My Weeks Wish List

Normally typical 'Wish Lists' consist of extremely expensive designer 'It' items, that I would love to own (such as the entire Ellie Saab collection and Stella McCartney underwear). But I have had to come to terms with the fact that I do not buy my clothes from Net a Porter. So I have created a much more realistic wish list.

1.) Midnight in Paris DVD by Woody Allen- Nominated for many Oscars I could not recommend this film enough, a lovely tale set in the most stylish city with a great cast.

2.) Lancome Doll Eyes Macara- the name and packaging is really pretty plus I adore this beauty brand.

3.) Marc Jacobs, Lola purse spray- This is my favourite perfume and this little compact version with the printed purse is so sweet.

4.) Television box set- I want a fun fashionable series to watch whilst its so cold and wintery outside. Im thinking Sex And The City, Mad Men or My So Called Life.

5.) River Island pink foil pleated mini skirt- Quite different to what I would normally wear but it would be such a good Spring pick me up and is very on trend with its flapper style pleats and is also on trend with its girlie colours.

Melancholia

Melancholia is incredibly pretty yet intense. I planned to go see this film in the cinemas but regretfully missed it so bought it for £12.99 as soon as it was released on DVD. Directed by Lars Von Trier the film is set out in two parts. With beautiful back drops and costumes it was one of the most Stylish films I've seen this year. Kirsten Dunst is one of the better young actress's as she shows emotion but still maintains a sense of realistic subtly. However in Melancholia I found her character irritable and unlikable but her character develops powerfully throughout the film proving it to be a challenging role. However personally for me it was Charlotte Gainsbourg that stood out. I would definitely recommend this film however it is not a light hearted watch with the apocalyptic concept but it still has the love and sister relationship theme, along with a very pretty wedding dress.
