It’s that time of year again: the Cannes Film Festival. One of my favourite times of year, that always casts a spell on me, not only because I will enjoy almost two weeks of red carpet glamour and film awards, but also because I see the festival as a foretoken of summer. Three things that are more than enough to make me happy. I have been saving this stunning first photo of Jennifer Connelly shot by Mario Testino to welcome summer with, but I think this Cannes inspired post deserves it even more.

I love finding out what’s happening at Cannes (red carpet & screenings) and look forwards to this year’s offerings. That first image of Jennifer Connelly is absolutely Luscious! Hope you’re having a great start to your Thursday:)x
I was so much in the mood for this, I’m glad to used that first photo in your today’s post, it fits perfectly.
Happy Cannes!
Back in the day, my writing partner thought Jennifer Connelly was the most beautiful woman in the world and I think she still might be–that photo is ravishing. I love this time of the year too–the tease of summer just around the corner.

I’ve always loved that Vogue editorial so much! This photo and the other one, where she is wearing a stripey jumper are my favourite ones. I have a feeling anyone and everyone who is a tiny bit famous is now in Cannes right now.
Hope you are enjoying your day!

Ah! The elusive summer is finally here! Eva Green is a firm favourite of mine so of course I just adore that picture of her!
I get so excited for Cannes too! I always dream of getting transported there to take all the magic of the festival in. Gorgeous images, Ada! xoxo
Those white shoes at the bottom look so chic!
I do love the dramatic flair of the Cannes red carpet and it’s always exciting to hear about the great films winning awards there. That photo of Eva Green is stunning!
