Lovely books

I'm sure by now, everyone has seen the beautiful collection of Penguin Classics Books. I've been lusting after them ever since they came out and now I finally got one. I got a copy of one of my favorite books Pride and Prejudice. They are even more beautiful in person. Now they have a new set coming out in March. I'd love to get a few more so my shelves can look like this.

movie interiors: Contempt

Contempt is one of my favorite foreign films. It's also the movie that made me really, really want to go to Capri and fall in love with Brigitte Bardot.




check out that iconic table lamp.


I used to really want a red sofa.


Godard seems to use a primary color scheme in a lot of his films.






gotta love a man who bathes with a hat and a cigar.




notice how the floors change from kind of a maple to yellow/gray to gray.






a writer who types with two fingers!




this is the rooftop deck of the villa they stayed at in Capri. I would live there just for that view.


I just love that line.

Spring is here.

This weekend was so gorgeous. It was bright sunny and in the 60's all weekend. It's so weird seeing snow one weekend and people walking around in shorts and tank tops the next! Looks like it's time to break out the warm weather clothes.

new camera

I got a new polaroid camera last week and now that I actually know how to use it (it helps when you put a new battery in!) I can't stop taking pictures with it! There's something about the way you pull the picture out and peel the film apart that is so much more satisfying than just shooting digital. Please make more film soon!






this was shot on delicious chocolate film.

Magda Gluszek

I want to introduce you to a wonderful sculpture artist who happens to be a friend/co-worker of mine. Check out her amazing artwork.




I love the contrast of the chocolate brown and the pastel pink.


this is probably my favorite piece of hers.

Can you guess...

I'll give you a hint. This is one of my all-time favorite children's movies. I had to add an extra row because there's so much to it.



1. Untitled, 2. Untitled, 3. Cinnamon mood, 4. Untitled, 5. Untitled, 6. Untitled, 7. forforever, 8. Gmork, 9. Untitled, 10. Untitled, 11. Untitled, 12. Because it is the only time I am able to step out of my head; to be pulled from this malignant dimension.
