mood - sleepy. best thing about this weekend - my rainy saturday morning spent sipping tea & listening to radio interviews. what i’m reading - just finished my summer of love. suggestions on something new? what i’m watching - foxes the film, youtube videos & it’s on with alexa chung. make-up lust - mac strobe cream. listening to - la roux, lissy trullie, sébastien tellier, white lies, the virgins. favourite recent purchase - sophomore tee. what i’m looking forward to this week - finding august’s issue of interview in my post box. i want - august’s issue of interview. aim for tomorrow - get august’s issue of interview.

Hey rad blog!
as for a great read, Marcel Proust's: A collection of Short Stories is poetic genius. It's about France's social elite circa 19th century. If you want something dramatic and serious, an autobiography is great, try Infidel by Ayaan Hirsi Ali. If you want a well-rounded book with humour and more, read A Prayer for Owen Meaney. Hope that helps girl!

sincerely,
S

thanks everyone for your lovely suggestions, i wont need a new book now for ages!

jayne - i have that one! a mate gave it to me for my bday last year & i have yet to read it. i didnt know it inspired the royal tenenbaums! i think it wins, if only just because of that!

K - i had only ever sat through one entire episode of it's on & was really only tuning in on monday for la roux! they fucking killed it too! love them so much. & yes sienna was most adorable giving alexa that little peck on the cheek. it was so nice to see so many brits on american telly, yeah?

jess - ohmygoodnes! you must read it. it is my favourite book ever. helen cross inspires & influences me so much with her writing. it is amazing. also check out the movie if you havent already done so. its my favourite as well, naturally.

vi from cali - haa, i dont want it as much for the cover as i want it for this & for elly : http://www.interviewmagazine.com/music/brit-pop-girls/
