Romancing the Style

I have always been an ardent supporter of independent designers.
Whether they are local or not, I have been fascinated by the
creativity they possess when they are truly
passionate about their craft.
On my journey to develop a very personalized look for my upcoming
wedding attire, I stumbled upon a talented artisan pair in a shop
called Lo Boheme .
This wife-husband team creates fanciful accessories
that capture a unique bohemian vintage inspired look that I find
delightful. After just one look, I knew I had to order one of their
beautifully romantic pieces to complete my ensemble. These days, while
many trend followers are going for the rough edged, punk rock, Sid and
Nancy vibe, I opted to turn back the clock to a time period in which
feminine flair was alluring sex appeal. Each head piece design is
uniquely handcrafted with an Art Nouveau sensibility that breathes
life back to an everyday sophistication.

A Lucent Dream awaits…

I’m in dreamy heartfelt state of mind as my wedding in Greece awaits… the next few weeks I will be dedicating my writings to dreams, fantasy, and exploring a period in time of love, passion and romance.

Last week I had a date night with my beloved. In true lovers fashion I was whisked away to a magical castle full of magicians, beautiful imagery, fantastical costumes, songs that made your heart beat faster, and your childlike eyes come alive.

The Lucent Dossier experience steps into it’s own magical world, creating an ensemble balanced by movement that projected grace, strength and flexibility. A collection of wondrous passion brought on by love and inspired hope of a time period that I can only envision when I close my eyes. I was completely enchanted by sparkles that landscaped a candy like utopia of bustiers and tousled hair engaging in titillating acrobatic performances. As the music flowed and songs came alive with vibrancy, I drifted into a blissful atmosphere that delighted my soul. When silence dawned and the curtain drew, I could feel the audiences vibration in time with my own. They felt the experience too.

There were little pit stops before and after the experience… alluring you with the same magical potions and dreamlike state of mind throughout. We stopped for a past life reading at the Lucent “Post office”… As we sat down, an enchanting woman with a beautiful birds nest perched in her curly waves of  hair,  peered deeply and intently into our eyes and with a smile of certainty she pulled out two letters. Each personalized envelope, a “dossier", that was handed to us contained scribes of great insight. As we finished our postal business, in her sweet soften spoken tone, she offered us a spoonful of her magical handmade chocolate and sent us on our way…

I copied our notes for you to read and pictures for you to gaze upon if you should ever want to be enchanted by this dossier experience.
