Wie immer wunderschön und unglaublich edel. Ganz schlicht mit Tasche und Tuch als Hingucker. Möchten wir nicht alle so gestylt die Tulpen vom Markt holen ... xoS
ReplyDeleteLiebe Sanne, der Frühlingszauber hielt nicht lange an, seit Anfang der Woche haben wir Dauerregen. Die nächsten Tulpen werden mit dem Schirm abgeholt!
DeleteWelcome back MaiTai! Your holiday looked wonderful and I love the photos of the gorgeous blue skies and the crisp white snow.
ReplyDeleteI love the colours of the tulips and how you have used them to inspire your outfit. Such an elegant and cosy look!
Have a lovely week,
Melusine x
Thank you for the lovely welcome back, my dear Melusine! The flowers are such a fabulous match to the red parts of the LdT.. I like to think the colorist had a bunch of tulips on the desk ;-)
Deleteall the best and enjoy spring 2013 - you look beautiful and charming as always. Thank you for the tips on capsule pieces (it was a few posts ago) I always look forward to your posts as they inspire me to develop a more elegant look myself, I think you are an one woman campaign to spread good taste - globally. ;-)
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for the lovely comment and kind good wishes, dear sophié. Enjoy a beautiful and happy spring 2013 too!
DeleteWhat a great and beautiful post, dearest MaiTai! You always combine text and pictures in perfect harmony:)
ReplyDeleteI love your Picotin and the way it matches Ms Brick/Saumon. So bright and warm :)
Ms Gris/Prune is very pretty and very versatile too<3
Your tulips and orchid indicate the beginning of Spring which I think we all look forward to. Sending you warm and cosy hugs, Manuela <3
Thank you for the warm welcome to Ms G/P and B/S, my dear Manuela! In the meantime, winter seems to have shushed spring away again.. we've had non stop rain for the last few days. Hope there is spring sunshine up North! Have a wonderful rest of the week <3
DeleteLuff the tulips the scarf and orange bag and the orchid.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely week x

As your pictures prove, dear Gina :-)
DeleteLove how all of the colors come together so beautifully, and how you've incorporated the chair into your shots, showing the entire outfit. Also, congratulation on the addition of two new necklaces to your collection, both of which are gorgeous colors, especially the gris prune. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteWarm orange hugs, dear.
CS
I should have thought of the chair ages ago, it makes it so much easier to incorporate the shoes into the shot well! Have a wonderful remaining week, my dear CS <3
DeleteI cannot express how much I look forward to your lovely posts.
ReplyDeleteI broke my patella last Saturday, and I'll be in this cumbersome plaster cast for 6 wks. I was scheduled to be in Paris in mid-March, but, C'est la vie, I'm stuck here. You, dear lady, bring a bit of France right to me....I can almost smell the fragrant air in Provençe.
I am downright heartsick for France!
Thank you for une petit rayon de soleil , and please know that I'm awaiting the return of the Indigo fur collars!
Bonne journée !
Barbara A
Oh Barbara, I am so sorry to hear about the knee cap! Hope you are in no pain, and that you'll recover as speedily as possible. How very disappointing to miss your Paris trip because of it, blowing some Provençe air and bisous over to you. Will keep you posted re the Indigo fur. Bonne courage!
DeleteAh, your Picotin is a real eye catcher, love the colour and the size! And your new waterfall necklace is the perfect match, dear MaiTai :-)
ReplyDeleteWhich size is this Picotin?
Thank you, dear Happy. The Picotin it's a MM (moyen model).
DeleteSmashing as always and just in time for spring with the perfect happy touch of colour! :D sending hugs, Macs
ReplyDeleteThank you, my dear sweet Macs... hugs right back!
DeleteDearest MaiTai,
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely spring post framed by beautiful flowers - your exquisite orchid is so very perfect. How much I love your happy and cheerful outfits - just can't stop smiling. Also very much appreciate the seated shot - adore seeing the whole picture. Big congratulations on your gorgeous new Waterfall members, truly fabulous additions to the most elegant Collection! Hope you're having a wonderful week. Much love to you with big spring hugs xxx
PS Became LdT twins with you over Christmas :-)
How wonderful to be LdT twins with you, my dearest Scarf Enthusiast, blowing sibling kisses to you <3 The credit for the cheerful outfit goes to the LdT, it always seems to have that effect... I call it my 'happy scarf! Hope you'll have the happiest moments with yours xx
DeleteLiebe Mai Tai,
ReplyDeletewie gewohnt wundervolle Fotos, dein Stil ist einfach super klasse:-)
Darf ich fragen, welche Größe deine Picotin hat? Ich selbst bin 1,70m groß und spiele mit dem Gedanken, mir auch eine solche zu gönnen...hast du eine gute Idee hinsichtlich der Farbe?
Ich bevorzuge Neutrals, besitze u.a.auch ein "Laboratoire", étoupe-grundig..
Liebe Grüße aus dem Rheinland,
Barbara
Liebe Barbara, vielen Dank für die netten Komplimente :-) Alle meine Picotins sind in der MM Grössse. Bezüglich der Farbe, wie wäre es mit Etoupe? Wunderbar vielseitig, im Winter wie im Sommer http://www.maitaispicturebook.com/2008/04/picotin-mm-clemence-in-etoupe.html Liebe Grüsse, MT
DeleteLiebe MaiTai,
ReplyDeletedanke für die schnelle Antwort!
Besitze die Victoria in Etoupe und habe z.B. an Café, Chocolat oder als Farbtupfer sogar an einen Rot-ton gedacht? Daher meine Frage an dieser Stelle:-)
Deine Ratschläge sind most welcome and appreciated!
Lieben Dank im voraus und liebe Grüße, Barbara
Liebe Barbara, wenn Etoupe schon abgedeckt ist, dann würde ich auch einen Farbtupfer für die Picotin nehmen. Rot ist immer schön... ich liebe meine Rubis und Sanguine, aber Rouge H ist auch eine wunderschöne Farbe, klassisch und edel. Zu Jeans ist Indigo einfach perfect! Café und Chocolat sind beide schön, und vor allem vielseitig und langlebig. Wer die Wahl hat, hat die Qual...viel Spass beim aussuchen und entscheiden! :-)
