happy friday everyone! this week can't be done quickly enough for me! i totally forgot about the petite fashion challenge KTR hosted, here. check out the fascinator fashions these bloggers have posted! there are some types of movies that short of losing a bet with me, my husband will not watch. on evenings when he works, i take advantage of that to watch them. the most recent movie was "snow white and the huntsman". i'm behind. i know. at this rate, it will be 2014 by the time i get to see "skyfall". i had very low expectations, but i have to say this: holy shades of princess mononoke and neverending story, batman! ok. done. shakes it off.
i was not overwhelmed by a certain ms. stewart. watching this after her scandal, also coloured the movie. charlize theron, however was spectacularly stunning and her costumes were nothing short of amazing - the fashion/couture gone wild in the movie made up for the shortcomings as i could not wait to see the next scene so we could be regaled with the next outfit she would be decked in. maybe she chewed up scenery with wild abandon, but in all of those sumptuous gowns, i barely noticed the overdone bananacrackers queen's descent into madness.

I watched "Skyfall" a few weeks ago and loved it. Daniel Craig is definitely my favorite bond =) I didn't get to participate this month's challenge but certainly enjoyed all entries. I love your booties. Was it a recent purchase?
ReplyDeletethank you Sydney - these are from last year, and they were prompted and inspired by the lovely Jean. after Connery, Craig is on my list of best Bonds.
DeleteI love your DVF shirt here - and the pants really do create a slim line on you when paired with those booties. You look wonderful as always!
ReplyDeleteI have not seen Snow White & The Huntsmen so I am glad I read your review. I am clearly not missing out!
thank you W! ya, i wasn't expecting much, but there were big gaps in the story. i tend to overanalyze alot too, so i couldn't handle them. lol. :P
DeleteI SO love the top, and those booties!

DeleteGorgeous blouse! I only recently watched Snow White and the Huntsman and it exceeded my expectations(I had 'em pretty low to begin with) and loved the cinematography. You should watched Skyfall, too. It it perhaps one of the best Bond movies by far. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!
the cinematography was stunning - agreed! i am hearing so many good things about this movie, i hope to catch it soon. xox
DeletePretty pretty blouse!

that really means a lot to me! thank you Kerry! xox
DeleteI totally agree with you about Snow White & the Huntsman! It was so aesthetically pleasing that it just held my interest and I was able to push the other things aside as I anxiously awaited for the scenes with Charlize. The thing about Kristen Stewart is that I can't even see her without thinking of Bella Swan. I don't think she can play any role besides Bella. Sad, but true.

it's so true - it was impossible not to be drawn to the cinematography, and costumes. that's too bad that kristen stewart seems to be type-cast so young. she's trying to diversify though.
Deletegreat outfit! love your blouse!
