Modern Winter Whites

J'ai eu envie de faire a proper post for quite a while now. In waiting to have the time to sit and write at length has left us with a long hiatus in posting.  Je suis glad to be back and missed you all. 

Due to the routine lately, it seems that mon sensibilities have become more minimalistic, or perhaps more streamlined. Perhaps more modern? This is surprising, considering how beautiful and practical layered looks can be. Lately, however, white shirts and simple jewelry have become de rigueur in mon New England winter uniform. It's all happened rather subconscious and might turn to layers of black and navy cashmere.

Also, je suis really really feeling this understated tungsten ring from Modern Design. It reflects both literally and figuratively, the look f winter whites. A few years ago, this would have been too simple and too masculine. I got their Polished Dome Tungsten Ring with Plated Rope Accent Inlay ring. The ring is beautiful and so soft! I loved it. However, the design is far more subtle than the pictures on the website suggest. For example, here is the picture from the site, suggesting that the rope design is very obvious an that the engraving of the design is rather deep.
