♥ "we don't see things as they are, we see them as we are." ~anais nin

a while back, flavorpill named anais nin one of literature's 10 best dressed authors, 

but it was not until this vacation that i had a chance to read one of her works
 and to get to know the innerworkings of this chic parisian writer
who penned some of literature's most bold & forthright
erotica of her time.

source.

"they all felt something- even the women who wanted to know where 

i shopped for my clothes. women always think that when they have my shoes,

 my dress, my hairdresser, my make-up, it will all work the same way. they do not conceive

 of the witchcraft that is needed, they do not know that i am not beautiful but i 

only appear to be at certain moments."
*from henry & june
