Been so long! I have a new blog

http://lapetal.wordpress.com/

My darlings, still a work in progress.. but a beginning!

You'll never find a peace of mind till you listen to your heart;

Outside the air is bitter and the wind howls, leaves fall to the grounds as the branches achingly move in the wind. The last leaf hangs on to the bare tree outside and the suns last light pours through the room. Vivid, pink flowers sleep in a vase, the soft scent lingers in the air mixing with perfume and the delicate petals wave in the breeze. As crisp evening begins and the moon fills the inky sky, a new page in my journey is being written.

My life is one dedicated to beauty, that is what inspires me. A real, true beauty in this fake commericialised world. Whether that be a delicate rose petal, the feminine smell of a perfume or the way my darlings eyes glisten. The inspiration of beauty is everywhere. Let your life embody all that inspires you and all that you love, that is my tip for living a truly beautiful life..

When one searches for beauty in all areas of life a lady will inevatibly go on the guest of finding that signature perfume, that perfect lipstick shade (mine being a rose taffy) and of course the perfect pair of shoes, or to be more prescise my quest for the moment, what makes the perfect ballet flats.

As much as I do adore heels, sometimes nothing can be more chic, more feminine than sliding your foot into a pair of dainty ballet flats, depending on your style they can also be quietly seductive.

Pretty Ballerinas are, to put it simply, the perfect pair of ballet flats. With the feminine details, the softness of the leather, they are classic with a twist. My desire is set on the Nude Pink Leather Katesand the Soft Pink Leather Rosarios. Exquisitley feminine and dainty.

Chantal Thomass lingerie is alluring and feminine. The laduree macaron in the Lingerie world, charming and oh so elegant.

Remember mon cheri's to find oneself, one must first loose oneself.

Until next time my darlings...

Rose Petal Dreams;

Outisde the moonlit sky is dark and not a single star shines, there are no clouds. It is but a vast canvas of  inky silk. The soft sound of music floats through the room as perfume fills the air, white wild flowers stand silently on the table as the candles flame dances. As I sip my mocha, the beautiful smell lingers around me.. Probably not the best time for a mocha, but what can one say? Life is too short to worry about sleepless nights.

I love....

Cherry Tea

Melted chocolate

Teacups

Strawberries in Rose water

As the soft scent of perfume flutters beside me as a dragonfly does a pond. Perfume can be a snapshot in time, it can carry a memory of a time long ago and can be the person you cherish. I constantly search for new scents that bring emotion, that has a life of its own. When searching for a new signature scent for yourself always remember the occasion, a light day time scent and a dramatic one for evening.. Although rules are there to be broken mon cheri's! Before choosing look around, the one to buy is the one you always come back to, the one that draws you in. 

For me nothing goes past Miss Dior Cherie or jean paul gaultier classique, although one of my dearest perfumes I adore is a Benefit Gina Perfume one that has oriental-woody notes such as: pink pepper, bergamot, tangerine, peony, raspberry, lily, Tonka, vanilla and patchouli. Feminine, Fragile yet seductive and sensual... One can also not go past Apres l'Ondee by Guerlain and Coco Mademoiselle another of my favourites.

As I sit here inspirations fill my mind, life is beautiful, there is beauty everywhere and inspiration under every petal.

I do believe there is a certain amount of femininity and a class and elegance that is not shown through clothing but through a lady and the way she acts being lost in today's society. Oui, thank goodness for the rights we have.. We now have choice. Yet I do feel that many modern woman take this too far, want to dominate, do everything a man can do, even through fashion, wanting to 'stand out', be centre of attention, to be loud... Woman are now agressive. As Marilyn Monroe once said "I don't mind living in a man's world, as long as I can be a woman in it."

I am not encouraging woman to sit back and simply look pretty, one must not confuse femininity with weakness, there is an incredible power in true femininity.

Until Next time My darlings...

Darling please, just make it go away;

Outside the sky is clear yet no stars shine and the moon seems so far away tonight.. Not a sound stirs the still night, I am well beyond sleep. Time seems to have escaped my reality.

I told myself I wasn't going to write when I was feeling like this, yet it wouldn't be a very honest journal, would it? Like a beautiful rose love has its thorns. Life has its road blocks. Sometimes it all seems to much, I just wish it would all go away, the pain, the memories. One must keep going though.

I often stay up late, thinking and ironically dreaming. I do know in my heart all will be well and I will soon be in your arms. These are hard times for us both, but my darling, don't give up. I believe in you. You can push me away.. i'll still be here waiting. 

There are times in ones life when many things seem to happen at once, a cluster of negative emotions, a cluster of negative happenings. Yet whilst these times are hard remember, everything that once made life beautiful to you; the soft pink of a rose, the way the sun shines through the trees... It is all still there.

Until next time my darlings...

I hold my head up to the sky;

 Asoft breeze blows through my open balcony doors, the trees outside dance in autumns breath. Rustling leaves and the faint murmur of the city can be heard, life is full of strange happenings and unexpected events that speed our train to new stops, new lessons and new experiences. Sometimes though the train seems to be going so fast that one begins to wonder, will it crash?

My room is a utter disaster at the moment, a room that is full of my collected memories, my journeys and my hopes and dreams. It represents me and the life I have lived, all put together in one room. A room that seems to echo the mess of my current state of mind. Yet it is calm at the same time as the dawn sunrise casts its warm shadows through the curtains. My inner turmoil is being sorted through one peice at a time. One ache and one hurt at a time.

Inspiration can be found everywhere; the way nature lives in beautiful harmony, the way soft sunlight hits my darlings eyes, the way a hot summer's afternoon lying under a willow tree can perfectly show your heart what it wants, you just have to lift your head

Yesterday, I left school, I 'dropped out' as they put it. Something that is many times considered to be only for the hopeless, the ones with no goals or ambition.What if I said though that I know there is more to life and I know I am destined for other things and I know everything will be alright? I left a world that lacked inspiration, but no, i'm not dreamer with her heads in the cloud. I want to live a real life, full of real beauty and real experiences. In a real life there are challenges, growth and sometimes pain, as long as it is real, then I live a beautiful life full of people I love and a life that is full of inspiration.

No matter what life throws at you, remember you can do it. Nothing comes into our life that we cannot over come..

Until next time my darlings...

Somewhere between the pond and the forest;

Trees stood bare as their leaves fell and the sky filled with clouds cried softly. The sound of birds singing to their loves could be heard over the soft falling rain and the air was bitterly cold. The air smelt of freshness, of new beginnings.

Whilst this is not the first time I write to you, maybe a quick introduction is needed as time passes to quickly and the mind can forget.
