Valentine's is Love


Instead of hearts and flowers, here are some of my true loves.

Jet black 40's attire,  veiled hat, and gloves. 
Anything era 1940 makes my day.
 I  am enamored by this look, this era, this feeling. 
Ooooh the glamorous!

Dramatic Love.


Imagery. 
 These spools created in  a heart shape made my own heart flutter.
The imagination it took, and in only a  few moments they were gathered,
one snap of a camera et voila.

Photography (+) Creativity =  Artsy Love.



Bold, graphic fabric, upholstered chair in a high gloss finish.

Trend Love.



The word, love.  In an elegant simple and clean ring for
my pretty manicured nails.

Simple Healthy Love


Type.  In any form.  Here on the versatile burlap turned into pillow.  Especially if it evokes a smile, or makes me think twice.

Wickedly Wise Love.




Battered, vintage, much traveled luggage (+) destination (-) minus GPS.

Adventurous Love.



The color turquoise (+) secluded beach (+) Greece.
Land of my ancestors. 
I haven't been to this beach, but my friends have.

Longing Love.

With a big pinch of envy.



Holding hands (+) Friendship. 
With family, with my best friend, with the love of my life.

Helps me get through anything.

Essential Love.



An beautiful woman,
taffeta gown (+) tresses loosely gathered into a chignon.

Elegant feminine love.



Dance (+) 1940 Hollywood (+) hottie hoofer!
Here Gene Kelley, his toned sexy body,
 charming look, and his gifted ability to make it look oh so easy.

Vibrant Love.



The innocence and beauty of a sleeping infant.

Maternal love



Knitted grey sweater (new love) ( + ) steaming cup of coffee (old love).

Addictive love.



Wise, intricately woven books that make you want to
 dive into them and never come up for air. 
Too many favourites to mention. 
Words are for me the beating of my heart.

All Consuming Love



Finnigan, my little schnoodle.
Truly deeply infinitely.

Puppy love.



Boy  (+) Girl  (+) Baby  (+) Dog (+) books  (+) 1 home  (+)  travel (+) friendship
