Round 2: The Election

Round 2: The Election
I had to make a set influenced by Reese Witherspoon's movie Election. That movie, which premiered in 1999, started Reese's career in Hollywood. A fun fact about the movie is that Mellisa Joan Hart (who used to play Sabrina the teenage witch, one of my old favorite shows) also auditioned for the lead role of Tracey, but obviously Reese got the part. I have never seen the movie myself, but I imagine that Tracey's style is very preppy. I wanted give the outfit a little twist, since summer is so close! :)
 
I love the pops of magenta in this set too. I'm a big fan of taking colors that you normally wouldn't see in spring/summer and making them work.

Battle of the Actresses

Battle of the Actresses
Okay, so the challenge was to create a set based on your favorite movie that your actress (mine is Reese Witherspoon) is in. I based my set off of Water for Elephants. It is a fantastic movie based on a amazing book.
 
I love this movie because it is a work of art. It's based in 1931, and all of the costumes and decor are very realistic. Plus, I read the book before seeing the movie, and I loved seeing the pages come to life. The plot follows Robert Paterson's character, Jacob, as he joins a circus as the vet. He soon meets his irascible boss, August, and August's gorgeous, quiet wife, Marlena (who is played by Reese). As you may have guessed, Jacob falls for Marlena, and if you want to know how it ends, you're going have to watch the film. ;)
 
A fun fact about Reese is that in late 2011, she was hit by a car while out jogging, rushed to the hospital, and received a small scar on her forehead. She now covers it with her bangs.

Note: I'm so sorry that I missed the deadline! :( It's been a crazy week for me and I lost track of the days, but that's no excuse. I'm so sorry!

I *heart* working out!
This might sound really gross, but I was so exhausted after my workout today that I just laid on the floor afterwards and made this set.
 

I do PopPilates with Cassey Ho every day, and it is so much fun! Plus, Cassey makes her own workout clothes and gym bags that are absolutely amazing!
 
Okay, I better go shower now. I'm gross :P

Okay so I'm not sure how many of you watch Community on NBC, but it is my absolute favorite show. I'm so happy that it was rebuked for a 5th season.
 
This set is based on Annie, since I love her preppy style so much.

I made zombie make up yesterday. That was loads of fun. I'm now addicted to watching House, too.
