the whole thing, what is there to imagine? " ~Dries Van Noten

I've been gathering inspiring quotes lately & would love to have them pinned up in my office.
errr...perhaps I've been inspired by my mom to decorate the wall?
If you have any favorites, do share pretty please...

These details are so beautiful. Who would think of a watch at the collar?

That's a very sexy shoe! How's this for a quote: "Lenore Nevermore is one of the most versatile bloggers that I have ever known." I have a blog award waiting for you, dear friend, so please come over and pick it up at your earliest convenience.
My favorite right now is: "Dwell in possibility..." by Emily Dickinson. A close second is: "You must be the change you wish to see in the world." Ghandi, of course!
love ya, cutie!
p.s. in college, a guy I dated told me that he sat behind me in class, noticing my bra strap barely visible every now and then, and had crazy fantasies about me, ha ha. That was such a funny thing to hear at the time, as I thought guys only noticed the most obvious kinds of seduction. I wasn't even trying!
I'm rather inspired by your wonderful watch-as-a-collar, what a cool idea, especially as we're always rushing around these days. So how about: "Don’t count every hour in the day, make every hour in the day count."
Perfect quote for this set of photos. I am loving it.
one of my faves is from teddy roosevelt:
"do what you can, with what you have, where you are."
Love these photos. Wow. Incredible. Especially the last one.
Quotes? My personal motto is "Trying is succeeding. If you didn't succeed, you didn't try."

the whisper draws more real attention than a scream, and these images are testaments to that morsel of knowing. as to the quotes, my forever favorite will always be from Calvin Coolidge of all people. "Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent". mmmm.. omnipotence. tasty.
that watch collar thing is amazing....love.
Tracy, haha!
I'll try to use that tasty 'word' in a sentence today!
"It's more interesting to have just a picture of a small detail,
then you can dream all the rest around it." I love this part. Your profile pic also makes me dream some day we would be able to see Lenore. How exciting!
Gorgeous! I would love a decorative chalk board to write inspirational quotes on!
Mekkan,
Let's continue to imagine...
plus, I'm still too shy for now(blushed*)
Frau,
ooo...we've just painted a kitchen pantry door in chalkboard paint recently! Must take a pic of it & post/share one day!
That watch 'tie' for want of a better word is so awesome I'm going to tell my clients about it!
Very cool pics, darling!
As Ludwig Mies van der Rohe said: God is in the details.

Very lovely spread here - the watch neck piece is so quirky - I love it!
My favourite quote at the moment:
"Life is either a daring adventure or nothing" Helen Keller
love that watch collar!
That hoodie is just odd... Pretty sure I wouldn't be able to carry it off... Love all else tho!

"A day with out laughter is a day wasted"- Charlie Chaplin. :)

- Tolstoy
so pretty. that watch collar? amazing.
These are some brilliant details and accessories that add just the right amount of panache! Prize = postcard?
Isn't it all about dreaming? How boring will it be if everything were a certainty.
And heels, aren't they fascinating!
Your fave 'quotes' have inspired me to do blog posts~ Big Thanks!
This quote is like a revelation... I will try to focus more on details from now on, yeap!
Little details are always the best and that last image is stunning..Smitten with red lipstick:) Hugs
Ps: I’m hosting a beautiful dress GIVEAWAY today! Just in time for summer!
