. . . while it may be too soon for late afternoons on ocean waves, writing from a beautiful hotel room in a charming city, near the close of an adventurously spontaneous weekend get-away of baguettes & brioche, velvet & valet parking, moody cafés & starlit walks, and most of all, stolen glances and a little romance . . .
à bientôt & hope you had a beautiful weekend,

What is not too love! Both feminine and chic. And a little bit of folklore. And the sun. The sun, people! All lovely! xx Monika

Well, here is still very cold and the Ocean (sea in my case) is a dream for now, if we talk about summer. But this does not stop me to plan and have nice weekends. In fact, this weekend I will go to the most beautiful city I have ever seen in my life: Venice!
Pls visit my blog next week and you’ll see some pics.
