First time in a long while where I haven't done my morning walk by 8 am. I woke up really early this morning, and since dawn had not even broke, I decided to watch a movie instead - The Thomas Crown Affair with Pierce Bronson (Thomas Crown) and Renee Russo (Catherine Banning.)
As much as I love early morning walks, it was nice to curl up on the couch with my warm blanket, and watch a movie. Even though the movie is twelve years old, I absolutely love the clothes Catherine wears in the movie - the tailoring is so classic - she was absolutely stunning in every scene. Curious to see who designed the clothes for Renee Russo's character, I laughed when I saw it was Michael Kors.
Last night, Madeline decided she wanted to take her brothers out to dinner at the restaurant where she works. Ben is up north on his annual salmon fishing trip, so I was faced with finding something to do. A safe haven for me is the bookstore. As I wandered in the aisles, unable to focus, I remembered I wanted to see if Ulta carried Michale Kor's perfume. I wanted to try something different, my favorite perfume is Estee Lauder Pleasures Bloom, but sure enough, I headed home with a bottle of Michael Kor's fragrance.
So as I was curled up on the couch this morning, anxiously waiting for the next Catherine outfit in the movie, I was conscious of my new perfume. I couldn't help but laugh when I realized I was not only admiring Michael Kor's design work, but his fragrance also! (And, yes, I do watch Project Runway.)
Few design disappointments in the movie - I was disappointed Catherine didn't buy the red dress she looked at when she was walking with Thomas in New York. I was disappointed there was never a scene with Catherine wearing the necklace Thomas gave her. Both were gorgeous!
Storyline was romantic, and incredibly passionate, with a happy ending.
It made me smile, and was worthy of postponing my walk to watch.
