Stage Door, 1937

A couple of weeks ago I saw Karyn's post about the film Stage Door. It's one of those movies that I could of sworn I'd seen, but really I hadn't. I finally watched it today and I just loved it! It stars Ginger Rogers, Katharine Hepburn, Lucille Ball and more. Quite the amazing cast! The story is super sweet and totally worth a watch if you haven't seen it already. Oh, and the clothes are fabulous! So many floral dresses, sailor outfits, playsuits and awesome coats! The 1930's just might be my favorite decade for fashion.

I hope you all are having a nice holiday! Mine has been great. I can't wait to show you some of the pretty things I got for Christmas! Talk to you soon! xo

Leslie Caron's Pixie

 Leslie Caron's pixie has always been one of my favorites! I'm in the middle of reading her memoir and she talked a little bit about her cropped hairdo... but first some pictures!

Leslie was brought to Hollywood from France in 1950 by none other than Gene Kelly to star in An American in Paris. While getting styled for the role Leslie tried to explain to the hair stylist she wanted a short boycut, like a model she had seen on a magazine in France. The hairstylist thought Leslie was crazy and didn't do what Leslie wanted. So, Leslie went home that night and cut her hair herself! After studio people saw her hair they were outraged, haha! They actually delayed filming for three weeks to allow Leslie's hair to grow a bit. In the film Leslie's hair is styled in tight curls, which she hated! After filming Leslie kept her hair super short and straight like she wanted. So technically Leslie was the first Hollywood startlet to rock a pixie cut. Before Mia, Jean or even Audrey!

Inspiration Friday, Sunglasses

I'm the kind of girl that can't go anywhere without my sunglasses. I have them on before I even leave home. I wear them on cloudy, rainy days. I wear them instead of makeup, lol. I even sometimes wear them inside. Sunglasses are my favorite accessory! So, when I saw

Johanna's post featuring amazing sunglasses I knew I had to share.

Check out Marilyn's basset hound!! I can't wait to get a basset hound puppy! :O)

When it comes to my sunglasses I definitely gravitate towards the style of the 40's, 50's and 60's. What's your favorite era for sunglasses?

PS: Be sure to check out Johanna's blog if you haven't already!

Have a great weekend! xo

Inspiration Friday, Hailee Steinfeld For Miu Miu

When I saw these images of Hailee Steinfeld for Miu Miu's Fall 2011 collection I fell head over heels! Get it? Hehe! Anway, I had seen the first picture floating around on tumblr a couple months ago and honestly I thought it was from the 1940's. It wasn't until last week that I discovered it was Hailee Steinfeld for Miu Miu. I'm slow, I know! The 1940's, Lolita thing that's going on in these pictures is just divine.

It seems every fall I gravitate towards 1940's fashion. Maybe this year even more so with lots of 40's like fashion being on the runways. What decade of fashion do you find yourself loving this fall?

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! xo

Inspiration Friday, Norma Jeane

I recently discovered the most wonderful tumblr blog Fashion + Suggestion with an amazing collection of Norma Jeane photos! I thought I'd seen all there was to see of the girl that became Marilyn Monroe, but I was so wrong. Here are some new to me Norma Jeane photos that I just adore! Most of which have a fall like feeling to them ;o)

Have a lovely weekend! xo
