AND WE HAVE BEEN SPENDING the past few days together, just the two of us, in last-minute Christmas shopping, in the romance of rain and late into the evening, as much time as possible before the busy-ness of family get-togethers, formal and festive dinners, and glittery holiday soirées. This year has been extraordinary in many ways [more on that in the days to come], but for now, we shall revel in our togetherness, in nights in front of the fire, dinner reservations and whatever else takes our fancy, and amidst the candlelight and fairy lights, one thing is for certain—there will be mistletoe . . .Wishing you the most beautiful Christmas, filled with family & friends, lingering dinners and good conversation, those to keep you warm and hold you close, champagne and magic, and most of all, mistletoe. —Roséline xo
{p.s.} In the interest of relaxation and romance, shall be taking the next few days off for merry-making and much-needed and very much-deserved time off . . . And so, until then, it is officially off-duty—à bientôt! / see you soon!, back here again just after Christmas, with many more beautiful things to share x
