I've been meaning to write a blog post for days. I have so many ideas for blogs at the moment (covering a variety of subjects; some personal and some work-related) but seemingly no time to write them! So tonight, instead of writing something lengthy, I wanted to share this photo with you instead. It was taken years ago but I only saw it for the first time the other week. It's a photo of my boyfriend...
Leon (c.1992)
He was lovely then, and he's lovely now.
I didn't know him then because I was just a teenager in Suffolk, England, and as you can see he was a gorgeous American man in Paris. But many years later we met and fell in love. In this photo he's about the same age as I am now. If I'd met him then I know I would have fallen in love with him, but sometimes life makes you wait for these things.
That's all I really wanted to say.

P.S. Those glasses are something else, aren't they?! I think they may almost be in fashion again!
[Oh, and by the way, you should really check out both the shop and my website. I've added a ton of new things to both of them this week. Enjoy!]




He's a cutie! and those glasses are amazing.

Well I am feeling very flattered and a bit shy. :) Thank you, my Darling, for your lovely thoughts!
I really don't think about age. I feel generally the same now as I did then (just busier now!) and I feel that you have always been as lovely as you are today! But certainly, I would have fallen in love with you at any age! :)
Ha ha!! I miss those glasses! See you soon !!
