I just wanted to share what I think is the most beautiful photo of that golden film era - Grace Kelly and Audrey Hepburn remain style icons, and the simplicity of this backstage shot highlights that (taken at the 28th Annual Academy Awards).
How incredible would it be to own a dress like that... maybe I won't skip the gown section next time I'm thrifting?
Also wanted to thank the lovely Katy of midnightintern for passing on more Happy 101 blog love to me. So now, I get to add another 10 things to my previous list of things that make me happy:
- Shooting stars
- Op-shopping
- Amazing up-and-coming everythings
- Sitting in non-awkward silence
- Feeling healthy (usually after swimming)
- Seafood
- Tea on rainy days
- Reminiscing
- Motivational speakers
- Finishing something I started
And here's more passing-ons: STOCKHOLM AND SOUTH, Coco & Zaahb, 10.17, Where the Wild Things Might Be, v i v i aa n, WASHINGMACHINE, To the Glamour Born, The Flowerchild Dwelling, Not So Naked, IDYLLE.
Monday tomorrow - sigh. How was everyone's weekend?
*love*

Stunning. But where would you wear it? If I bought one and you bought one we could wear them together 7,000 miles apart. It could be neat :)

Beautiful snapshot. ^-^
Glamorous in every way, shape and form. At least back then, dresses still held their modesty and women LOOKED and ACTED like women.

Oh Grace. That is such a beautiful gown. I would love to have the opportunity to not only own that but wear it at a place like that haha.
And I'm definitely checking out all those blogs you posted :) thanks for sharing.

I absolutely adore that dress. And I completely agree with non-awkward silences and tea on rainy days (particularly the former because silences so often tend to be awkward!)
Oh I just LOVE that photo!!
