Pretty Shirts

Guys spend on dress shirts and suits to look smart, while girls spend it on shirts that are not neccessarily the most practical things in the world, but are definitely the prettiest.
I adore these two from Chloe. The white pleated one is great for the day time, but I especially adore the silk one, which looks so classy. They have it in many other colors too and they ALL look fab I hard a hard time just choosing one!
Vanessa Bruno also makes gorgeous pretty tops. The light blue one with the pretty butterfly sleeves is perfect for a casual day out and the vibrant electric blue one on the left is a Harrods Girl favourite.


For oodles of details, frills and layers, there are these two Grecian top from Anna Sui and Emilio Pucci, which is both elegant and fun.
And these two black and white ones from Paul & Joe and Marc by MJ. Although I must say, this Marc by MJ one does not work for everyone.
A little simpler but just as beautiful, there are these two from Bellekat and Development.

For something a little edgier, these two from Zac Posen and Sass & Bide are just the thing.

Pretty things are imminently impossibly delicate as well. These two from Anna Sui and Robert Rodriguez are a perfect example of that.

Oh and they are almost always amazingly expensive too for something with so little fabric. But they are all just oh-so-gorgeous!

Pirates of the Caribbean II

It took them a while to come out over here in the cinema, but I finally managed to see it. And boy am I glad I did. With all the excitement, action and adventure, this is definitely a movie to be watched on the big screen.
The thing I loved most about this movie (besides the very hot Orli of course) is the fact that it doesn't even feel like a sequel (which is good because sequels are almost always worse). It feels more like a natural continuation of the first movie. It continues to be exciting, scary and incredibly funny at the same time.
This time the adventure takes us to Davy Jones, who is a very slimy human/sea creature that dominates the sea with even more slimy and skeletal looking minions. One of whom is Will's dad. So the reunion is all very touching. They set out to defeat Davy Jones and ends the movie with a cliff hanger!
As usual, Orli was hot and Johnny Depp was an incredible actor. He's just SOOOO funny and comedic. I love him. And isn't that make-up amazing? I can hardly recognize the Johnny Depp in Captain Jack Sparrow!

Of course there is the ever gorgeous Elizabeth Swann. She's quite the devious fighter in this movie. And is it just me, or does her face look rounder than before? Less gaunt? But either way, she looks fabulous.

Overall, I LOVE this movie and if you haven't already, you must all go see it!
