If you’ve ever spent any real time in Firenze, a still like this, which spends a whole ten seconds burning itself into your memory, will leave you simultaneously breathless and heartbroken (for not being there this very second). If you’ve never seen this movie, and have given up having actually trying to chew your way through E.M. Forster’s novel, I highly recommend pouring yourself a large glass of Chianti and letting Calgon take you away…..

Goldie-n Tears
Goldie Hawn in Cactus Flower
How can you not love her beautiful tears in this still? I’ve been watching Netflix.com all week- catching up on old and foreign fashion-based movies and am completely in love with Goldie in this movie. The story revolves around this young record shopgirl who is in love with a supposedly married man played by Walter Matthau. Yeah, I couldn’t get Grumpy Old Men out of my mind either. The premise is a trip, as the leading man is a bit of a cad, and still gets the girl. Geez, the things our mothers had to deal with in their generation.
In the opening scene, Goldie’s character, who is heartbroken by said cad, decides to stick her head in the oven. I know its kinda sick to say, but doesn’t she just look fabulous doing it?
Julie. Julia. And, Oooh, the HATS!

Sweet Cheri
I’m pretty sure my brain exploded when I viewed this movie the first time. Soon after blowing my mind, I immediately watched it again and photographed every delicious fashion moment in this treat of a movie.
Yikes-Devil to Wear Prada to Premiere?
Fashion Wildebeast, Anna Wintour, sure knows how to stare icicles into your skull. With her frozen glare seen above, can’t you almost hear her telepathically tearing apart the outfit you’re wearing? A documentary on the infamous fashion maven is about to be released, according to NY Daily News, and trust, I will be the first in the queue to see this horror movie.
Astaire Does It Again
I cant get over the man in the happy feet whipping the floor with his light feet dancing over its surface with the grace of an ice-dancer…..I’m speaking about Mr. Fred Astaire, of course, and watching The Band Wagon today. Cyd Charisse (** Mental note to change my Starbucks coffee name to that) is a [...]
