Moodboard Monday - Bows Are It

Hi there,

We're enjoying a beautiful sunny morning here today.  I should be able to get a couple of nice long dog walks in today.

But, before I do that, it's time for another moodboard!  

We know that the runway fashion shows often are indicators of upcoming trends in all areas and this year the hot trend was bows!

Bows have long been a favorite of Chanel.....in fact, since the very beginning and can be found on their clothes, jewellery and accessories....they even managed to add a couple to their very collectible Barbie couture.

And they have been the favorites of royalty and grand dames  forever in jewellery design.....as evidenced by the number of antique 'bow' jewels on the market.  

No matter where you see a bow, they add style and a bit of glam to whatever they adorn.

Enjoy and have a fabulous day!
