Hello Darlings,
With Oscar-awards season upon us – and some rather uninspiring winter weather – this past weekend I was keen to watch some of the most buzzed about films: The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo with Rooney Mara, The Descendants with George Clooney, and My Week With Marilyn with Michelle Williams.
Despite the sombre plot, The Descendants unfolds in unexpected ways and is overall positive and inspiring. The film is based on a novel by Kaui Hart Hemmings and tells the story of a distant husband and father who comes to face his wife's infidelity while coming to terms with her upcoming passing. There seems much love these days in Hollywood for George Clooney, and he will likely will win the Oscar for Best Actor for this role. My advice is to definitely watch The Descendants in theatres since the Hawaiian scenery is beautiful and inspiring in the heart of winter, and despite the underlying topic you will surely leave happy!
Hello Darlings,
Can it be that women's shopping habits reveal a much deeper secret? IBM happens to believe so! Throughout history, research shows that women's stiletto height has been a reliable economic indicator. However this trend may be broken in 2012 as women may not only be overwhelmed with their finances but also with the pain in their feet.
According to Dr.Trevor Davis, a consumer product expert with IBM Global Business Services, " Usually, in an economic downturn heels go up and stay up — as consumers turn to more flamboyant fashion as means of fantasy and escape. This time, something different is happening — perhaps a mood of long term austerity is evolving among consumers sparking a desire to reduce ostentation in everyday setting."
