Bears Don't Run Into Things

I ran into the edge of a door this morning and then I watched a series National Geographic was doing on baby black bears. You gotta take the bad with the super cute and adorable I guess...

Movie Muse = Jane Eyre

"You can't give half a sacrifice, you must give all."

This girl must have been the sole heir to all the pain and suffering in the world. Is it fair to call this movie happy depressing and on a side note I must mention that I've never loved the look of grass so much than in Jane Eyre. Maybe it's the dark tone of this film that makes it pop but for some reason the earth glows like emerald candy. It's not all candy colored grass and giggles. This one's not a happy tale. If you've heard anything of the stories of the Bronte family you'll know that, but it is quite sweet and a grand journey through ruffled sleeves, mean old ladies and tall strong handsome gentlemen. One of which being the lovely Jamie Bell... he's not THAT tall, but it still counts.

Circus Circus

If colors could make joy then there must be something about that red and white stripe that breeds happiness, wonder and on the very tense and dramatic occasion...fear. OMG don't fall don't fall don--- oh there's a net there, never mind. Circus = a happy place filled with mystery and excitement. Unless of course you're one of those people who hate clowns... then it's more like hell. :/

Movie Muse = Where The Wild Things...

"Happiness isn't always the best way to be happy."

Ok, who remembers the drama of sorts that occurred when this movie came out? Raise your hand... because I do! Basically what had happen' was pre release advertisements and an overwhelming amount of excitement from the blog/indie world caused a pit of failure to form in most peoples stomach when they went to finally see Where the Wild things Are in 09. I predicted this! Honestly I did. There's something about too much artificial hype in a movie that can really ruin it for most people. Everyone was making tents and craft and craziness! (Which I secretly loved.) But the movie's plot was very much undercover and it was pretty apparent that people were becoming aggressively excited over a movie that they knew nothing about plot wise. This is a rant...sorry, but it's only because I LOVED this film when I saw it back then and still to this day am on the verge of tears every time I watch it. Point being, don't get too involved with the hype yall! (pimp walks out of the room)

Movie Muse = The Craft

"Relax... it's only magic."

The Craft has always been a teenage angst favorite for me. It's a simple plot, high school outcasts get their deserved revenge on with some witchy wonders The funnest part about this movie though is Fairuza Balk playing crazy Nancy/playing herself/actual insanity. A year from now when Halloween rolls around again, remember this movie!

SDCC 2011 = Steam Punk Obsessed (6/6)

Ending the series on and obsession. Hope you all enjoyed!
If I blow $200 on a brass monocle I'm blaming Comic Con because I'm really really obsessed now after seeing all these great Steam Punk outfits. Granted it takes heaps of physical effort to walk around with all that leather and yes, you do end up looking like a Space Cowboy, but I don't care. Brown distressed leather corset with a detachable laser gun holster? Throw in a garter belt and sign me up lady!

If this peaked you're interest too here's some websites I found via the SDCC floor:

LeagendaryCostumeWorks.com

LeagueOfSteam.com

P.S. I have a layout planned for some prescription multi-lense goggles that I want to put around a brown bowler hat... if it happens, I'll post pictures. ;)
