Here are my latest finds and news from fashion, style, film, photography and beautiful living.
• Some of you may know by now that I am a fan of Georgianna Lane’s photography. Her photos have the ability of transporting me to the scene and today I wanted to share some of her beautiful work from her last trip to Europe. The photos shown here were taken in Amsterdam and at the David Austin Rose Center in England (the photo with the roses).
• Christy Turlington was photographed by Arthur Elgort for the May edition of Tatler Magazine. There is a carefree, summer feeling in those two photos above that I simply love.
• Sarah of Haute Design takes us to a tour through the beautiful Acne Studios, Stockholm
• The Sartorialist: a photography exhibition
• How to: wear the white suit
• Wouldn’t it be wonderful to stay in a hotel like this when in Paris? Plaza Athénée: “truly majestic hospitality”
• Healthy living: mixed seed bread with thyme and rosemary
• On my nightstand: Empire of Dreams: The Epic Life of Cecil B. DeMille, by Scott Eyman
photos: 1,2,5,6-courtesy of Georgianna Lane / 3,4-by Arthur Elgort for Tatler UK, May 2012; styled by Anya Ziourova, fashion direction by Hannah Teare (see the rest of the editorial here)
I look forward to trawling through your notebook pages every week Ada! Currently swooning over the Acne Studios in Stockholm!
Love Christy Turlington, she’s fresh and unique and always beautiful!
I wish I could see that photographic exhibition in person… it looks great. He’s so cool Scott Schumann.
I’d love to wear a white suit whilst staying at the Plaza Athenee – awww if only! Maybe one day?
I’m going to try that bread- It looks delicious but I’m going to smother my slices with an eggplant dip or something… Oh, Mr De Mille – I’m ready for my close up now!
Great links Ada… as always!:)x
Beautiful pictures of Amsterdam! xoxo
Love all the pretty photos and links Ada. That white suit post has me re-thinking my wardrobe now!! I was going to get a pair of white skinnies and jacket and call it a day, but a real white suit looks amazing. Hope your week has been a good one so far!

I am back! Did you miss me?
We had a lovely long weekend here, the weather was rubbish, but apart from that everything was wonderful.
Thank you for the links – off to see that Parisian hotel and bread recipe.

Welcome back! Yes, I missed you.
I love Christy Turlington’s editorial, she looks incredible. Georgia Lane’s photography is exquisite too; the scenes of Europe during the summer time are breathtaking xx
I also adore Georgianna’s work. I think you probably introduced me come to think of it. Also, how gorgeous does Christy look? She gets more and more beautiful by the day. I actually run into her quite often here in the city and she’s even more beautiful in person if that’s possible.
Off to check out your notebook pages! I so look forward to them
xoxo
I definitely understand your passion for the photography of Giorgianna Lane! Veeeeery beautiful! Ful of light, happiness and positivity. Cindy Crawford is still one of the most beautiful women I’ve ever seen and one of my favorite models. I mean – she was one of the Top Models – but she didn’t change as much as Linda or Claudia or Cindy…. Maybe the best “excuse” starting Yoga?!….

Sorry – meant CHRISTY TURLINGTON – but wrote Cindy Crawford because I had to thought of her while writing…. Jeeeez…
Georgianna Lane’s photos are beautiful!
Arthur Elgort and Christy Turlington have collaborated many times through the years and the results are always wonderfully delightful!
Totally swooning over Plaza Athénée.
Amsterdam is one of my favourite cities … and Stockholm too! I hadn’t viewed Sarah’s post yet.
I wish I could pull off the white suit but it just doesn’t suit me at all, haha.
Thank you for linking to my recipe and enjoy your wonderful book!
Oh my goodness..I feel like my heart and eyes are singing when I look at these lovely photos!
Ah Georgianna! I love her blog and her images! Always a treat!

The ACNE Studios are absolutely stunning and thank you for flagging the white suit post: not an easy look to sport, but it is so alluring and elegant!
Hi Ada!
Thank you so much for this! I’m honored to have my images on your beautiful and stylish site. (I’m sorry I’m late – was on assignment shoots until last night.) Hope your new week is just fabulous!
