Eeee I'm so excited! This morning I bought tickets to the Florence and the Machine show in Philly this summer! If you haven't gotten on the Florence Welch band wagon, buy her CD asap. It is so so good. I'm going to the show in Philly because that is where I'll be working this summer, but she is also playing at the Greek Theater in LA. Be sure to buy tickets immediately. They will sell out.

This morning I also bought tickets to see the Bill Cunningham documentary: Bill Cunningham New York. For fashion lovers in LA, this spring is a smorgasbord of opportunities. First the Oscar Costumes exhibit, then the Rodarte exhibit, and now a Bill Cunningham film. The film is only playing in LA for a week at the Nuart, starting on March 25th. And on the first day the director and producer will be there. So get your tickets for that too! The trailer makes it look like a great glimpse into the life of a private man.

12 Days of Christmas - Day 7

I got so caught up with going to the movies and playing Scrabble with my family that I completely forgot about my winter-holiday themed post of the day! I have to admit that even though there is beautiful snow outside, watching The Tourist really put me in the mood for fabulous travels around Europe in elegant designer clothes and not winter weather and snow boots. So today I will post pictures from the movie and the cities in it.

PS: If you haven't seen The Tourist, it is worth renting when it comes out on DVD. The reviews were very "meh" but I loved it. It was light, simple fun. The background, the clothes, and the actors were beautiful. The dialog was witty, and the plot was not overly contorted like a James Bond movie would have been. It is a perfect Saturday afternoon movie.
