i love when i love a movie…

by Nina on December 27, 2008

Run out and buy this movie today… I loved it. Loved everything about it. No suspense, no murder… just four friends, real-life, friendship, relationships and a lesson about finding yourself and going after your dreams. Plus, it’s worth $19.99 just to see Annette Bening’s clothes and fab-u-lous accessories!!


Just to give you a sneak peek… I think I might actually think seriously about selling an internal organ for a Hermès {handbag in picture above}… I mean I only need one kidney, right? How much do you think kidneys are going for these days? {Just kidding} And, yes, that is a Burberry leash on the dog!

After watching the movie, I’ve come to the conclusion that I think I am going to be a frighteningly-wonderful mix between Sylvie Fowler & Mary Haines when I’m finally finished with my 20s! Or at least I hope to be. {Have you figured out by now that I’m not a huge fan of the 20s?}

If I haven’t sold you yet… here is the trailer to give you a little taste…


Here is the music video from the song in the trailer. I was so glad when I heard it on the soundtrack because I love this song! I know… probably late {again} on this too… if you haven’t figured it out by now, I’m the farthest thing from a music buff.

It’s storming here so I’m going to put on my wellies, grab an umbrella and grin and bear the bad weather for some chips, dip and time with friends over at the House of Rose!

I haven’t seen this movie yet. I wanted to see it but my stepmother said she wasn’t a fan. I’ll definitely have to rent it now, though!

I love Meg’s hair in the movie!

I cannot wait to see this movie. I wanted to see it when it was out at the theater, but never got around to it. I must run to Target and buy it!

I watched this on the plane on my way to Thailand. I liked that you never met her husband–it was all about the ladies!

Must comment on the bag–my sister who lives here in Cambodia bought a Hermes Birkin bag for $3 at a market! It is on ebay for $7000! Time to cash in on that! I can’t even stand her luck!

Hermes bag update…it was a fake! Duh, right? Like someone would ever part with one! Sad thing is the fake one sells for more than I would ever pay for a bag.

I saw this opening weekend, and the hubs got it for me for Christmas, I absolutely ADORE it! Everything about it! Just wish I had friends such as those, I, also, am not a fan of my 20s…but alas, I have a bit to go! Perhaps they will grow on me? Doubt…I am 72 at heart! LOL! You MUST see the original from 1939 with Joan Crawford! Just delightful!

Glad to her “The Women” was good. I’ve been wanting to see it as it was filmed in the Boston area where I live.

I watched “The Women” on PPV last Friday night. LOVED it! I was soooo inspired at the end of the movie. I came away wanting a spa trip, a Hermes bag and a puppy.
