ahhh...

This is so much more inspiring. Maybe it will result in me actually updating this more often. Only time will tell...

This was the best part of The American...

Yes. The poster was the best part.

see, he gets it!

"She is a mom, a daughter, and an artist. She has a special eye, a unique voice, and the curiosity to explore. Couple that with an unconventional physical appeal and what comes through is style - real style, as opposed to someone who is conventionally beautiful and radiates perfection. When you aren't handed the pass of physical beauty, you have to mine other talents, and sometimes that makes you more interesting."
- Marc Jacobs on Sofia Coppola

That's the whole belle laide thing that I'm talking about! Such an elegant way to put it.

not just a pretty face

As you can see from my last post, I am officially obsessed with Mad Men. My aunt mentioned that Jon Hamm hosted SNL this season, and after much searching I was able to watch the episode. I had no idea he was so funny! Check out this digital short:



or this (which is even better!)

Its a Mad Mad World

Pardon my absence recently, but it's because I have been too busy drinking the Kool-Aid. Or at least, the TV Kool-Aid. I hoped on the bandwagon and decided to start watching AMC's Mad Men, and boy oh boy am I hooked!

Granted I wasn't alive in the 60's, but this show certainly makes me wish I were. Everything from the cars, to the furniture, to the hair is perfect! I can't believe how polished the show is. It appears that no detail has been overlooked, which I'm sure is nearly impossible to do in a period piece of this magnitude.

Not only are the sets and wardrobes immaculate, the acting is INCREDIBLE! Jon Hamm plays Don Draper with such poise and confidence while hiding such a complex past. I applaud the casting director that found him. Wow. Clearly I'm obsessed!
