Bardot does Chaplin

Brigitte Bardot is photographed on break from filming Viva Maria! in Mexico 1965. According to Willi Frischauer's biography on the star, Bardot: an Intimate Biography, Bardot would perform splendid impersonations of the legendary Charlie Chaplin in order to pass the long months on the hot Mexico set, despite never seeing a Chaplin film. These are several photos from the rarely-seen shoot.

Ten Things I Love About Winter

1. Sending out thank-you notes from the holidays.

2. Playing in the snow, especially building a snowman.


3. Lounging all day in a warm bed.

4. Having really great bed hair. And knowing that a knitted hat on top your head is so much better than brushing your hair.

5. Being all bundled up in your wintertime finest.

6. Catching up on the greatest show of our generation.

7. Wandering through the snow alone with nothing but headphones and some music to listen to.

8. Renewed inspiration.

9. Coming home.

10. Falling in love with storybooks again.

Celebrity Hair Style Alicia Silverstone

Alicia Silverstone hairstyles have varied throughout the years from being blonde to a fiery red brunette. It does not matter what color Alicia's hair is, she is always stylish with simple half up styles as well as tight curls, soft waves and blunt cut edges to complete her greatest hairstyles. Alicia's hair speaks simplicity but creates wonders when she sports them.

You are sure to have a "crush" on this star when you see her in this beautifully angle layered hairstyle that create subtle waves. Her hair is kept to medium length while one side is swept gently to the back while the other side is left falling to her shoulders, giving her a very playful look.

the big bang theory

I don't know if it's because of too many late night viewings of (500) Days of Summer, or if it's because of these recently released pictures from InStyle, but my desire to have choppy fantastic fringe has come back full force. Not to say I'm completely against a naked forehead, but I can deny that a girl with blunt bangs and painted eyes looks utterly gorgeous.
Here are some photos of girls from yesterday and today:

Penelope Tree, the epitome of blunt bangs and painted eyes


"Why yes, Pattie, your hair does look fab..."
