"What's A Girl To Do"



I am so excited about finally seeing Bat For Lashes perform on Friday night. And in her home town of Brighton no less! I'm going down Friday afternoon and spending the weekend in Brighton. It's going be to a great weekend. Now to decide what to wear.......

A Girl Can Dream

I'm completely in love with the Alexander McQueen dress Drew Barrymore wore to the "Whip It!" premier in Toronto this week. The man is a fashion genius. I'm looking forward to seeing someone else wearing another one of the dresses from the 2010 resort collection that has a similar lace pattern. How stunning,... sigh!

Hooker DreamEscape

Today i am totally loving Natalia Fabia's artwork. I first came across her when she was on an episode of Miami Ink, and i thought her paintings were amazing, but today i stumbled across her latest collection "Hooker DreamEscape". They are stunning. I wish i could see them in person. Her work usually features "Hookers" a word she uses to describe “rad, talented chicks”, because essentially we are all "selling our talents". Her style has defiantly got more realistic as her career has blossomed, but i love the old and the newer work, she has such a distinct style and use of colour. I can't wait to see what she does next. Hope to one day to at least own a print!

This is not a love story. This is a story about love.

OMG! I saw 500 Days Of Summer yesterday - at last, I've been waiting for ages! It was brilliant. It really affected me, i was properly crying near the end. I haven't really felt that way about a film since Lost In Translation. It's so nice to see love portrayed in such a realistic way, it really inspired me to want to write again. It also completely refueled my girl crush on Zooey Deschanel, think i own almost all her films, and i loved her as Kat in Weeds. Her characters are always vaguely similar but her emotional range as an actress is fantastic, totally believable. She's also completely beautiful.
