Food For Thought:

When girls quote Marilyn by saying “If you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best.”

Everyone in your network that sees this is wondering how often you reach your worst…

Just saying.

A lovely stroll with French Vogue Covers

French Vogue has taken over Champs Elysees in Paris as they have set up shop with covers spanning through the years 1920-2009. There are 70 covers featuring “…Marilyn Monroe, classic vintage fashions, plus glam photos of style icons like Twiggy, Audrey Hepburn, and Catherine Deneuve.”


This is practically museum status. The best part of this besides being able to relive these time periods in fashion is that it’s free! The presentation will be up through all of October.
