Native Americans

Floresita had a beautiful post today about native americans & what that means to her. Some beautiful watercolors too. I love this girl's hair- this is not a traditional native american look but I think it's gorgeous.

Love In the time of... Hoop Skirts!

Oh man the colors in this picture are killing me... so pretty! Especially the red hoop skirt. What a genius way of inserting color into the picture that adds beauty but doesn't take away from the overall palette of the rest of it. Genius!

Love in the Time of Cholera

The designer of this movie, coming out next month, is Marit Allen. She has a varied work history including Mermaids, The Witches, Brokeback Mountain, and Scarlett (tv movie). The scenes here translate beautifully. This time period set in South America is one rarely seen in film, and the texture it affords us is incredibly rich.
