Love, Chanel, and SNL
After a week that seemed to last over a month, it was refreshing to stay in and flip between Lifetime’s Coco Chanel and SNL with Michael Phelps and Lil Wayne.
At SNL Phelps stumbled a bit, but was endearing none-the-less and managed to look pretty good in the still shots. I just wish he would tell Lil Wayne to wear his jeans above his ass - I realize that saying this might make me seem old (trust that I am not), but I am certainly not ready for that particular trend to rule the streets again.
Coco Chanel certainly gets better as the movie goes on, but there is no denying that this is a Lifetime movie - tango, kissing in the snow, war, etc. All of the scenes with her on the beach are gorgeous and filtered just right. Lots of love in her life, that’s for sure - and that’s certainly something I’m lacking in mine.
Talking to my sister on the phone today she asked if I was dating anyone…yet. I said I had only broken up with my last boyfriend a month and a half ago (or something like that as I’m actually not too sure when it happened). She said it seemed like a lot longer. I told her that I was really not interested in dating at the moment, not putting it out there, and that if and when I do decide to date that it won’t be hard to do so.
Now, watching Coco Chanel is not really making me want a tweed jacket, but rather making me want to fall in love again, be seduced, be wooed. I want to meet the love of my life, or have him come and sweep me off my feet, realizing that I am the love of his.
It is also making me want to start wearing hats.
