LWB's Lifestyle

for the past 3 weeks we've been busy with family visits....and more to come
perfect time to splurge on fresh peonies for the table and bring out that wedding china and silver.......
it's truly special having family members visiting us in Milan and all under one roof! oh my!
we also got lucky with an extended visit from my older sister due to a little volcano erupting.
an extra week of laughs and giggles

sweet peas

Sweet peas have the most unbelievable fragrance! I soooo didn't know! where have I been?
Picked these delicate ones up after work today for my foyer. Each time I walk by I have stopped and take in the sweet sweet smell of this dainty little flower. So perfect for that little spring bride, don't you think? what's your favorite spring blossom?

um......possibly my most favorite dress......
okay, okay,...I know I say that every time I come across a ridiculously beautiful unique little number but this one seriously stands out.
The silhouette reminds me of the ethereal dress Liv Tyler wore in the film Stealing Beauty....
