Love me love me love me
Say you do
Let me fly away
With you
For my love is like
The wind
And wild is the wind
Give me more
Than one caress
Satisfy this
Hungriness
Let the wind
Blow through your heart
For wild is the wind
You...
Touch me...
I hear the sound
Of mandolins
You...
Kiss me...
With your kiss
My life begins
You're spring to me
All things
To me
Don't you know you're
Life itself
Like a leaf clings
To a tree
Oh my darling,
Cling to me
For we were creatures
Of the wind
And wild is the wind
So wild is the wind

The words are lyrics from Wild is the Wind, a lovely little song you might have heard if you've seen the trailer for Revolutionary Road.
Also, the wonderful Susanna-Cole gave me this card. It's so pretty, I just had to share it with you.
Okay, I know that the whole world knows about Lula Magazine, but the most recent issue was my first (a year after their debut, I know-I'm way behind the times). I had listened to people rave about Lula for months, and I had to see what the fuss was all about. I have to say, the fuss is much deserved. I loved everything about the magazine, from the thick, glossy paper to the dreamy photographs, beautiful drawings, and interesting articles. I had planned to tear the photographs from the magazine for wall decoration, but I found that I couldn't. It felt sacreligious to tear anything out of something so much like a book, something so visually stunning. Instead, it sits beside my bed for perusal before I go to sleep. I know it will bring me only the sweetest of dreams.
By the way, I need you guys' personal opinion. Do you like my blog better with the silvery-grayish background, or just plain white? I can't decide!
Finally, yesterday, I saw Valentin. It's an Argentine film and one of my personal favorite foreign films. Click here to read the synopsis. I am not going to link a trailer to this post because I personally think the trailer is quite frankly awful. If you see the trailer, it will make you not want to see the film, so please don't view the trailer. And if you've already seen it, feel free to leave a comment about your opinion.
Wow! That was a lot of writing!

i like it in plain white better, but Gray is just as fine too! That film seems quite interesting! thx for sharing such a lovely post
beautiful words and pictures
hope you had an amazing christmas
xx
amazing set, i want every one x
These pictures are lovely but mainly i am just lusting after the dresses.
The pictures are beautiful and I love the clothes in them. I like the grey background.
THANKS, M. :)
I am the same way, I walked out twice with tears in my eyes. Every dog just looks at you so hopefully. It is so hard to deal with. If I could, I would get them all. Every single one. The cats too! ♥
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year for 2O09! xx
Gorgeous photos. I fell in love with the fairy like quality of it all.
Gorgeous pictures! I think I like the silvery gray background better :)
I've never heard of the film! I'll have to watch it! And because you said so, I won't watch the trailer.
Lovely blog!
xoxoxo,
Eve
LOVE the photos in this post. my favorites yet. i stole a few for my blog... i'll be sure to say where i got them! and i also love lula magazine, but they should make a cheaper, less book-like version to tear up. i tear magazines to bits for the sake of decoration!
xx

The photos are so soft and serene..
I prefer the grey background because too many people have white!

I can't bare to tear pages out of Lula either. Your blog reminds me of its dreamy and magical qualities. I love rock n' roll but I also love to day dream.
What are the names of the songs on your page? My mother identified it as Debussy but hasn't found her sheet music for the piece yet.
Gosh! I love those pictures - and the dresses are gorgeous too!! I tried to pick a fave but failed miserably!
I say, all of the pictures are stunning! I can't possibly choose. I love this Cat Power song too!
Oh, and Memoirs of a Geisha soundtrack playing??! WIN! I love that book/movie/soundtrack/everything.
I've pretty much saved every single one of those pictures on my computer, because they are too lovely to look at just once.
(:
i like the greyish backround
and i loveee your blog! the pictures you shared were also all gorgeouss
personally, i prefer the white background.. i just think it looks better with the kind of photos you post =)
and iyeas, lula is an amazing magazine but sometimes it gets a little freaky for my liking.
i hope you have a great weekend.
♥sb
Inspiring. Especially the flapper-ish feather headbands.
Hope you had a fab christmas.

I like the gray more I think
and thank you for the loveley comment about my dress!
I hope you had a wonderful christmass
PS I lalalalove Lula Magazine!
amazing photos, love them.
Another gorgeous post, I love it! And I was just wondering - was the quote from a few posts back, "I can't trust my heart, because it belongs to you," from somewhere else or is it your own? xx
Pixie July: Yes, that was my own writing. I post both my own writing and others that I find inspiring. When I post something that is not mine, I always site the source. Hope that helps!

These pics are kinda magic and so inspiring!

i really love the mix from poems and photos. dead brilliant.
That's one of my all time favourites, sang by nina simone gives me goosebumps :)
P.S. I like white better.
P.P.S. to someone asking for the songs - when you click on get tracks, under the player, it takes you to the playlist...

I think the silvery color might be cool to try! I love the picture of the brown-haired girl in the black dress standing to the right side of the frame.
Also, I've given you a little award, check it out on my blog! You might have it already, I don't know...
omg, gorgeous first and third pictures!
Beautiful photos!!! I love it so much: D

Lovely entry! I'd say stick with the white (which it seems, that you have). It gives all focus, to your writings and the photos.
Hmmmm,I think I prefer the silvery background to the white, just because I am partial to that colour :) lovely site, I am glad to have stumbled upon it...much love and blessings for the coming New Year from afar...xo ~M
