Early Halloween

Many of you probably already know, after Lady Gagas music video, who Zombie Boy is. If not let me introduce him. Meet Rick Genest, Eighty percent of his body is covered with tattoos, including designs of an entire skeleton (skull included), it is the depiction of a body decomposing—complete with flesh eating insects. Genest has spent over $17,000.00 on tattooing his body and will continue until his tapestry is finished. His nickname is "Zombie Boy"

for Halloween i decided to try out a rendition of this look, the skeleton/zombie.

bOO!


Happy Halloween :)

Submarine

This is a bit of a random post but I absolutely had to share this movie. Submarine is a beautifully written coming-of-age film about 15 year old Oliver Tate.  It is his journey trying to find love and his place in the world. As an avid film watcher, it has been a while since I came across a movie that got me this excited. From its direction, to cinematography, to its witty dialogue, this movie is absolutely flawless. And the soundtrack by Alex Turner fits so perfectly with the feel of the movie. For those of you who don’t enjoy the “artsy”, low budget, indie movies, and then this is definitely not for you, but I do hope you give a chance because it really is an incredibly different film. Those of you from England might have heard about or already watched this movie, but for us here in America it just came out on iTunes about a week ago. I can not recommend this movie enough! Let me know if you decide to watch it.

For A Rainy Day

  

  Summer is over and it's absence has sure been noticeable. Weather here is getting colder as we prepare ourselves for winter. I, however am not complaining because autumn is my absolute favorite season, and rainy weather during fall is even better. Though it may be hard for some of you to pack away your shorts and sandals, don't be discouraged because there are a lot of gorgeous trends for the upcoming cold weather.   Check-in for more updates on fall and winter looks.
