Must Have Find

I just stumbled upon Mari Testino's book Let Me In, a collection of intimate, candid photographs of celebrities. Must have must have must have! The photographs are absolutely beautiful. There is something wonderfully refreshing about celebrities in a more raw and pure form.

The New Bardot

Every time I see a picture of Mick Jagger's daughter, Georgia, I instantly think of Brigitte Bardot. She embodies the lust and seduction that made Miss Bardot so unforgettable.

Mischka

I really like the feel of the Spring 2010 Badgley Mischka line. It is wearable, chic, sophisticated, and clean. What do you think?

Can't Help Falling In Love

My guilty pleasure list is getting bigger by the minute. This absolutely adorable (and, yes, over-the-top) cheetah tote from Juicy Couture makes me dreamy-eyed. The giant black bow is my favorite part, it is so chic and playful. Love love love!

I Do

I'm sure you've already seen this darling video, but I just had to add it to my blog. This wedding dance makes me smile, cry, blush, and wish I were getting married right now! I hope it puts a smile on your face! Hope everyone had a lovely Thanksgiving.

Pick Me Up

Oh, there is nothing like a nice long marathon of Gossip Girl to lift my spirits. Its an hour of fashion eye candy, what more could I ask for?!

Emile

Sorry to do another boy crush post, but I've fallen in love (again)! Emile Hirsch has kept me blushing for the past week; I've watched 3 of his movies: The Girl Next Door, Milk, and Into The Wild. Boy oh boy is he beautiful or what?! He is also incredibly charming and endearing... I'm obsessed!

Warming Up

I love this new video for climate change. I can't think of a better way to get the public's attention than to have supermodels undress ;) And to top it off, they have the most adorable clothes on ever-- it looks like they're wearing Urban Outfitter's entire store!

My Oh My

I can't believe how attractive Marlon Brando was as a young man. Boy, he makes me swoon! He reminds me of James Dean.. such dark and handsome boys.

The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus

It's finally here! I can't stop watching the trailer, Heath Ledger and Lily Cole look so lovely..

Claudette

We have screened two Claudette Colbert movies in my film class- It Happened One Night, and Imitation of Life. I am so captivated by her, she just shines. She reminds me of Clara Bow, with her spunky charm and those lovely heavy eyes. I also love her style. The gowns she wore in Imitation of Life are spectacular.

Anthropologie Lust

I'm in a daze over Anthropologie's new fall collection. What do you think? The shoes are irresistible- I must have them all!

Always A Lady Skirt

Flaxen Wedges

Bubbled Meadowlands Dress

Lolland Sweater Dress

Scarf-Tied Oxfords

Gap

I think the Gap commercials are just darling. Every time I see one, I want to dance and shop. I especially love the Audrey Hepburn and Sarah Jessica Parker commercials- how cute are they!? I love how spunky Sarah is and I can never get enough of Audrey.

Faye

There isn't a single girl who doesn't dream of being Bonnie Parker after watching Bonnie and Clyde- oh, to be a rebellious girl!- and it is all thanks to Faye Dunaway. Not only is Faye a blonde bombshell, her style in the film is just fantastic- its so classic, so sexy, and so chic. Why don't we dress like this more? Her clothes are perfect for trendy and sophisticated women with places to go and things to do! I'm going to make it a personal goal of mine to put a little more Bonnie, and a little more Faye into my wardrobe!

Camille

I just watched Camille, starring Sienna Miller and James Franco. Though the movie got horrible reviews, I thought it was delightful (maybe I'm just a sucker for fairy tales and James Franco..) But more delightful than anything was how adorable Camille was with her pretty red hair and chic little white dress! Her wedding dress in the movie is lovely and bubbly too, but I couldn't seem to find a good picture to post!

Kate

I never get tired of looking at her photos...

Annabelle's Serpentine Dance

Now that I am immersed in my film class, a lot of my posts will be of films and clips I have been watching... I just watched another beautiful little piece called The Serpentine Dance which was one of the first movies ever made after the discovery of series photography. The film was shot in 1894 by the Lumière brothers. I thought this clip was very fitting for a blog about lovely things, and I thought you all would enjoy it.

Whirlwind

My goodness, I have been so caught up in the start of classes- I've had no time to breathe! I just want to get these first couple of weeks out of the way so that I can be in my routine and have some chill time again. I miss summer already... although I do love fall fashion! In February, I posted about Clara Bow, and I had my first film class today, and I found out that next week we will be screening the 1927 film It! I am glad I have something to get me through the rest of the week. I will try and post more often, but this new routine is tough!

Take a look at the first science fiction silent film ever made... Le Voyage dans le Lune (A Trip to the Moon) was made by Georges Melies in 1902, and is a delightful and imaginative film. I love the scene where the women are in the stars- how magical!

Woodstock Babies

I'm on one of my baby kicks, and I love the 60's style clothes (and to-die-for boots) at babyGap!

Indulge

I am feeling awfully depressed about the summer ending, so I've decided to make this coming weekend a time for me to indulge in some of my guilty pleasures. The weekend will consist of chick flicks galore, thin mint blizzards from dairy queen, a Sex and the City marathon, and Juicy Couture velour pants! It seems trivial, but taking time to treat yourself to a few guilty pleasures is really comforting. What kinds of guilty pleasures do you indulge in?

Chic and Comfy

I really love Sienna Miller's style, and I love this whole ensemble shes got going- its very retro and chic, but its also really relaxed and laid back. I'm always looking for ways to be comfy and relaxed while still looking stylish!

Cotillard

I just came across these stylish photos of Marion Cotillard (who, by the way, was lovelier than even in Public Enemies!) Miss Cotillard is so classy and elegant...very inspiring.
