Anticipation - My Week With Marilyn.

Having always loved Marilyn Monroe, something that has never been a secret, I am super excited for the release of 'My Week with Marilyn'. Everything about it looks incredible, especially the casting of Michelle Williams as the Hollywood Legend. She looks beautiful in all of the stills I have seen so far and I am counting the days until I get to see it as I have no doubt that I will love it.

"I want to know you moved and breathed in the same world with me." - F. Scott Fitzgerald.

“Once upon a time there was a boy who loved a girl, and her laughter was a question he wanted to spend his whole life answering.”

-Nicole Krauss, The History of Love.

“Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.”

-George Bernard Shaw.

“Two people in love, alone, isolated from the world, that's beautiful.”

- Milan Kundera.

“The real lover is the man who can thrill you by kissing your forehead or smiling into your eyes or just staring into space.”

- Marilyn Monroe.

“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.”

-Pablo Neruda, 1oo Love Sonnets: Cien sonetos de amor.

"Just Because You're Naked Doesn't Mean You're Sexy."

I like it when something happens that gives me the confidence to feel sexy. It usually happens on a night out, when I have the chance to get all dressed up and enjoy myself. I am someone, though, who likes to dress up for me, and not for others. I decided, by way of procrastination, to make a list of things that I think, and make me feel, sexy.

Here's what I have so far:
high heels, pencil skirts, eye liner, red lipstick, soft skin after exfoliating, anything scented with cocoa butter, painted nails, well fitted jeans, that smile from that someone, even when I'm not wearing make-up, new underwear and than, of course, one of my favourites -

Then I decided to add this quote by Dita Von Teese who, as the picture above proves, knows how to look sexy even all covered up:

"I love it when you can go about your daily business with the knowledge that you have a little secret of your own on underneath" (referring to her stunning lingerie she wears everyday-just to make herself feel better. Great idea!)
