Museum. Love the fact it was the first car ever to have air conditioning back in 1837-38. It was my dream to own one . . . I'm thinking instead of helping sponsor one. Great post!
