1. Music. Having a favorite song to listen to as I'm working or sitting at Starbucks blogging or riding on the train to visit friends makes me endlessly happy. Current favorite (caught me by surprise) is Beyonce "If I Were A Boy." Interesting title and also weirdly familiar melody. Also loving Trans Siberian Christmas music, especially "Wizards in Winter."
2. Stationary. I can look at paper and notebooks and journals and the like all day long. I have accumulated countless journals and notebooks that stack my shelves and remain empty. But they're pretty. My current obsession is from my favorite stationer, Smythson. The fave item of the moment? This gorgeous lockable writing folder.
3. Movies. I am a movie fanatic. On the list of must sees for the holiday season, some fun, some serious... Bride Wars, The Boy In The Striped Pajamas, Four Christmases, The Curious Case of Benjamin Buttons, Yale v. Harvard 1927.
4. Food. We are currently lusting after The Little Owl in the West Village. While waiting for a table in the tiny, but adorable, 24 seat room, you can grab a seat in the perch and have a cocktail. I recommend the Le Petit Hiboux made with Lillet.
5. Shoes. No brainer obviously. Brand of choice? Need I answer? Christian Louboutin. This weeks "to die for" pair...
6. Wedding Gowns. I love them. They are gorgeous. I'll never stop oohing and ahhing over them. Thank goodness I still have my sister and couple of friends to go! Below a perhaps over-the-top offering from Chanel's Fall 08 collection. At least as the veil is concerned. But I see a gorgeous dress below the layers of tulle.
As per the rules, I am going to tag 5 of my favorite blogs to write their 6 things and let them know via a comment on their blog. Let's see what they have to say.
Pretty.Little.World
I Am Fashion
The Sartorialist
