i love that this week has turned into an accidental tribute to france!
(not a bad way to spend a week, i'd say)
and what a better way to end it
than to talk about something completely and undeniably french..
an upcoming filmthat explores the beautifully artistic
and gloriously indomitable spirit
of the quintessential french fashion icon
.coco chanel.
it's release date
is one week from today here in the states
(friday september 25..yes my calender is marked in red!)
the exciting part,
other than it starring the gorgeously easy to watch
audrey tatou
(amelie!)
is that it follows coco's life before she was chanel
before the fame and fortune..
she had such an interesting life.
i never knew she was an orphan, or that she tried to become a singer..
oop. stop me before i reveal too much.
(i'm one of those..i research everything feverishly when i find something i love)
her unique vision and strong spirit are incredibly inspiring
and really,
whether you go in knowing her beautiful story or not,
the movie is going to be one poetic frame after another.
...french countryside, early 1900s, paris,
the clothes, the colors, the sets...
a true feast for the eyes.
so in the meantime,
i hope you have a wonderful weekend
full of inspiration.
we're going to lake ontario...apple picking has begun in ny state!
what are you going to do?
i'd love to hear
