Carrie

It's still strange for me that Carrie Fisher is gone. She was the youngest of the original cast of Star Wars. I figured she be around for a long time.





One of the things I never knew was that she sang. It makes sense since both her parents: Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher were singers. She had a wonderful voice. There are videos of her singing all over you tube.



One of the things that I loved about Carrie Fisher she always radiated wit and strength. Those qualities is what makes Leia grow from Princess to General effortlessly in the Star Wars Saga.


 


Her legacy lives on in her daughter Billie Lourd and her two children. We will always have Carrie in our films and books. She will always be My Princess and My General. You will never be forgotten Carrie. -`πŸ•―´-

Dreamy Thursday: Autumn Dreams



 

Autumn is here. Dreamy soft colors of brown, ecru, mustard yellow, pale peach and apricot shades are here to inspire you for this magical season of Autumn.




I love all the seasons. A little nip in the air, the crunch of yellow leaves underfoot and a misty day in Autumn always leaves me in a romantic state of mind. Being the star of your own life always in what you wear.



Here is to wearing whatever make you feel beautiful, authentic and free. Enjoy these early days of Autumn, my friends.

The last few days of Autumn

 


   Things I've enjoyed in the waning weeks of late Summer


🍁 The Terror on Netflix. It recently dropped in late August on netflix. It mixed historical facts of the doomed ships The Terror and The Erubus on the search for a vital sea route between the Atlantic and Pacific mixed with a supernatural creature stalking the crew. It is truly one of the best tv shows I have ever seen. My new favorite is Jared Harris who plays Captain Francis Crozier. It is a great ensemble piece including Harris, CiarΓ‘n Hinds, Tobias Menzies, Nive Nielsen and Greta Sacchi. 

🍁 Snow Fall on youtube. It is a Chinese fantasy drama about a elegant vampire who falls in love with a mistreated blind woman. I'm up to episode four. It is lush and beautifully filmed. For all my fellow romantics, you'll enjoy it.


🍁 I've started back to reading mangas again. I got a delightful trio of mangas that is cat focused.

  A Cat From Our World about an forgotten witch who transports a cat from our world to help her. He does it so many ways that she never expected. 

Creepy Cat about a woman who moved into her new house and finds herself the owner of a quite remarkable cat. It is a hilarious and sweet story so far. If you love stores with a goth feel , this is your manga.

The Masterful Cat is Depressed Again today also a woman who find a stray kitten that ends up being her best friend. Did I mention that he cleans, walks upright and is about six feet tall? It is funny and makes me wish my cat Jet could cook for me!

So what have all you been enjoying these last weeks of Summer? We are almost down to the wire with a few days left until the Autumn Equinox. I hope your Summer was good to you and that your Autumn will be magical.
