i spy: dreamy skies, French film, and pre-punk fashion from the 1920s

August was half enjoying the dreamy end of summer, and half looking forward the bustle and fun of autumn.  Andy and I went on a little Truffaut kick, watching The 400 Blows and Stolen Kisses.  And we did a little trip prep by reacquainting ourselves with Mozart via Amadeus--what fun it was to watch that film again (the last time I saw it was probably its release 30 years ago)!

I hope your August was--and your September will be--beautiful and inspiring!  (More of what you see here can be found on my Tumblr and Pinterest accounts.)

    1. I know! I really wish there was more info with the photo. I like to think he's perhaps dressed in a sheep-like manner to comfort motherless or traumatized lambs.
