"This is the violet hour, the hour of hush and wonder, when the affectations glow and valor is reborn, when the shadows deepen along the edge of the forest and we believe that, if we watch carefully, at any moment we may see the unicorn."

Animal Wednesday - from Cartier

Oh....I adore this ad from Cartier.  (The jewelry - not so much..)  But what a magical video!  HAW!  It made me weep with its wistful beauty.....(but you all know what a *wuss* I am ....I cry when I am happy or sad...)


Bravo Cartier!

HAW!

Love,

♥ Robin ♥

    1. Cris, I'm glad you saw this - because I love the music too...it brings you right along side the Tiger on his journey. I'd never seen anything quite like it!

      Love,

  2. Where the heck do they play a 3 1/2 minute ad?

    "I cry when I am happy or sad.."

    What do you do when you're in-between?

    1. Snow...why in La Belle France, of course - and in some places here too!

      As for my *in-between* states, why, I laugh *manically*!
      A-ha-ha!

      Love,

  3. Oh my gosh, Robin, you are a true twin of the heart - this video is right up my alley as well - that was visual poetry, operatic in scope. I can totally see why it grabbed you - all of that mystery and verve of life packed into a jewel - Cartier's ad people really know what they are doing!

    Blessings for a beautiful weekend dear twin!

    xoxo

  7. Robin, how does one follow your blog? If I had you on my reading list I'd be here more often. That gives me a heads up that you have posted something.
    Lovely Video!

    1. Hi Lynn! I wish I knew the answer to your question as to how to follow my blog.... certain people, Lo, Teri and Cris have been able to do so from the beginning....perhaps they will be able to enlighten you... others, like Suki and Marianne, just have to play it by ear... no matter what, I am always thrilled to have you come visit!

      Love to you ......and of course, Mon Cher Henry! ♥♥
