Some Kind of Plaid

I'm not sure why this type of plaid makes me think of watts from John Hughes "Some kind of Wonderful". Watts is a tomboy who is best friends with Keith. Keith on the other hand is fixated with miss popular Amanda Jones. I won't ruin the movie incase you never seen it, but it is one of John Hughes movies that is under rated and does not get the praise it deserves. 

On another note, i've been MIA for a few days....ooops! Been busy with homework(french and italian) but through out my day I often think of fashion and why I cannot wait to be "working" in it somehow.

Which is why I LOVE instagram, in the moment I can capture what ever inspires or moves me regarding fashion, art and colors. Incase you are ashamed for not following me yet on instagram, you can redeem yourself....tehe...by clicking here --------> My instagram!

Ah...the 80's

Sincerely, The Breakfast Club! by painthead featuring white gold jewelry

Ah, The 80's where Love was a battle field and Bananarama had a cruel summer.

I was a teeny tiny little girl during the 80's, so I guessed I lived through the 80's, but cannot recall any of it; beside my toys and music. I was to little to remember anything esle. I wish my mom and older sister still had all their 80's rags. The 80's have become the "new" 70's. People are having parties in this theme or if anything is found from the 80's it is already considered "vintage". Either way, this decade was unique as all decades before and after, but something about the 80's was very special. Music was an art, no gimmicks; just style and singing. Movies had the best story line and sound tracks. Simple Minds said it best, "Don't you forget about Me" during the unforgettable "The Breakfast Club" movie.

So happy we haven't. What is your favorite decade?

Sad day in the Movie world

One of my biggest inspiration in script writing passed away. John Hughes who wrote some of the best 80's teen flick there is. He is most known for writing "The Breakfast Club", "Pretty in Pink", "Sixteen Candles", "Ferris Bueller's day off", "Home Alone", "National Lampoon's Vacation" and one of my all time faves "Some kind of Wonderful".

His movies made a few unknown actors into 80's icons like Molly Ringwald and John Cusack.

One of my goals was to meet him some. I am writing a script to be a movie some day and now he is gone :( Other writers/directors who inspire me are M. Night Shyamalan , Stephan King, but John hughes was my number one. So sad, i watch his movies often. Could never get enough watts from Some kind of Wonderful and little miss princess claire from The Breakfast Club, such classics. Another genius gone :( NOTE* I'll add the links later to this post, i really don't feel like it right now.
