The Glitz of The Great Gatsby
“I hope she’ll be a fool – that’s the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool.” -Daisy Buchanan, The Great Gatsby “I knew it was a great mistake for a man like me to fall in love…” -Jay Gatsby, The Great Gatsby Photo Source: Rotten Tomatoes The grandeur of The Great Gatsby is captured beautifully by director Baz Luhrmann, with all the glitz and glam of an era where there was a stark contrast between elegance and poverty.

Kiss Me, I'm Irish!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! I hope you are wearing green today, because if you’re not, then someone can pinch you… Or if you’re wearing green, you can expect someone to kiss you because you are Irish… Or something like that.

In looking forward to Spring, I’m looking forward to the yumminess of fresh salads and tasty beverages. […]

I dream of wearing designer clothes, and rubbing shoulders, elbows, and knees with celebrities, magazine editors, and designers.
