I am perusing the Seasonal Tome,
know as the Vogue September  edition,
And, I am having difficulty wrapping my head around the fact, as I have for awhile now,
that Christian Lacroix is no longer designing.
To live in a world, where there exists Pairs, and Haute Couture, and still, Luxury,
but not Lacroix...befuddles my mind.

HE DESERVES A LARGER ARENA.

Craving Green.....

I crave a secret garden.....

where I might luxuriate in nature's lush beauty,

and delight in lollipop shaped trees.

I'd like to climb this ladder

and contemplate things from it's perch.

stroll here...

meander there...

wear this arbor on my head,

and dream.
