Mad about roses - a list by hanahula

Options for This Page

About this list:

My most memorable rose was not red, nor was it a gesture of romance. It was the cream rose, the Delta Gamma rose specifically, I received upon my initiation into my sorority as a symbol of lifelong sisterhood. Yes, I am a romantic. And I was well before I even understood what a sorority was. Perhaps we are having a collective moment of nostalgia or a greater sense of symbolism, but roses are busting out all over. Bring them on !

Qualifications:

You will rarely find me without my rose-colored glasses on.

Athleta: Women's turquoise rose necklace by Allison Dayton

First to recommend

Description

A rose almost as striking because of what it isn't (i.e. red) as because of what it is: a miniature bloom crafted by hand, strung along a length of tiny Thai beads.

Dover Street Market E-SHOP: Red Series 2 Candle by Comme des Garcons

First to recommend

Description

Although this candle is available in five different incarnations (including the "Sequoia," as shown), my flowery favorite is "Rose." Which now makes me wonder: has Comme des Garcons grown developed their own rose variety to concoct this scent ? Something to explore in greater depth.

shopbop: Women's Adela Antique Roses Top by Velvet

First to recommend

Description

A modern, slightly abstract version of a rose print flourishes across this swingy silk top. Try it with a pencil skirt for sophistication; keep it boho with jeans and ankle boots.

Hemline: Women's Reservations for Two Pump by Seychelles

First to recommend

Description

The silky taupe color makes this rose-decked shoe an understated, but definitively, romantic shoe. The substantial heel creates a sexy profile, while enabling you to keep at least your feet (if not your head) on solid ground.
