Forever iconic. This movie has everything—Bette Davis, homoerotic obsession, a scene-stealing cameo from a little-known up-and-coming actress named Marilyn Monroe…
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!! i have been trying to get more into old films and doing a run of Henry Fonda flicks (love this man). this movie ROCKS. incredibly funny, it's film about yearning and doppelgangers and falling in love. Henry Fonda and Barbara Stanwyck are two of the most beautiful people ever to be put on a screen. Also just incredibly well directed, it's one of the best-shot movies I've seen. It's a perfect Valentine's Day movie!!
costuming 10/10, plus marilyn, music, and surprisingly progressive undertones. honestly a cultural touchstone in so many ways (i also recommend some like it hot, not in color but still very good)
Libby is and forever will be THAT GIRL and I recently discovered you can subscribe to basically any magazine via the newsstand feature. I am really enjoying flipping through NYmag and trashy celeb mags like Us Weekly on my phone—it feels like all the guilty pleasure of scrolling though social media but infinitely more fun and less draining. I also like reading food mags and the New Yorker!
I went to the Korean spa for the first time with my bestie last night and it was a profoundly nourishing experience on every level. we were having deep heart to hearts while schvitzing it out in the sauna and it felt like my soul was being cleansed. there are these tubs of different temperatures and this basin full of mugwort water with empty bowls so you can pour it over yourself, and all these magical heated rooms with different scents and properties. I also saw people carrying giant bottles of spa water with chopped mango and mint and they were like $20 each but they looked sooo good. next time I also want to go to the Korean restaurant inside and the tea room.
