john cusack

the day before i left the great state of alaska, i had an opportunity to help out with a movie. well, not really. my dad and i were security escorts for some of the filming of the frozen ground (look it up here). nicholas cage is in it...along with *girly sigh* john cusack! JOHN freaking CUSACK in anchorage. i just about passed out when my dad told me i could (possibly) meet him.

and for those of you who don't know, i adore john cusack. love his movies.
say anything? a classic - lloyd dobler, you're the key master to my heart. just kidding.
grosse pointe blank - who couldn't love the hit man with a heart of gold?
high fidelity - he has top 10 lists....i always make lists. coincidence? no.
serendipity - who doesn't like the idea of fate?
and let's not forget one crazy summer & better off dead...

long story short, two big name actors were going to need escorts....and neither of them was john cusack. sadness. heart breaking, soul crushing sadness.

however, the day was not lost...i got to hang out ALL DAY with my dad :) which was super fun. and i'm certain that memory will last in my heart much longer than if i had met a movie star.

alice in wonderland

when i was little, i used to watch disney's alice in wonderland before school everyday. EVERY SINGLE DAY. i would sit and talk/sing along with the entire movie. my mom can verify this. so, needless to say, when i heard about tim burton's alice in wonderland movie coming out, i was ecstatic! there is a lot of advertising & hype along with the movie's release and some super cool photo shoots. since i adore blue...here are some gorgeous alice dresses (click on photo for source):

and my favorite dress out of the whole bunch:

can i please get a designer to make me one of these (for free)? thanks to green wedding shoes for posting the last photo :)
