Living la Vida Cheetah Part 2

Though I posted the Part 1 to this post months ago, I decided to finally put up Part 2.  This are photos from a book I made two years ago called "Living la Vida Cheetah"

It documents my obsession with cheetah print- I did these lips with some liquid eye liner and a dash of creativity.


Cheetah print really is O So Fabulous.

Outfit #20



Things have been crazy busy these days.  Finals week, moving out, working on my friend's film for 12 hours a day.  Needless to say, my outfits have been lacking.  But here is what I wore my last day of finals.  I had been painting for a week straight (9 paintings to do in only 6 weeks!)  Pictures of those will be posted soon.

But this outfit was just so comfy to wear- Urban Outfitters top; Tights from TJ Maxx, Nike sneakers (a birthday present from my grandmother), and mom's jewelry

Traffic


I've said it once and I'll say it again.  If you ever get bored in traffic- just take pictures.

Portrait Obsession







For some reason I have a strange obsession with taking photos of people.  Here are a few I took on my Nikon 35mm film camera about a year ago. 

Longing for the Coast

I miss the beach right now.  I've been up north for the whole summer so far and am getting a bit sad.



These photos of my sister always make me smile.  She looks like she came out of Hollywood in the 1950's

Time Warp

I found this picture of me from last year.  I'm standing in front of a Galaxy 500.  No, it's not mine but I wish it was.  Mostly because of the Reverend Horton Heat  song "Galaxy 500"

Some of My Favourites...



Sometimes I wish I was in one of my favorite old movies...


Swing Time
I have the Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers collection on DVD, but Swing Time was the first film of theirs I had seen.  Ginger sure can dance, and I've tried once or twice to learn the waltzes from this movie.  Oh, if you're wondering... I didn't succeed in learning the waltzes.
All About Eve
This film is a must see.  Bette Davis and her raspy voice instantly caught my attention. Oh, and the outfits are beautiful.
Sabrina
I saw this movie on TCM one day when I was sick.  Since I'm not the biggest Audrey fan, I wasn't sure if this film was worth watching.  I was so wrong.  Instantly I was sucked in to the movie and hoped that it would never end.  


This is not a very detailed list of my favorite old movies.  Maybe I'll feature one every few days.  So many, so little time...
