An American in Paris

I love to watch movies while I work on the weekends. I had forgotten how absolutely wonderful An American in Paris was when I played it last weekend, it was so good that I had to stop what I was doing and give it my whole attention! I have decided that I have a small crush on Gene Kelly, which most likely stems back to my childhood education of old Hollywood musicals. I wish they still made movies like this - if you haven't seen this one, it's perfect.

One of my favorite numbers, Gene Kelly and Leslie Caron are perfection dancing together.

Not to mention, Leslie Caron's costume from the black and white ball at the end of the film is so beautiful, that I really wish I could have one just like it.

Dreaming of Dresses

I have been quite distracted this morning, and while I should have been spending time working I was instead, spending it looking at pretty dresses. I would like to wear dresses like these everyday of my life, and Mod Cloth always gives me an excuse to day dream of doing so!

She & Him: Bank Heist

oh so lovely

I had to share two of my favorite Etsy finds as of lately, and I moving both of these beautiful treasures to the top of my wish list! I am in love with all of the felt brooches from AAlicia Accessories Shop, and imagine wearing them with one of my solid tops and knee length skirts!

She uses a great Blue Green color combination for this bundle of fall flowers.

And this Coral Pink cluster would be perfect to brighten up any outfit!

I also stumbled across Cupcake Social, and these cupcake papers would be perfect to dress up my next batch of tasty treats! Among all of the fun papers and cupcake toppers these tulip petals papers are unlike any of I have seen.
