So this is the New Year?

Conforming to old standards and traditions is a past time of ours, and one of those traditions just happens to include New Years Resolutions.  "What's your New Years Resolution?" The gyms and weight loss quick fixes are profiting off of the millions of men and women who, year after year, pledge their weight loss resolutions without fail.  Who wouldn't feel obligated to lose weight after an influx of holidays feasts, as well as close and extended family scrutinizing your appearance.  The New Years Resolution is just another one of those vicious circles, just like my buying and consigning clothing circle.  But enough of my vices..

Can we talk about Scarlett Johansson in An American Rhapsody?

I saw this movie when I was 13, and again this afternoon.  Aside from being a horribly sad and true story about a family torn apart during communist Russia's rule over Hungary, I enjoyed it both times.  I fell in love with cute/semi-dressy 50's style of Scarlett's character, which I obviously overlooked at 13.  Admittedly I could watch her in anything and still love her so I suppose I'm biased.  The perfect up-dos, cuffed jeans, and bobby socks are just some of the lovely little 50's pieces that I adore.

Get the Look!
