darlings
a truly beauteous day……
we wrote 2000 (!!) words of The House On Church Row (no sneak peek today – it’s getting Rather involved and we’d just like to Finish it as opposed to confuse ourselves greatly).
then we met friends-for-lunch in Beverly Hills and afterwards drove to Santa Monica to the divine Rachel Ashwell Shabby Chic Couture to interview someone from their HQ for our column next week in Los Angeles, I’m Yours.
the bed linens there are just too too beautiful for words.
and there were fresh rose buds in tiny vases on the counter and Ms. Carla Bruni on the sound system.
we had achieved so much by 3pm today that we decided to Take The Rest Of The Day Off and go to the beach.
so we did.
isn’t that glorious?
you’re right! that does look familiar (just in case you’re outside the USA and naughty You Tube won’t let you see it….here’s another clue from Mr. seeing-stars.)
we peeked through foliage.
and admired the human-dolphins-in-slinky-black-wetsuits.
before slowly making our way home – with sandy toes and salt-kissed calves and extra freckles and tousled sun-bleached hair. 
*sighs*
a really lovely day.
in fact a splendid week so far and it’s only tuesday night.
did you have a delicious tuesday?
any sand in your toes?
Reminds me good summer times! :)
Yes! #bliss.
(And thanks ever so much for all the Likes. Most Kind)
i can smell the breeze!!!!!!!!!!!! <3
And soon you will in RL!
Well, I would have chose “From Here to Eternity” for the beach…hmm… :)
And I hope those are “your” espadrilles beacause they are absolutely adorable.
Feeling snarky today so will just add that I am not so sure at all that CB deserves the politeness of the Ms. in front of her name…
Bisous!
Snort.
Just Carla in this house then ;)
I wouldn’t have made it to the beach; I would have been unable to leave the linen.
Excellent point. But we sort of had to leave post interview ;)
Nothing to do with linen but I am remembering two writers that you may know: Josephine Tey; Ngaio Marsh. The latter is a home girl from my town.
So lovely! I miss the option of just popping down the beach, although I rarely did when I lived in Oz. Brighton for me just isn’t the same for me unfortunately…
