English manors and old country cottages




To live a graceful and timeless old English lifestyle would be my ultimate dream come true.

Could anyone not be inspired by the rays of sunshine, stone manors and cobblestone pavements that quaint English countrysides have to offer? I can't think of a more perfect place to spend winter holidays... I imagine mornings in the country would involve a little bit of photography, a light brunch by the lake, some sketching and painting and then hours of freedom on a bicycle to explore, reflect, breathe... Nights would be spent cosying up to the fireplace with a rug, a good novel and a glass of vintage wine, completely disconnected from the busy modern world that we live in today. Nothing could be more perfect...











So, can you imagine the happiness I felt when I stumbled across these pictures today? Everything about this editorial is beautifully breathtaking, from the overall tone to the models and classy outfits. These are the shots that have renewed my love of rolling hills, lush green topiaries, tweed, wellies and vintage bicycles... all in a way that can't be described with words. My heart flutters for this splendid place and I so desperately wish I could be there.

Oh English countryside, why must you be so charming?

Hello friends!
How have your weekends been? I have just returned home from a 2-day trip to visit & catch up with my friend (who I haven't seen in the longest time) on her property. I am sunburnt all over but feeling so incredibly rejuvenated!! The last 2 days were wonderful and much-needed after spending all day at home working and feeling miserable because of this cold weather. The change felt so great -- to breathe in the freshest of fresh air, to wake up every morning to birds singing and then to lay in the meadows eating cupcakes as if we had no worries in the world. I so wasn't ready to come home!!

I am just about to go make myself some dinner to eat, but will be back soon with updates!
