acne and miss swinton.



i bought this at indigo today. 12$ for a magazine seems a bit steep to me, but i have heard good things about this one, and this issue was too tempting! one, i love tilda swinton [though when i first picked it up i didn't even realize it was her!], two, this editorial reminds me of the silent films/gustav klimt paintings/siouxsie sioux. three things i adore! i plan to have my hair done like it is in this. it's basically what i have now, but more styled. mine is beginning to look a tad disheveled and un-chic. heaven forbid it!
anyways, you can have a better look at it here: http://fashiongonerogue.com/2010/01/acne-paper-sweden-tilda-swinton-by-paolo-roversi/

i have the next three days off, so i plan to read every article in it with cups of tea at hand.

fidelity.




these are made by a vancouver studio. i have seen them being sold in the little shop not far from where i live, and oh, how i have admired them for about a year now. i would love this one. it reads, in french; "faithful in absence". if only the price point was a little more my style too!

bright star.




i finally watched this movie this morning. it was wonderful. i'd even go as far to say i enjoyed it more than pride&prejudice. somewhat because it was so beautifully done, soft is the word that comes to mind. but mostly because it seemed so real. well, it was real. but it went along so calmly, much like real life. yes, i adored this movie. i have never wept so much during and after a film. in fact, i've never wept, after a film at all! this was a first for me.

so now, like the overly enthusiastic girl i am, i must go out and find a book with all the workings of john keats and read them until my eyes are swollen and dried up of all my tears.

every bit of you is perfect
I can't believe it
every single inch
you dress so classy too
and you kiss so soft
