LatteLisa Guest Post

PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket

Hello lovelies – I had to write lovelies; Dawn's classic greeting. I'm LatteLisa, an Icelandic blog friend of hers, living in Belgium, feeling honoured to write a guest post while she's soaking up the sun.

I don't know about you but I come here for my dose of feminine and often glamorous images. In my mind, Dawn is the glamorous girl with the big heart, a woman who knows how to live life to the fullest. She embraces colours and beautiful things and arranges them so neatly for us to enjoy. She willingly shares with us what she's up to ... or buying, wink.

I love her love for peonies so excluding pink ones was unthinkable. Some Chanel couture seemed fitting because our girl likes her accessories. An interior with a touch of gold couldn't go wrong and I simply had to top all that with a photo of model Chrystal Renn for Vogue Japan. Voilà! A classic Dawn post is born, or so I believe. I love those.

Enjoy your holiday girl and thanks for having me over.

LatteLisa,

Your summary of Dawn's blog rings so true to me. My daily dose of escapism, warmth in words and inspiration. One of the reasons I am loving blogging right now.
The images you have chosen are lush- they make me want to be on the streets taking snapshots (only if babysitters were at the ready of course!)

Love the decoration! Very beautiful.
