♥ the act of murmuring; a murmur.

my friend and i were driving along in my car the other day,

when we noticed a good many birds taking flight into the evening sky.

she was startled by their seemingly synchronized movements and the way their 

bodies flashed erratically across the sky, creating one great undulating mass-

 but i have known birds to behave this way and even recalled a video 

i had watched before where they did the same thing. there was even a word for 

what they were doing. but what?

the word i was reaching for was... murmuration.

and thanks to the power of google, here is the video i happened

to watch on someone's blog, some time last year.

nature is beautiful, isn't it?

while i am kind of on the fence about lady gaga's latest album, art pop,

 after listening to it in full on spotify, 

i am quite certain that i love, love, love 

her spring/summer 2014 ad for versace.

ps. have you heard her ode to donatella?

pps. have you watched house of versace yet? i still haven't!

♥ growing old is a privilege and an adventure.

this weekend, do yourself a favor and watch this inspiring documentary:

 fabulous fashionistas (2013). director sue bourne chronicles the closets

and lifestyles of six distinctive, older women-whose sense of fashion

has garnered quite a bit of attention and is truly ageless.

i hope to be like them when i grow up!
