gatsby fever.

Carey Mulligan is beyond stunning in May's issue of Vogue.  Her much anticipated film which opens next month, features  3-D effects and a soundtrack produced by none other than Jay-Z.  To say I am excited for it all would be quite an understatement.  See the rest of the editorial (photographed by Mario Testino) here.

Happy Tuesday!

rustic kitchens.

My husband will be the first to tell you that I spend the least amount of time in our kitchen,

and yet one of the things I fantasize about in a home is a spacious, rustic kitchen.  These images feel so homey and serene to me.  Perhaps a kitchen like this would entice me to cook more?  ;)

More rustic kitchens here.

the dior exhibition.

 

Harrods is currently housing the Dior exhibition which celebrates British culture while showcasing Raf Simons' designs for the French fashion house.  If you are lucky enough to find yourself in London before April 14th, it's definitely something to check out.  Lovely.

mid-week prose.

"One day I'm going to write a travel guide containing only maps and addresses of hotels, and with the rest of the pages blank.  That way people will have to make their own itinerary, to discover for themselves restaurants, monuments and all the magnificent things that every city has, but which are never mentioned because "the history that we have been taught" does not include them under the heading Things You Must See."

--Paulo Coelho, The Zahir

*32 days until we are on a plane to Italy.  But who's counting?
