The Royal Wedding

"The royal wedding was being mentioned around 67 times a second on Twitter as viewers took to the social network to publish their thoughts on the marriage of Prince William and Kate Middleton. On Facebook the wedding was dominating status updates, with around 74 mentions every second." (The Telegraph)

We all knew this day would be a big deal but it was bigger than I thought...massive, extraordinary, BIG STUFF.

Kate's dress was designed by Sarah Burton, the creative director of Alexander McQueen. She picked a similar silhouette to the infamous dress of Grace Kelly. Anything lace and my mouth drops. I thought she looked stunning.

Who wouldn't want to wear an "iconic wedding dress" on their big day?

The most beautiful moment of the ceremony was when Prince William was standing at the altar & Prince Harry whispered to his brother, "She is here now" as Kate appeared. After she made her way down the aisle, Prince William told her, "You look beautiful."

P.S. Prince Harry + that smile = trouble

One word...knockout.

Spring is the time to show off colors and prints and what is better than snatching a hot item that retails for $50 - $120. Check out for the collection at Macy's store nationwide and on macys.com!

Narcissism



The movie, "Up in the Air" is a movie I find interesting. It shows obsession with motivation, but also shows how disclosure of one's feelings becomes destructive.

The main character, Ryan is constantly traveling, constantly in the air. When he touches ground, it's only to lay off people and off he goes again. 'To know me is to fly with me' is Ryan's motto. If something does not provide him with miles, it is of no value to him.

The interesting part of the movie is when he decides to disclose his feelings for Vera. However, it ends badly. When the fantasy of his relationship with Vera breaks, it's too much of a responsibility for Ryan to handle so he disappears.

Ryan is a narcissist. They are often emotionally cold and distant in their relationships. In the beginning of relationships, they appear to be very loving and happy. But after a while, things start to change and the mask begins to unfold. You might think how is it possible this person who expressed eternal love towards Vera doesn't care anymore. Ryan truly feels he loves Vera but because of his inability to experience deep emotion, it only lasts for a brief moment...and his never-ending search for excitement continues.

At the end of the movie, the scene cuts to clouds - it's the moment when the audience gets to think about what they want in their life.
