Holly Golightly's apartment

Did you hear that Holly Golightly's apartment is for sale? As in, the ever-loved character portrayed by Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's!

If only I lived in New York and had 5.85 million dollars...

Pop Culture: Elizabeth Taylor

I only ever wrote one "Pop Culture" post, but it seemed only fitting to reinstate the feature in light of yesterday's tragedy. I cannot believe Elizabeth Taylor passed away. She was a true Hollywood Icon and she will be dearly missed...

I'll never forget the first time I watched National Velvet...I wanted to be Velvet Brown.

Pop Culture: Alexis Bledel

I've decided to add another feature, entitled "Pop Culture". It may include pictures, quotes, blog-worthy gossip about celebrities ~ basically, whatever I feel like writing about ;)

Today's feature: Alexis Bledel

 
This 28 year old has so much potential. As a painfully shy 8 year old, her parents encouraged her to try community theater. Her courage grew, and she spent the majority of her high school years working as a model.

Since then, Alexis has blossomed as a model, eventually became and actress, and even tried her hand at producing.

She has the prettiest eyes ever!

Doesn't she make the cutest "Rosie the Riveter"?!

I love that Alexis hasn't tried to conform herself to Hollywood's typical idea of an early twenty woman. She remains classy, sophisticated, and beautiful ~ three qualities we should all aspire to have.

Although she is known for somewhat fluffy roles {i.e. her goody-two-shoes character, Rory, in "Gilmore Girls"}, I think she has the ability to become a well-respected actress.

Fun Fact: Her first language is Spanish; she learned English just by attending school with other English-speaking children in Houston, TX.
