what kind of bird are you...

a few weeks ago i began reading this blog. i read the whole thing. ya, even the archives clear back to the days of live journal. oy. i realize in today's savvy world, this makes me sound a bit like a blog-stalker. i can assure you, i just like control. i need all the info... so i went and got it. and seriously, katie's blog is loads of unpredictable fun.

anywho, when i was perusing her past posts, i saw the most amazing poster... a roman holiday movie poster, in italian! so lovely. so i hightailed to the google page and searched for roman holiday posters, because, hello?! it's on my top-five-of-all-time list. i didn't find the poster that i was looking for, per se...

i found better! team, please click the following link for claudia varosio's etsy shop. she illustrates unofficial movie posters, paper dolls and pop culture prints. you're welcome. here's what i bought...!!!!!!!!

roman holiday (duh)

before sunrise (also on my top-5 list - because, ps... claudia has all but one on my top-5 (some like it hot is not a movie poster in her shop, though she does have other marilyn monroe film posters) we're soul sisters for sure).

moonrise kingdom (i know, a bold choice for top-5... but wes anderson is an undisputed genius and moonrise kingdom spoke to me in a way that all his other films have... this one just made it clear... this runs deep for him. he's making brilliant films on purpose, it's in his very make-up).

(in case you're wondering, the last film on my top-5 is casablanca. and she has a poster for it... honestly, i was in a swirly state of euphoria when i was looking through all the prints, i didn't even see it... it'll be in my next order though!).

how about this awesome print for the smiths' song there's a light that never goes out... 

look at this clementine kruczynski paper doll from eternal sunshine of the spotles mind... i bought it as a gift for my dear pal over at the daily bun.

and for the record, i totes made my top-5 list pre-etsy purchase. it's in print because it was one of the first email conversations jordan and i had after we met that day in the park.

the point is, go over to etsy and buy yourself some pretty things.

fyi, it's 36 degrees this morning. ouf. it's meant to be 14 degrees on monday in lowville, ny... where i will be for christmas. seriously? wish me luck!
