Notebook pages

Here are my latest finds and news from film, style, fashion, photography and beautiful living.

It barely looks like autumn outside as we’re having an Indian summer, which makes me very happy. However, I’m in a veritable autumn mood today and this beautiful photography reflects just that.

• Do you give your shoe shining the proper attention? Because it’s an art.
• A new V&A Museum exhibition, Hollywood Costume, over 100 of the most iconic and unforgettable film characters from a century of Hollywood filmmaking, 1912–2012; running from 20 October 2012 to 27 January 2013.
• “Beauty is for all of us”: a brief encounter with Isabella Rossellini
• Essentially British: love this Hackett AW 2012 collection video (click on video)
• In case you’ve missed my feature on Trust Your Style, where I share my latest fall wardrobe obsession while channeling a men’s inspired look, one of my signature styles
• Don’t forget to enter my giveaway, The Sartorialist: Closer

    I loved that shoe shining video. I used to take so good care of my shoes; I would lay newspapers on the floor and really give them a good treatment but I haven’t done that in years. My poor shoes! Loved that Hackett video too.
    Lovely links as always, Ada. That Hollywood costume exhibition looks really intriguing. And thanks for including my photo in your beautiful Notebook pages post.

    Love these images… that merc image with leaves scattered all over the floor is the perfect fall shot. I am most gutted about not seeing the Hollywood costume exhib at the V&A, I’ll be back in Greece by then! 🙁

    That brief encounter with Isabella Rossellini made me smile – I just adore her – remember Blue Velvet? Loved the shoe shining video too. Thanks for sharing Ada:)x

    Thank you for the mention, Ada! I really appreciate it. Will be checking the links over weekend – it’s been a bit busy over here lately and I can’t wait to get to tomorrow (day off) and relax.

    That article with Isabella Rossellini went straight to my heart because I am afraid of getting old. But that’s another story;). I would so much enjoy visit the Hollywood costume exhibition, Ada, I really understand your passion for old movies fashion, it says so much about the character, actually the character would not be the same without those great people that design their clothes. Lovely photos, as usual 😉
