I really like Gwyneth Paltrow: she is talented, beautiful and sends fun emails.  This picture is too fantastic to be.

Bonjour Tristesse

Apr 09
2010

Just finished reading Bonjour tristesse by Françoise Sagan and when I saw this tank top by Wren, I thought it embodied the book perfectly. The book is about la dolce vita in Sagan’s conception: luxury, idleness, sensuality and summer vacation in a villa in the south of France in the mid-1950s.  And this is certainly the perfect top for all of those things.

(In English version if you’re interested – it’s got a fabulous cover!)

An Insomniac’s Journal

Well, it seems that someone has created a product with someone like me in mind! I have been an on-and-off insomniac for most of my life. I totally agree that the best thing to do when you can’t sleep is to do be productive: read a book, reflect.. . and write in a journal such as this “I Can’t Sleep” journal!

Penguin Classics has teamed up with Project (RED) to create these special edition covers. I like how a memorable sentence in each book is turned into cover art.  As with other Project (RED) collaborations, a part of the proceeds goes to fight AIDS in Africa.
