pretty nice picnic with Sabrina


The Hollywood Forever Cemetery began it's summer season of hosting films on Saturday.  It's the first time I've ever attended but it won't be the last...

Arriving before sunset we set up our little picnic on  the grass.  Wine and little nibbles of puff pastry with mini cupcakes to finish, it was so much fun.  The crowd seems huge and everyone is caught up in their own little world.  Social, but not too social...just what I enjoy.  Add in my all time favorite Audrey Hepburn movie and I was one happy camper.  



Walking in to the cemetery was a really unique experience.  I've never in my life seen or imagined graves like these.  As it gets darker, it's very peaceful and not at all creepy (although I imagine that when they are showing a scary movie that it could be a different experience all together).  There was a little chill in the air that evening, but my blanket kept me cozy and there was something about seeing the film with all those people that made it so enjoyable.  I came to the realization on the way home that I really like the love stories that older movies tell.  Sabrina, and The Thrill of a Romance are two of my most loved love stories.  Oh the simpler times!

I would so highly recommend this as an outing should you find yourself in LA. For more info check out:  Cinespia

pretty tutorial on a breakfast at tiffany's look ♥

I love Breakfast at Tiffany's, the book (Truman Capote is one of my all time favorite authors), the movie (how could you not like something with Audrey Hepburn), and even that song from the 90s (don't remember who sang it though).  Anyway if I shared this right it should be a tutorial on how to achieve the makeup look that Audrey sported.  I enjoy the tutor's accent in this so much that I even subscribed to her youtube channel... Enjoy! (note: it's about 10mins long)
