The Emperor Has Sweet Clothes

So given that it's finals week over here at good ol' NU, I'm not exactly expecting a roster full of fun and fabulous things to do this weekend.

But there is ONE thing I'll definitely be doing - cruising over to my favorite Brookline neighborhood to screen "The Last Emperor," the new documentary about legendary fashion designer Valentino.

It's showing at the Coolidge Corner Theatre (also known as the best place on earth) starting Friday.

Obsession: The Graduate

So as an amigo recently put it, The Graduate is essentially the original Wes Anderson film. 

I pretty much live for it. The cigarettes, the so-bad-its-good late 60s decor of the Robinson's living room, the KILLER Simon and Garfunkle soundtrack ...

I could wax amazing about it forever. But what I REALLY love are, of course, the costumes.

From tweed coats, to white jeans to Mrs. Robinson's bodacious leopard bra to Ray Bans, this one pretty much rocks the house.

You Really Got a Hold on Me


Obviously I need to see this.
