Peaceful, earthy tones interiors
First of all , I want you to know, dear readers and blogfriends, that I am so busy this week, that I really don’t have so much time to blog! So to my blogger colleagues, I would say : ”Sorry that I didn’t comment your posts these days, but I will be back within a few days to read your blogposts” and to all my readers who emailed me : ”Sorry I didn’t emailed back to you yet, but I will within a few days.”!
I am working on a project and today I was going through my files, searching for inspirational images !
I thought it could be nice sharing some of the images which inspired me for some reason.
The images are all of very peaceful interiors and you will notice earthy and sandy tones.
I hope you will be inspired as much as I am!

Weekend announcements
Susan from the blog LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE launched on her blog a few days ago, a serie called “Her Personal Space…At Home With…”. She asked some bloggerfriends -even me-, to participate and to send her some pictures of a room or a space at home they love to retreat, to take a break.
Past weekend she posted about the favorite spots of Vicky at Room Service~Decorating 101 and about my favorite ones.
If you are interested in discovering my favorite spots to retreat, you should visit Susan’s post HERE.

And a totally different subject I want to bring up today is about young piano players in my family!
Yes my family counts a lot of piano players. My mother plays the piano, my father did, my brother does, my uncle does,…
And now I want you to meet the youngest two piano players of our family:
My nephew Alex, who is the son of my brother and my youngest nephew Justin, who is my sister’s son.
Both of them have to do their examination within a couple of days! By posting a picture and a video of them on my blog I would encourage them and wishing these boys good luck with the examination!

Alex, who is 14 years old plays the piano for about 4 years now.
Unfortunately I have no video clip of Alex playing the piano.
If you love piano music , then you will enjoy this video of Justin, our youngest piano player in the family!
Justin who is 11 years old plays the piano for 2 years now.
Good luck boys!
And to all of you a wonderful weekend!

Už dlouho jsem se chystala na háčkovaný pytlíček, ale až nyní jsem objevila pěkný vzor, s plastickými sloupky.

173, Boulevard St.Germain, Paris
Yes, this is the address of the new flagship store of Ralp Lauren in Paris!
What a gorgeous building, isn’t it!
The building has been restored over the past four years and includes six floors of retail space, including a restaurant in the old stable’s called RALPH’S which will strive to serve the best burgers and fries in the city!!!
Sharing pictures of that restaurant is what I wanted to do today! I love the exterior of the building as well as the interior of the restaurant!
Let’s have a look…
The entrance.
The courtyard of the ‘hôtel particulier’.
What do you think? Can you imagine sitting here to have dinner?
I love the way of mixing the seats, upholstered in the typical RL fabric, with the wrought iron French chairs.
Fabulous door!
And on below some pictures of the interior of the restaurant in the RL spirit of course.
This post wouldn’t be complete if I hadn’t posted some images of the store!

For those who love to see the making of the new Ralph Lauren flagship store in Paris, you can watch this video.
Well my friends, when we ever join in Paris, we could meet at RALPH’S, boulevard St. Germain,
sitting in these cozy seats, while talking and…
…tasting this chilled sweet pea soup with minted crème fraîche.
Or…
…enjoying this ‘frozen margarita’, the favorite cocktail of Mr Ralph Lauren.
Cheers!
See you in Paris !!!
