Hello lovelies! We have some very exciting news to share with you today. Skylark Manor had the privilege of being featured in the August 2011 issue of TeenVogue magazine. The gorgeous, and amazingly talented country singer, Taylor Swift, is beautifully accessorized with a Skylark Manor antique bumble bee brooch! A one of a kind piece, that added a bit of whimsy, to her very ladylike, and glamorous movie star look.
Taylor's entire feature article is expertly styled, and shot by none other than the fabulous fashion photographer, Daniel Jackson. She looks absolutely stunning in her retro ensembles, that evoke breezy romantic days, with a touch of nostalgia mixed in.
Pick up a copy at your favorite shop, or metro station fast, before this issue is sold out. It is filled with every on-trend fashion tip, that the up-and-coming fashionistas want to know about first. Ciao! -Al

An Artist Escape, With Dale Chihuly
Dale Chihuly Photo by Ken Lambert/Seattle Times
The spectacular artistry of the American glass sculptor Dale Chihuly, can be best described as otherworldly, and uniquely his own. His creations burst forth with color, excitement and an energy that cannot be contained. The organic nature of his forms, are very free flowing, almost as if they were born from a fantastical wand, that was flicked through the air.

Chihuly's works have found their way into various museum installations, and permanent collections around the globe. Several hotels, and public gardens display these pieces as well. Check out this interesting interview with the artist himself.
As you can see, Chihuly's work is not at all shy, or pretentious. His gorgeous bowls, chandeliers, and undulating objects are simply sublime. Do try to see some of these spectacular exhibitions in person, to experience the glorious feast of color and light. We guarantee, you won't be disappointed. Ciao! Al
