BLUE VALENTINE, TEA & FOLK

THIS IS MY FIRST POST SO IT'S A BIT EXCITING! IT'S A RAINY OLD SATURDAY AFTERNOON, BUT I KNOW I'LL FEEL A LOT BETTER AFTER SOME MADAME FLAVOURS JASMINE & PEAR TEA AND SOME ANGUS & JULIUS STONE ON MY IPOD.

I JUST FINISHED WATCHING 'BLUE VALENTINE' -WRITTEN AND DIRECTED BY DEREK CIANFRANCE. ONCE I SEE A FILM THAT TOUCHES ME IN SOME WAY I FIND MYSELF FALLING COMPLETELY IN LOVE WITH THE CHARACTER'S, AND INEVITABLY WITH THE ACTORS. SO NOW I'VE GOT A NEW FOUND LOVE FOR MICHELLE WILLIAMS AND RYAN GOSLING (WELL I PROBABLY HAD ONE FOR RYAN ALREADY). THEY PLAY SUCH REAL AND VULNERABLE CHARACTERS- IT'S NO SURPRISE THEY WERE BOTH NOMINATED FOR BEST ACTOR/ACTRESS AT THE GOLDEN GLOBES EARLIER THIS YEAR.

GARTH'S JUST ARRIVED HOME FROM THE FLEUR WOOD WINTER 12 LOOK BOOK SHOOT -TIME TO GET CHANGED FOR A PARTY IN PADDO. THANKFULLY IT'S A BIT CHILLY SO I CAN WEAR MY S&B METALLIC CABLE JUMPER THAT I JUST DON'T GET TO WEAR ENOUGH.
