Jolly Sailor Bold

Just saw Pirates of the Caribbean yesterday. It's crazy that I have to travel 30miles to watch a movie!! But anyways, it was a fun day. After a long time it was not cloudy and cold. Got my first 3D glasses and was finally watching Johnny after a long time.

The highlight of the movie (besides Johnny Depp ofcourse) was this moment. Something about the timing, the background score, Gemma Ward's face... everything was just perfect.

My heart is pierced by Cupid,

I disdain all glittering gold,
There is nothing that can console me
but my jolly sailor bold.

Come all ye pretty fair maids
Whoever you may be
Love a Jolly Sailor Bold
Who plows the raging sea

Just can't seem to get the lyrics out of my mind. Who would not jump into the water after listening to that!

Old Wine In A New Bottle

When I saw this Carmen Marc Volvo dress, it just took my breath away. I am in love with this dress. It looks so gorgeous and sexy and glamourous.

It reminds me of Katherine Hepburn in The Philadelphia Story. Love it when designers re-invent those oldies for today. There are quite a few dresses in that movie that needs to be redone for today.
 

This makes me wonder if re-invented dresses are better than vintage dresses....

Spring Bolero

A lace bolero always adds class to any outfit... and is perfect for a spring evening. I came across this gorgeous ribbed lace bolero and cannot wait to make it myself. The pattern is pretty simple... just waiting to find that perfect wool.
