I’ll See This

Roller skates, Maeby and Kristen Wiig?  I’m in.

I’m Not Really a “Fashionista”

But I do work in magazines and I’m soooo excited for The September Issue, which is a documentary of Anna Wintour, editor of Vogue.  The September issue is usually the biggest issue in terms of Ad sales for all magazines, but Vogue‘s is always the biggest, last year’s came in at a whopping 972 pages.  Working on the publishing side, I see all that goes into getting ads for September, which means the edit side must be even more hectic because they have to produce a book that’s worth reading…if you can find the edit between all the ad pages.

Anyway, as someone who would love to look as fashionable as the models in Vogue and the girls who work there, I’m really looking forward to the movie.  They seem to go behind the scenes, really talk to Anna, who appears to be exactly how Meryll Streep portrayed her in The Devil Wears Prada.  At one point in the preview she says, “This type is so large and pretentious. It looks like it’s for blind people.”  I mean, come on.  How can this not be amazing?

Daily Crush

The crush on Jo-Go started when he appeared in 10 Things I Hated About You.  He was under the radar for a while but now he’s back in what I hope to be a great RomCom of the summer, aptly titled 500 Days of Summer. I mean, it has Zooey Deschanel.  How can it not be awesome?

Sometimes You Need a Good Cry

I’ve been known to have a heart of stone.  I didn’t cry in The Notebook and I’m not even moved at that Scottish lady singing in that youtube video thing going around.  However, I couldn’t shut off the water works when I read My Sister’s Keeper by Jodi Picoult.  Tears were streaming down my face like effing Niagra Falls. I got some odd looks from people at Starbucks. Well, turns out I’ll be crying like a baby soon because it’s coming out as a movie this fall.  I saw the trailer today and I had to do everything in my power not to start heaving in sobs.  Watch and judge for yourself.
