Johnny & Winona



I've seen a few fashion blogs posting pictures of Johnny Depp and Kate Moss, back in their (crazy) relationship years in the late 90s. Well, I'm not a Johnny & Kate fan, and I'm sure he's better off without her. But I can't avoid feeling a certain nostalgia every time I see pictures of Johnny and Winona Ryder together. I know it sounds tacky but I still hope that one day they'll still be together, as life was a possible fairy tale and not a shakesperian tragedy. If it never happens... well, we'll always have Edward Scissorhands.
I'd die for her. I love her so much. I don't know what I would do without her. She's going through a lot right now. I wish I could just kiss away the pain, make it go away, stop it, kill it! If she, you know, (gets teary eyed) I don't know what I would do. I'd kill myself. I love that girl. I love her. I love her almost more than I love myself." (December 1989)



She's my everything. She's my soul, my heart, my girl, my wife to be, my baby's mom, my leading lady. No one will ever fill her shoes. Trust me" (March 1992). More here.

Accessorize

I'm loving the accessories in these street style pictures, they complete the outfit in such a creative way, no matter if it's cold or warm. It reminds me that dressing up should be about having fun in the first place! ^.^

coral lips?



I was trying to find a bright coral lipstick in the similar shade of my barry m nail polish (in love with it right now), as bright lips is the perfect choice to compensate the impossibility of wearing even a simple mascara in my eyes. I went to MAC and asked a salesclerk in danish what colour she would suggest, and the answer came in swedish, while she used my hand to showcase three colours, first a very screaming orange (morange, I guess it was called), a slightly more discreet one (vegas volt) and the shade I liked the most, lady danger. It's a sort of a reddish coral, it does look more coral than in the pictures above. However, it's another shade of red in my lipstick case... By the time I had made up my mind, I spoke english to make sure I had no idea what she was talking about (oh, the frustration), and at the end she convinced me to buy my first lip liner ever, oh well. Still figuring out how to apply it properly.

Marla Singer

Last night I rewatched Fight Club, after nearly 10 years, and it only reminded me why it figures in those best of the 90's top 10 lists, and how much I love Helena Bonham Carter as Marla Singer.




"I got this dress at a thrift store for one dollar. It's a bridesmaid's dress. Someone loved it intensely for one day, then tossed it. Like a Christmas tree - so special, then, bam - it's abandoned on the side of the road, tinsel still clinging to it... Like sex crime victims, underwear inside-out, bound with electrical tape."
