new year's dress

I had lovely christmas holiday and I hope you all did as well. I got those pink sparkley ballet flats from jcrew and can't wait to wear them out. I did not get snow, but 60 degree weather and a torrential downpour. Not my ideal christmas weather, but what can ya do.

The only thing I like about new year's eve is the cute cocktail dresses that are out everywhere. Here's a few that I'm particularly fond of:


Quail Frenchie Dress from UO


andersen and loth grecian gauze dress from uo


shimmer satin dress from tulle


elizabeth dress with liv bolero from plumo


party dresses from betsey johnson


erin fetherston


white sixties dress from salvage life

storque feature

I was featured in a Storque article yesterday over on etsy. It was a shop local piece on Atlanta and I was one of the chosen sellers. :)

I am so jealous of all of these snow photos I'm seeing all over flickr. It finally dropped back down below 60! It's still supposed to warm back up and rain just in time for christmas. Mother Nature, what did I ever do to you?

coincidence

I was looking through my book,

The Audrey Hepburn Treasures

and saw this wedding photo of hers


I noticed it looks so much like my mom's wedding dress. You can't tell from this picture obviously, but it's almost the exact shade of pink and about the same shape and everything. The collar is pretty much the only thing that's different. I just thought that was interesting.


(I really miss my polaroid camera! It died a month or so ago and I don't think I should buy a new one because it's so hard to find film now.)

red and snow

I've found more lovely deep saturated red over at anthropologie today. So beautiful.



and while I was over there, I happened to find this skirt I've been drooling over on clearance for $40! (and now I see they are sold out my size. good thing I ordered it yesterday!) It reminded me of my photograph.



I saw these over at oh joy! today. I just love the clean white look to them.


I'm still waiting for this:

sick of this weather

It's so dreary here right now. It's in the mid 60's and raining again. I'm not feeling christmasy at all. So, I've been looking up movies all this morning. I saw this photo somewhere and it reminded me of foreign 60's and 70's movies like la dolce vita (which I absolutely adore).



My husband heard somewhere that they will be realeasing Comtempt on blu-ray soon and it made me very excited. I love bridget bardot. That movie makes me want to go to capri so bad!




I love their apartment.
