Tropez


Last night we finished the last episode of season 2 Gentleman Jack. Sadly it had not been picked up for the 3rd and final season, but the 2 seasons that were made were fantastic. I just had to use a scene from the show on the television, since that is what we have been binging for the last week or so.

If you are not familiar with the show, it is a historical docu-drama about the relationship between Anne Lister and Ann Walker. The two were married in Britain’s first known lesbian wedding At the time in 1834 it was neither legal nor recognized by the Holy Trinity Church in York where the two took the sacrament together on a fine Easter Sunday morning, and considered the act their own version of taking vows to each other, entering into a marriage unto themselves.

The story of their relationship is one that was written by Anne Lister herself, as she was a prolific diarist, and her personal diaries total 26 volumes written between 1806 – 1840, and included over 5 million words, 1/6th of which were written in her own cypher code. The code was needed to disguise the quite graphically detailed tellings of her sexual encounters and love affairs with those of the fairer sex.

If you are interested in learning more about her diaries you can find out all you would love to know by visiting the West Yorkshire Archive Service Blog.

Villa Azur


Ah the thoughts of running away to some tropical paradise with the sun and the sand and not a care in the world at least until the logical side of the brain kicks in. Sand in all the wrong places, sunburn, insects, remembering its always the pretty tropical islands where they build the underground bunkers to hide the military experiment compounds. Maybe staying home with a nice netflix binge would be far better, k thanks bye !

Yemon Lellow


When we were about 12 or so, and our younger cousin about 3-ish, she used to pronounce Yellow as Lellow. We spent an entire weekend laser focused on teaching her how to pronounce it correctly, and it worked! We were so pleased with ourselves that we were able to teach her something, and could not wait to show off her new correct pronunciations to her mother when she picked her up. Our Aunt was utterly annoyed, because of course she thought Lellow was cute, and let’s face it, it really is !

Heart Seeds


We all use the phrase ‘the heart wants what it wants’ when talking about someone being in love with someone we feel it shouldn’t , but we never say ‘the liver wants what it wants’ when talking about alcoholism and cirrhosis.

As early as the 7th century BC, there was poetry that linked the heart with love. One of the earliest examples is “Love shook my heart, Like the wind on the mountain Troubling the oak-trees.” which was written by Greek poet Sappho, who lived on the island of Lesbos surrounded by female disciples whom she wrote passionate love poems to, tho only fragments of them still remain known.

Later Plato and Aristotle expanded on the dominant role of the chest in love, and granting the heart in supremacy in everything in the human body and psyche.

Dating back to 510-490 BC, the oldest-known image of what we now refer to as a heart shape was found on this coin, which was found in the ancient Roman city of Cyrene — near what is now Shahhat, Libya. The shape that we now call a heart, started out as the shape of a silphium seed.The plant is now extinct, but in its day the ancient Libyans became rich by exporting it for its contraceptive properties. Since it was such a major part of their economy, it makes sense they would stamp their coins with its imagery.

Dictatorshop is giving away it’s own form of love in the way of L$1000 credit for the price of L$1 to group members through Valentines Day. While your credit is good for any items in the store, there are several new Valentines themed pieces you may wish to add to your collection. The Vanity, Discipline Chair, Dresser, Large Shelf Unit, and Heel Throne all make their debut this season, to join several older pieces in the same theme.

Winter Wonderland


Today’s post truly made us realize just how much happier we are focusing only on home & decor posts, and not trying to juggle fashion posts as well. Setting up a scene feels so comfortable and natural, where our fashion posts always had an undercurrent of frustration and felt forced. We are not those kinds of girls who enjoy changing clothes and playing dress up, we are the girls that are perfectly happy wearing the same favorite jeans and tee while we stand or snuggle with Troy on our platforms for a week at a time. We do change clothes if we are going to be social and see the same people that already saw us in the outfit we have on, we do have some standards !

Keep Them Warm


For those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, things are getting colder, so it is a good time to remember that if you are cold, your animals are cold too. We are quite aware that not all animals are indoor pets, but that does not mean they should be left to fend for themselves without adequate shelter.

These Cocker Spaniels ( the sleepers ) and King Charles Spaniels ( the playful ones ) from Jian are absolutely thrilled to be inside the Hoffman Cottage from The Green Door.

Chez Moi has released the warm and cozy Belem Xmas Set for Cosmopolitan till December 10th. The ZAKER – Ginette Set is a Mainstore release for FARMERS MARKET.
