OVER THE WEEKEND WE DECIDED TO GET INTO THE SPIRIT OF THE SEASON.
SO,
WE HEADED TO SOMERSET HOUSE,
NOT FOR THE ICE SKATING, NO.
WE WERE THERE FOR A MASTER CLASS:
HELLO, VALENTINO
THE EMPEROR AND HIS CLOTHES
WE WERE MADE A BIT BREATHLESS BY THE WHOLE DISPLAY
SO MUCH SO THAT MAYBE WE IGNORED THE NO PHOTO RULE
AND JUST COVERTLY SNAPPED A FEW
AS WE KNEW WE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO REMEMBER ALL THE BEAUTY
WANT TO EAT THIS SMOCKING DETAIL FOR BREAKFAST
HEMS AND CUFFS THAT RECALL RUFFLING SEAFORMS
IT WAS ALL VERY OVERWHELMING
AND WE REALISE WHAT A LUXURY TIME IS
DISREGARDING THE HOURS THAT PASS IN PURSUIT OF SOMETHING TRULY SUBLIME, WITH PAINSTAKING ATTENTION TO DETAIL.
TAKING TIME TO MAKE SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL BY HAND,
AND WE WISH WE HAD MORE OF IT.
(MORE TIME PLEASE)
PARTICULARLY AS WE HAVEN'T STARTED CHRISTMAS SHOPPING YET.
HAPPY MONDAY PARTY PEOPLE, ET BRAVO VALENTINO.
