Weekend Recap

This weekend was a movie filled, antique shoppin' rainy days full of bliss! So of course I had to see Alice in Wonderland... guh. Such a huge disappointment! I'm sorry but it's either a hit or miss for Tim Burton. The last great film he did was...hmm... Nightmare Before Christmas? Eessh. In my opinion they should of stayed true to the original book and they way It was told. None of this what would happen if Alice went back. Completely dumb. It wasn't even just the story, It was the CGI, the costumes, and Johnny Depp. I love him just as much as the next crazy girl out there, but I didn't understand why he was Scottish or why he sounded like Captain Jack Sparrow? OK.. seriously. I'm going to write a screen play on Lewis Carroll and his life and how the Alice stories came to be.

Well enough with that...

Matt and I went to a plethora of antique stores this weekend! We hit up Pasadena, Monrovia, and even went as far as Agoura Hills. He was looking for straight razors and I was looking for buttons, charms, brooches anything I could use for fancyThat. Poop Matt found only one razor.. :( haha.

However, I found a ton of stuff that I fell in love with!! AH! I cannot wait to own my own house! Soon I hope!

These stores were adorned with just about every thing I ever dreamed about! From shabby chic furniture, clothes, mirrors to amazing vintage books! I took some snap shots a long the way..

I love this vintage birdcage! Next tattoo...maybe..?

I'm obsessed with old mirrors!

storage is always great!

Twin chairs!! Adorable, and I love the little green ottoman.

My toddles will be in cute shabby chic clothes!

ah..love it!

Today what of been...

The Alice in Wonderland Premiere..but of course...it's in foggy London Town. All we (L.A) got was a lame press junket in Hollywood.. along with lame bands who for some reason are on the AIW soundtrack... If Lewis Caroll was around he'd freak out.The soundtrack alone gives me the feeling Tim Burton's version of AIW is going to be horrible.. I mean lets face it, Willy Wonka was horrible.. and I loved that movie. I'm not sure how people are going to take this movie, considering everyone is use to the Disney movie and not familiar with Lewis Caroll or his work... nor are people aware that Alice was a real person and that story was written for her and her sisters...eepp! I could write a noval about this..but I wont. :D Anyway..... SInce everyone and their mother is jumping on the bandwagon..I thought I'd blog about it. I have collect so many Lewis Caroll AIW books I could start my own library. I've played Alice in High School... one of my most exciting, well researched production I have ever been a part of.

So today is Officially Alice day..In my book any way. I pay homage to you Sir Lewis Caroll with a few of my favorite Alice things..

This is my arm, and I'm in love with it.
