pointy but not *too* pointy, ya know what I mean?
Så … Vad är måndagskontrollen?
Bra fråga! Det är inte, i motsats till sitt namn, en faktisk omröstning. It’s just a list of five more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past gazillion years (more than 10!). I love reading your answers, and it helps me get my week off to a great start. ?
1. Last thing you bought for yourself?
After all the talk about private versus public leggings last week, I finally took the plunge and bought some leggings that I can actually — GASP! — wear outside the house. Like, in front of real live breathing people. HA HA HA! Oh, Karen. You’re a mess. Anyway, they’re these cute black leggings with mesh paneling and a mesh side pocket. They’re called the Holly pants by Senita.
2. Your top 5 movies of all time?
Gudfader
Godfather II
Ljudet av musik
Casablanca
Apocalypse now <—- although sometimes this gets switched out for other movies because it's so heavy and I can only watch it once every five or so years. sometimes I replace with Amy Heckerling's Clueless, which sounds kinda silly, I know…but it always makes me laugh, and I can watch it over and over again. Again, it’s a dialogue thing for me. I love the use of slang and how it doesn’t feel forced or fake. It’s just fun! And when it’s neither of those two, it’s dirty Dancing…because nobody puts baby in the corner. 3. speaking of movies, how do you feel about movies with ambiguous endings? ALLVARLIGT. JAG KAN INTE. There was a time when I was cool with endings that didn’t tie stories up in a neat bow, but nowadays I am unabashedly team happy ? Slut. I want resolution, I want the characters to get what they want, and I want to feel satisfied that the last 90 minutes weren’t for naught. I 100% know that this has to do with real life and how challenging “adulting” has been the past few years. I want — no, I need — to have that sense of escape, and to know that, on screen at least, everything is going to be alright. ANNONS 4. pointy or round-toe shoes? Depends. If the shoes are flats (which I’m all about these days), then pointy toes, as long as they aren’t long or overly pointy. I like a bit of a point because that extra length makes me look taller, but when it's too pointy, 1) I feel very witch-y, and 2) I tend to trip over my shoes… Funnily enough, the tripping never happens when Jag är ensam. It’s always when I’m in a crowded place surrounded by people. If there’s a heel, on the other hand/foot, I can go either way, but again, if the toe is pointy, I don’t want it to be witch-y pointy. 5. Eyeliner? Oh, heck yeah! Gotta tightline that mo-fo, homie. I’m still having a moment with Chanel mat Taupe;. It’s been my go-to for months. “Shoe fog” is a thing Apparently, I’ve been floating around in a thick shoe fog because I looked into my closet today and found these black patent-leather BCBG flats, which I’ve had for years but totally forgot about. Living in the same pair of cushion-y running shoes has taught me one thing — dressy flats aren’t all that comfortable. Or, at least, I haven’t found a pair yet (that last) that are comfy. I had a pair of leopard-print Dr. Scholl’s (Don’t hate! They were super cute.) a few years ago, but they fell apart after a year. So anyway, I’m on a mission to find a cute pair of tan flats for fall. If you’ve got any suggestions, holla at a cat lady. In other news, Monday. How’s your’s going? ?
