Picspam… White

“Sorrow had blanched the Queen’s once beautiful hair; but her features and air still commanded the admiration of all who beheld her; her cheeks, pale and emaciated, were occasionally tinged with a vivid colour at the mention of those she had lost. When led out to execution, she was dressed in white; she had cut off her hair with her own hands. Placed in a tumbrel, with her arms tied behind her, she was taken by a circuitous route to the Place de la Revolution, and she ascended the scaffold with a firm and dignified step, as if she had been about to take her place on a throne by the side of her husband.”

~ Jean Charles Dominique de Lacretelle on Marie Antoinette

I’m very drawn to white. It’s classic, it’s fresh, it’s timeless, it’s perfection.

Some people say white’s no color, and I guess that might be true, but still, it’s my favourite colour. It fits with everything, like you said, it’s classic, it’s fresh and it’s timeless. White is perfection, indeed! My room would be nowhere if white didn’t exist! XD

I say, down with these people! White is the best colour! ;D (Clearly, we are more brain-twins than we thought.)

Wow, this photos are truly gorgeous. I can’t even pick one because they really are all so beautiful <3
By the way, I'm pretty sure the photo of the cherries was taken by one of my contacts on Flickr, I can give you the link if you want :)

That would be wonderful if you could send me the link for the cherry picture! Thanks! All to often I just find things through other people and sometimes they don’t link to the original picture. :(

These are insanely beautiful, Krissy! I personally cannot deal with bright colours so white is one of my favourite. It just gives you comfort. :)

I love how white is used in minimalistic-style stuff, it really adds a lot without adding much at all!
