In which I note that I am still alive and post more pictures

Sorry for the long silence AGAIN, but I just thought it would be fun to get deathly ill and hang out on my death bed for the better part of the week. Well guess what? It wasn't!
What I'm posting are pictures of 2 Sundays ago, when the weather was nice and I wasn't dieing. (okay the weather's really nice today as well, and I'm pretty much alive, but I thought an impact sentence would be good.)Leather Jacket, Cardigan, and Skirt: I Pinco Pallino
Boots: Unnamed
Leggings, Bag, and Shirt: H&M

See you guys, I promise I'll be back!

Just another saturday night post...

Can you believe I'm heading off to study chemistry soon enough? Puah! Saturday night's are overrated, and my head hurts so bad all I want to do is lay down in the dark and listen to Janis Joplin and La Roux.
By the way I am SO in love with this look from Zoe Saldana (even though it's from a while ago). Doesn't she dress so very nicely?
This BEAUTIFUL dress is RM by Roland Mouret.

Sorry for the boring boring short short post.
I'll be posting some more soon enough.
Enjoy your evening, or day, depending where you are.

OSSSSSCARS 2010! (am I late?)

Amanda Seyfried In Armani Privè ( the entire colour palette kinda reminds me of an angel.)
Sigourney Weaver In Lanvin (I suppose saying she looks good would be understated.)
Cameron Diaz In Oscar De La Renta (girly and glamorous? yessss)


Rachel MacAdams In Elie Saab Haute Couture ( I love it! An Oscar risk that paid off.)
Jennifer Lopez In Armani Privè ( I don't like her, and I don't even like the dress ON her..but the dress itself? Pretty darn awesome.)

Kate Winslet In Yves Saint Laurents (she looks elegant, stately and beautiful)

Vera Farmiga In Marchesa (The colours pretty brilliant, and the dress is a wrong that somehow works.)

Carey Mulligan In Prada (Perfection)

Zoe Saldana In Givenchy Haute Coture (the colors, the ruffles, the beaded bodice....brava brava Zoe)

Maggie Gyllenhaal In Dries Van Noten (Looks like another fashion risk that paid off to me)

Penelope Cruz In Donna Karan (Finally some color woman! I love it.)

Katherine Biglow In Yves Saint Laurent (She looks like the winner she is, yes Yves does that to people.) And though I haven't seen her movie, I am soo proud of her for her win.

Sandra Bullock In Marchesa (Sorry for all the times I've said you looked bad Sandra, and I'm sure I'll do it again...but when it was the big moment, you looked beautiful.)

Notes On "Alice"

I loved it.
And I could stop right here.
Put simply, the Burton-Bonham-Depp-Elfman cocktail did it again. It was probably the least "Burtonish" (let's describe the undescribable like that), but the imaginary quality, the costume choices, the colors, the visionary experience, oh those were all there. If you enjoy a good piece of art, go watch it. And if you already have, then tell me what you think.
I'll shut up have a look at the costumes now.

Before wrapping this up, I just wanted to announce that I was contacted by BlogInterviewer.com and have been asked to submit an interview for their site. It's nothing big but it's my fist interview and you can imagine I'm pretty excited.
I'm including the link right here.

Movie Week

So it's not like a person like me can do anything with some degree of measure right? Right. I haven't been to the movies in almost a year, and now I'm going twice in two days...
We watched Avatar today, and though I was put off by the trip most of the populace was on, I'm ultimately satisfied with it. I went into the cinema expecting some huge action movie with great effects, and found myself watching a great movie made by a visionary genius (yes with great effects too). Oh and he managed to throw in a decent storyline...koodos.
But what I am REALLY anticipating is Alice In Wonderland....Tim Burton is my man, and I don't even have to wait to watch it to know I adore it. (Now just you wait....I'll hate it....Murphy's fucking Law I say.)
Thanks for listening to this blabber. And thank you everyone who follows, comments, or just reads this blog, it's nice to know my point of view gets feedback.
Goodnight people.
