I went to see The September Issue yesterday with my mother, and I have to say I really enjoyed it. I had to go a little out of my way to see it because it was hardly playing anywhere here, but the drive was definitely worth it.
Just seeing the workings of a major magazine was awesome, but I also quite enjoyed seeing Anna and her daughter Bee together, as well as their dog (surprisingly not a lap dog, and quite cute). I also enjoyed everyone's criticisms about Sienna Miller, especially her hair, and a few comments made by Anna towards the camera man about his weight.
Really, it is a must see for anyone with even the slightest interest in fashion.
Also, Anna wore a lot of necklaces like the one in that photo. She had a few different colors, but that particular one seemed to be her go-to. She wore the necklace throughout the film, maybe we'll see similar necklaces everywhere soon?
Now, I don't want to sound like somebody who saw The Devil Wears Prada and liked it so much they thought it meant they were fit to work in fashion. However, after seeing The September Issue, I'd have to say it definitely cemented the fact that I want to work in fashion. I guess I've known for a while, I was debated between careers in fashion/writing/television for a bit of time in ninth grade, but ever since I'd say, the end of the first semester, I was sure. But something about the movie, there was definitely a moment where I thought, "For sure. I want to be in this field." Not to mention, I probably had the stupidest grin on my face throughout the movie.
So yeah, it was really good. Go see it! If you already have, tell me what you thought.
On to something else. My current favorite thing to do is watch 'room tours' on youtube, where people give tours of their rooms. They're quite fun to watch. I love seeing people's super organized rooms because it makes me want everything in mine to be perfect. I was even inspired to clean my bathroom up a little last night. (So hard for me to keep that clean, I always end up with my counter covered in hair and face products.)
Anyway, I don't have much going on today. I'm going to practice driving later and then I might try a little sketching before I do my homework. And then tonight, the Design Star finale is on! Have wonderful days, I'm off to eat the chocolate chip muffin my parents got me. (Late breakfast.)

I agree. the movie was fantastic!
Omg I have just done a post on the film aswell!
I thought it was brilliant and surprisingly funny in places.
I had such a big smile on my face as well, especially when those huge racks of clothes were being carted around the place!

Glad to hear it was good! I want to see it.
I just saw it last week. I loved it & Anna is awesome! She seems very sad in a way though, it kind of broke me a little bit. But she is a great inspiration for women, she works her ass off and still looks fabulous.
