long gloves = elegance

Continuing my love of knitwear, I now have a thing for gloves. Specifically long gloves. They are just so elegant. For some reason long gloves remind me of a bygone time when people had time and inclination to dress up and practicality was not such an issue. Ahh... what a wonderful thought.

In the spirit of reclaiming some of this elegance, I went in search of inspiration...

So chic, so warm. I love the lace-like detail around the cuff.

If only I were game to wear them. Ah...
