SUBLIME ?



Sublime…I have often wondered if people even know the meaning of words like Sublime, Glamorous, and especially Elegant…in my humble opinion Elegant is way over used. Much of what I see described as elegant is actually glamorous. Elegant means: refined, graceful, dignified in manner taste or appearance. Glamorous on the other hand is almost the opposite meaning: over the top mysterious…Think Grace Kelley elegant and Elizabeth Taylor glamorous , both Sublime in  individual greatness and certainly there beauty…I often read articles in Shelter magazines where rooms and or houses are referred to as Elegant I look at it and think what are they talking about. I think glamour is much easier to achieve than elegance. Kate Middleton achieved, it or her handlers did when choosing the dresses for the latest Royal Wedding. I may have done one or two jobs in my entire career that I would even dare consider Elegant. One comes to mind a house that was made into miniature mansion for a woman who cared about the smallest details. It was great fun to work together to transform this house and it took a great deal of time and care…of course there is one aspect of the house we will never agree upon, so I will just leave it there…..
