A Case for Mara

Actress Rooney Mara was recently announced by Apple to play the famous Old Hollywood actress Audrey Hepburn in their biopic of the actress's life. Surely Mara, an Academy award nominated actress, has proved that she has the acting ability to play such an iconic figure in both film history and pop culture. However, the internet [...]

Just TEN Films From The 1940s

This was a hard list to make. The 40s are my absolute favorite decade in film, and there was no way I could only list five (like our previous post; Quarantined? I Gotchu – Here Are My Five Favourite Films From The 1930s). So, with great deliberation aided with the process of elimination, I present [...]

Fashion in Film – The Style of Jenny Cavilleri

First of all, yes I bawled like a baby. Love Story is an iconic film about two young people falling in love, and the obstacles that come their way.

But this season brought light to another Dior bag - the saddle bag, introduced in the brand's 2000 Spring Summer Collection. It started of as an instagram trend, with influencers popping up everywhere with the Dior [...]

How Prada brought the Headband back.

If a single brand can be given credit for reintroducing an accessory that I thought I wouldn't even touch after leaving school, let alone wear, it would be Prada. Prada first introduced their thick, almost tiara-like headbands in September for their Spring/Summer 2019 collection and honestly, I didn't give them much thought. With my curly [...]
