W is for Wolf on Wall Street

i recently heard about The Wolf on Wall Street, and as you all know the whole world is buzzing about it.
i watched it last week, and damn is it good!
it's almost unbelievable to think that it is based on a true story.
really amazing, not to mention the fashion!
lately i have been enjoying men's fashion a lot, and this movie is jam packed with well tailored suits and most amazing ensembles for men.
the first ever period piece completely based in the 1990s.
Sandy Powell the costume designer just went above and beyond with the costumes.
the suits are just so beautiful and the women's fashion which all looks so incredibly tailored and perfect.
the costumes were all designed to tell a story and to help create the characters.
outfits were carefully selected and each and everyone is perfect.
image is everything.
it's all about the suits.
you are immediately transported into their world of luxury and opulence. 
the women are beautiful and their clothes compliment the men perfectly.
from a fashion perspective this movie is just sheer viewing pleasure.
an absolute feast for the eyes.
i thoroughly enjoyed this movie, however do bear in mind it's almost 3 hours long.
i watched it in two parts, just to make sure i didn't miss anything.
this movie is everything the reviews say and much more!
acting is superb, cinematography and costumes all work together to create a master piece.
i was so motivated after watching it, really do yourself a favour and watch it.
if not to enjoy the fashion than to experience an unbelievable story.

 

A is for Awards, SAG

it's awards season, and that is such a highlight on the fashion calendar.

because lets face it, how often do you get to put on beautiful evening gowns and have a spectacular night out?

hardly ever!

so why not live the fairy tale through your favourite stars?

here are some of my favourites, metallics  seems to be all the trend with lots of beading.

but i do also love simpler, elegant looks.

but the one who takes the cake is "Skylar" from Breaking Bad, the clutch, the dress, the whole ensemble it's just perfection!

who is your favourite?

M is for Motivation

go out and get it done this week!

H is for Her

The other day I read about Her on Miss Moss 
She didn't say anything about the movie, just that it is a must watch.
Since she has amazing taste, I thought I need to watch this.
Yesterday I convinced the boyfriend to sit down and watch it with me.
Watching a movie with no expectation and not knowing what it is about, is quiet liberating.
The bottom line is that Her is an absolute must see!
Get your hands on it and watch it asap, but please don't go read about it, do yourself the favour of experiencing something new and different.
It will make you think, and it is just shot beautifully.
Really perfect cinematography.
Sunday nights are all about relaxing, fun, enjoying a good movie.
So what are you waiting for?

 

 

 

T is for Tapestry

As some of you my know I have developed a huge love and a bit of an addiction when it comes to tapestries. I'm always keeping my eyes open while I'm hunting for beauties and today I stumbled onto this gorgeous 1,9m long tapestry. It's pastel shades and gorgeous subject matter just spoke to me and I had to have it! I brought it home now I just need to find the right wall space for it. This is one big decor love I'm not letting go of anytime soon! My dream a huge wall if tapestries, I'm getting there!
