if i were to live inside the world of aunite mame, i’d be perfectly happy. even if i were stuck inside of its opening kaleidoscope jeweled credits! i’ve never heard of auntie mame until the past year, and then it was as if references were everywhere from inspiring the costume designer of mad men to becoming a basis for the hunger games character effie trinket to holiday party conversations.
every second of this film i was smiling from ear to ear. from the wardrobe to rosalind russell’s body language, every frame is pure happiness. and did i mention the clothes?!?!?!?!!? they are to die for!
rosalind russell’s mame has easily entered my top 5 favourite characters of all time. her motto is too “live, live, live!!!” while she suggests that “life is a banquet and most poor suckers are starving to death!” even at her worst times, mame still has happiness (and whatever is left) to give around and she’s proof that even in the bad times, if you believe good things will come your way, then they will!
i respect that mame chooses colours as bold as her personality. she is fun and vibrant and her wardrobe completely compliments that, which isn’t that what wardrobes should do for all of us? i also adore how mame changes her hair colour as quickly as she changes her hobbies and interests.
much to learn from here. both on the inside and out. oh auntie mame! highly recommended.

how i’ve lived so long and not seen 
solid colours, clean cuts, and tailored fits. impeccable. may we also mention this stunning black lace number with the mask and sparkled eye shadow??? oh my!!
not only is the wardrobe heavenly, but peter o’toole is such a dreamboat! so charming! i can’t get over how fun and playful this film is. highly recommended!
part un.
part deux.
sometimes we need to drive away. we need to turn off the computer, say goodbye to all we know, and soak in the sun with breaths of new intention. it’s been quite some time since i’ve been on a holiday. and well… tomorrow it’s time to begin a new, 10 day adventure across the united states. (i know, 10 whole days without blog updates!!! oh the pain!!!) but did you know that i’m on 
what a dreamy spring outfit. it is my goal to wear a flower crown before the summer is up. i apologize for my lack of blog post as of lately, i’ve seem to have found myself a gentleman friend and well, you know how those first few weeks are. (oh yes, lots of butterflies and cheek blushing going on over here.)
in the know.
