A flower by any other name...

When I first saw these floral headbands from Louis Vuitton I had two thoughts...

1) I could make that!
2) Do I want to make that?

I'm still caught in the middle on this...part of me says "how romantic and girly and belle-dame-sans-merci"-ish and the other part says "I'll look like a deranged bag lady".

Which way will I fall? Only time will tell.


III.

I see a lily on thy brow
With anguish moist and fever dew,
And on thy cheeks a fading rose
Fast withereth too.

IV.

I met a lady in the meads,
Full beautiful—a faery’s child,
Her hair was long, her foot was light,
And her eyes were wild.

V.

I made a garland for her head,
And bracelets too, and fragrant zone;
She look’d at me as she did love,
And made sweet moan.

John Keats

    Not sure about the headbands, but I love the makeup there the silver/gray eyeliner type thing. Will most likely try that.
    Oh, and I post about what you decided for the headbands.

    Hey
    Just come across your blog. Very much like the way you wrap stylish things in even more stylish words. You truly seem to live according to my credo:
    whatever you do - do it in style because the world needs it...:-))))
