*A Few Beautiful Things*

I think Glee’s Dianna Agron is the most stylish & elegant one in the whole bunch. She proves it in October’s Vanity Fair (on stands next Tuesday). Plus, in case you haven’t seen: she has a beautiful blog filled with fashion and photos called *Down the Rabbit Hole* As I understand, the other title “Dianna Agron, But You Can Call Me Charlie” came about because Charlie was her male alter-ego and the star of short stories she’d wrote in high school. (You can also follow her on twitter.)

The other day, I saw this part of this gorgeous shoot done for JCrew by the cast of the Romantics here, and I just had to file away some of these shots! I’m pretty sure I need every single thing those girls are wearing. Not to mention, as a general statement, how freakishly stylish is Katie Holmes?! I mean really…

I think Real Simple could have done themselves a service using someone like her in this shoot; this model doesn’t seem to be able to pull off these looks as well as she should. But I have to say, I do *love* the makeup and the clothing! (courtesy of new fashion editor Victoria Sanchez-Lincoln) I don’t know what it is with me and blends with mohair lately but I’m pretty in love with that green coat!

*Have a happy Wednesday!*

*Random per the Usual…*

2 random Blog-keeping notes:

1.)  The 1st time you leave a comment on B’s Wig Shoppe, there may be a short delay before it shows up. A lot of spammers have come along with this move to WordPress, and we’re trying to keep those at bay.

2.)  Something prompted me to redo my “hello” page. If you want to know more about me & my blog go read this page.

Finally, I thought I should share this clip because the song has been in my head all day. Did you know that today would have been Fred MacMurray’s 102nd? If you didn’t know, you should get on the ball for 2 reasons: #1 The Happiest Millionaire is my all-time *favorite* movie and #2 Fred MacMurray obviously was the ultimate gentleman to have at a party. He could sing, he could dance, he could box, he had pet alligators and he could do anything while smoking a big, fat cigar. That’s pretty awesome!

I couldn’t resist. Just a little wisdom from one of the South’s greatest philosophers…

*Back to School :: Anthropologie*

From the moment I saw a catalog, I have been madly in love with the beautiful fabrics and girly details that Anthropologie chooses. The vibrant colors & feminine trims from this Fall’s line are no exception! And, incidentally, how much do you just *love* these dishes…

*What’s my Line?*

Oh please, honey! One of my *most* favorite me of all time plus those panelists, the eye masks, the pearls, the bow ties! It’s all too much…

Also, in case you’re interested. Click here for the article that John Daly mentions called My Dad, Walt Disney, written by Walt’s daughter Diane and published in November 17, 1956 issue of The Saturday Evening Post.

… 1

Love the new arrivals at Billy Reid! I was already planning on sewing a puff skirt like this one (above) this week with my brand-spanking new sewing machine but now it is a definite must! Below are 3 of my most favorite picks but, as you know, I love Billy Reid in general… the clothes, the design, the storefronts so be sure to check out all of the new arrivals here.

… 2

I was so excited to see the last piece ever done by  Alexander McQueen in the  latest T Magazine! It’s angelic!

… 3

If you love the blog design.work.life, I highly recommend checking out Courtney’s Pinterest site. It’s like an online inspiration catalog… so beautiful! I especially liked this inspiration board…

… 4

Considering we live in a DIY culture climate and with people like Alice Waters receiving so much fame for her Edible Schoolyard program, I have to hope that a similar idea called the Make Something School will soon have just as big of an impact!

… 5

I *love* the beautiful video that accompanies Ralph Lauren’s Fall kids’ collection! It’s narrated by Harry Connick, Jr. & has the most beautiful water color palette to surround the children! Totally worth bopping over to the site whether you have kids or not!

*Tom Ford + the Raven*

Generally speaking, I am not a fan of Tom Ford’s ad campaigns. However, I am sort of in love with the newest batch for his Fall 2010 eyewear collection!

…Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore,
“Though thy crest be shorn and shaven thou,” I said, “art sure no craven,
Ghastly, grim, and ancient raven, wandering from the nightly shore.
Tell me what the lordly name is on the Night’s Plutonian shore.”
Quoth the raven, “Nevermore”…



They put me in a very Hitchcock state of mind…
