The Misanthrope
Went to see The Misanthrope with Damian Lewis and Keira Knightly in the west end last week. Gorgeous set, great acting and an amusing and thankfully modernised script. I liked Keira's Chinese-style jacket too. I know, I go to the theatre and sit there thinking about where I can get the outfits from... I can't help it.
Arty Farty Stanislavski
2010 is all about me finally trying out some of my old interests and seeing if they still give me the thrill and excitement my desk job just never will. I once was very active on the amateur stage ('darling!') but after many teenage years spent being told, on the chance occasions I met a professional in the field, 'not to put your daughter on the stage Mrs Worthington' that the joyous side of this activity waned and I went in a different creative direction. Recently a friend took an am dram course and I went to see him in a play as part of the Camden Fringe festival. It was really great and I was so jealous afterwards and a little bit gutted that I had stopped being all arty farty actorly and had become a nine to fiver with less and less confidence in my creative self.
So I've signed up and now find myself in strange warm up exercises, jiggling my shoulders and hips in a semi-circle of other 30 somethings of a Saturday morning whilst making high and low-pitched noises and feeling all silly. I can't say if I like it yet but I like the feeling that I'm exploring a different creative route that I enjoyed very much as a teenager. If I end up in the local church production of 'Joseph and is technicolour Jill Sander trench coat for Uniqlo' or I end up in Hollywood on a 500 a day calorie diet and looking all botoxed and tanned I don't mind. For now its just an adventure.
Pictures wise for the post I'm showing my most aspired to artists in the field, most in productions where I think they excelled. Julie Walters, Juliet Stevenson, Leonardo Dicaprio, James McAvoy and Anne-Marie Duff.

What I bought in the sales
Oooh naughty, I have spent all of my December paycheck and its January 6th. Hmm, looks like I'll be shopping in the basics food range until February. Ridiculously I started my sales shopping two days before Christmas whilst strolling through the very quiet shopping area near my mum's house in Teesside. A stress free, practically empty department store just doesn't happen in London so this was something of a novelty.
Anyhow I am now the proud owner of the cream/white leather dress from French Connection that I've had my eye on all year but couldn't buy thanks to the £250 price tag! I acquired it for £150 which is still massively too expensive for my wage but in my defense, I HAD TO HAVE IT. So what if I have to suck my stomach in for it to look good. It does fit, I swear.
Anyway I went mad buying lots of little tops etc... and have to say it was well worth it now I have something different to wear every day but I hate being very poor and so now think I should have showed a little more self-restraint.
PS. The Fiorelli bag is the same design but I got in light pink same as the t.shirt colour and the necklace wasn't even in the sale ha!
