Today is July 3rd, which would've been the 136th anniversary of Franz Kafka's birth. I'm currently reading a book of his short stories, therefore the occasion is quite appropriate. Also, I've made a collage with some photos that speak kafkaesque to me (to myself personally, at least), some of which are inspired by his works,… Continue reading Kafka’s Literary Birthday
How Would It Feel To Lead a Vintage Lifestyle?
This is something I've often thought about: ditching modern technology and the rush of 21st century life and pretending to have stepped out of the mid-20th century. Okay, I wouldn't actually be that dramatic, but you get the idea. The idea of living a vintage lifestyle - or at least something close to it, as… Continue reading How Would It Feel To Lead a Vintage Lifestyle?
The #ClassicMovieTag
Last week I've seen a classic movie tag originally posted by Out of the Past and felt the instant urge to answer it myself. However, as my obligations didn't allow me to do it earlier, I'm doing this post only now. 😛 Let's begin! What's one classic movie that you recommend to people over and… Continue reading The #ClassicMovieTag
Movie Review: Love in the Afternoon
I kind of kept postponing writing this review for days. I don't know why, since I LOVED the movie and watching it instantly sparked the idea of writing a review. However, now that we're here, I want to share the magic and bliss of this wonderful Billy Wilder film. Starring Audrey Hepburn, Gary Cooper and… Continue reading Movie Review: Love in the Afternoon
Audrey Hepburn’s 90th Birthday
It's April 4th 2019, a 90-year-jubilee of the birth of Audrey Hepburn, one of the most kind-hearted human beings I know about. Sadly, she's not with us anymore, but that doesn't mean her fans and admirers won't honor her on this day. I decided to make a little question tag (is that what they're called?)… Continue reading Audrey Hepburn’s 90th Birthday
Postcards from Switzerland
A few days ago I returned from a trip to Zurich, and kind of decided that I could write a sort of "trip diary" to sum up my impressions of the city. I was, in fact, visiting my relatives there together with my family, and what I can say is that Zurich is indeed a… Continue reading Postcards from Switzerland
My April Moodboard
Those moodboards are more of a messy brainstorming ideas than actual fashion moodboards, which I intended them to be. However, I think they reflect my current mood quite nicely: these days I'm mostly about vintage vibes, especially the 1940s (for some reason), nicely done hair, bobby pins, lace collars and modest-looking dresses. For some time… Continue reading My April Moodboard
Bits of Inspiration (aka A Pile of Randomness)
I haven't had time (although I did have motivation) to write any posts recently, so I decided that a nice list of some of my recent finds would be neat. Now, all of these photos are from Pinterest, my main source of inspiration on the internet. Enjoy! <img src="https://heresbookingatyoukid.home.blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/dfc52fc0d2f562facc817da0e217f730-1.jpg" alt="<br>Always. <br>Always. Books do not snore.… Continue reading Bits of Inspiration (aka A Pile of Randomness)
Anthony Perkins’ Birthday And a Movie Review
Today we celebrate what would have been Anthony Perkins' 87th birthday and I'm happy to say that I honored him how he deserves, by watching one of his movies (whose review is also included in this post)! I have to admit that I'm quite new to the Tony Perkins fandom - if there's such a… Continue reading Anthony Perkins’ Birthday And a Movie Review
Some Literary Female Characters That I Like
So, this post was intended to be titled "My favorite female literary characters", but that sounded too ambitious, especially because I do not feel like writing a serious, well-thought-out blogpost right now. So, here it is - a light-hearted, brainstormed list of some of my dearest book characters. Also, as much as I love reading,… Continue reading Some Literary Female Characters That I Like
