"with short hair you begin to crave pearl necklaces, long earrings, and a variety of sunglasses. and you brush your teeth more often. short hair removes obvious femininity and replaces it with style. when it starts growing out a little and losing its style, you have to wear sunglasses until you can get it to the hairdresser. that's why you need a variety. short hair makes you aware of subtraction as style. you can no longer wear puffed sleeves or ruffles; the neat is suddenly preferable to the fussy. you eye the tweezers instead of the blusher. what else can you take away? you can't hide behind short hair... you may look a little androgynous, a little unfinished, a little bare... but your face is no longer a flat screen surrounded by a curtain: the world sees you in three dimensions."
- joan juliet buck for american vogue, c.1988 (via the political quotidian)

Morena Baccarin in March 2010 InStyle Magazine
I love Morena's look! In this InStyle shoot she wears bright vivid pattern pieces by Gucci, Pucci, Versace and Jason Wu just to name a few. I love the pieces on her and hopes she wears some of these pieces to future red carpet events! It's giving me a couple of ideas for a couple of events that are coming up. image soource: newsgab

A La Gamine

So let me update you on the pass month I was M.I.A. I cut my hair again, this time its a gamine cut which I love!

I discovered a new fav blog: http://www.garancedore.fr/en/ I absolutely love her. Her illustrations are my wallpaper a work, lol.

What else....Oh, we are having a Love Dinner next weekend and I'm in charge of the decorations. I am going to do American Willows and tea lights.... So excited! I'm going to be moving into an apartment with my cousin and baby sis (this will be a lot to blog about, lol), and my best friend is about to have a baby boy in 2 weeks! I'm going to be a God-mother again! I've been so busy and for that I apologize but I will talk to you guys on a regular basis.

You Inspire Me....

I love France! The culture, the language, the style! (My friends and I are going to Paris next year!) I was looking up new haircuts and I feel in love with a cut called the "Gamine cut". Audrey Hepburn had one; and as I google and come across more images (especially french celebs) I'm convinced its time for a cut! Audrey Tatou makes me want to cut my hair myself! I'm in a stage where I need to change. I'm boring myself; and that's not a good look.

Anyway, I wen to see The Young Victoria with my friend Beatriz and I have to say I absolutely loved it! Victoria and Albert's love story was so beautiful! I also love Emily Blunt and Rupert Friend (swoon worthy; Mr. Wickham in Pride & Prejudice US version) so maybe I'm a swayed easily. Anyway, it made me think of modern day romance, or the lack thereof really; and how we're so comfortable with it. I am sorry, I love the sonnets, the letters, etc. I'm not saying be cheesy to the point I will vomit (lol), I'm just saying can we put romance back into romance?
