Here are my latest finds and news from style, fashion, film, design, photography and beautiful living.
“I’m probably more personal when I’m acting than at any other time. More open, more direct. Because it allows me to be something that I can’t always feel comfortable with when I’m living my own life, you know? Because it’s make-believe.” Philip Seymour Hoffman
• I enjoyed reading this interview with Wim Wenders, on his film-making style, America as a great source of inspiration for his movies and his favourite childhood books (among my favourites as well).
• Network
• Another beautiful photo shoot by Ditte Isager: simplicity, natural beauty, a way of living.
• Always a go-to outfit: black and navy.
• These pendant lights add a nice finishing touch to an already elegant bathroom.
• A great styling idea: DIY magazine holder.

That photo of PSH is just too much, what a facial expression! I’m still sad after hearing the news … such a talent … gone too soon.
I’m trying to remember if I have already seen Network. Wouldn’t I remember it if I had?
Yes, this photo is haunting. I still can’t believe he’s gone. The world has lost one of its greatest talents. I’m sure you would remember if you had seen Network. You should, by the way, I know you’ll find it interesting.
when i heard that PSH died i just had these few moments where i just wished it wasn’t true, that there had to be some mistake. so incredibly sad. he was by far one of my favorite actors, really of all time, but especially in the last decade. and he has three children, we lost a great entertainer and they lost their father and for some reason, i picture him as being a really wonderful father. absolutely heartbreaking.
It’s heartbreaking, Christine, I know, when you think that he left behind three small children, and when you think what a great actor the world has lost. As Mary Jo says, it feels unreal. It always does when someone passes away suddenly, before their time.
Beautiful links Ada. Wow, Network–that takes me back! All the kids in high school used to do satires of it: I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it any more. It was like an anthem for everyone for awhile, ha! As for PSH, I don’t think I’ve even processed it, it feels unreal.
