The News: Watch the Trailer for Zach Braff's Movie, Wish I Was Here
It wouldn't really be complete without some music from The Shins, though, would it? Scroll down and watch for yourself.
The Look: Marques'Almeida Python Purse
I'm feeling a little wild today, or at least in need of a little rainbow-colored, animal print loving to make my glum week a little less depressing. Enter the cutest bag from my favorite British brand Marques'Almeida. With the shape of a '60s purse I could imagine Pattie Boyd carrying on one arm (George Harrison on the other) and the print of a pair of pants I definitely owned when I was in the fifth grade, the handbag combines everything I love into one useful piece.
The Face: Replica Lazy Sunday Morning Perfume by Maison Martin Margiela
What if every morning could feel like a lazy Sunday? Imagine if Thursday came complete with waking up late in your sun-filled room, making a coffee with the French press in the kitchen, and then taking a stroll up the block to the deli to grab the paper. Yeah, heaven. But until I wake up in that totally perfect dream world, I'm counting on a spritz of Maison Martin Margiela's new fragrance, Replica Lazy Sunday Morning, to help me pretend. And with notes of pear and white musk, it's really succeeding.

Part crazy collage, part acid trip, part high fashion, these Balenciaga ads lensed by David Sims for the spring '02 season are 100-percent inspiring me today. It's like Alice in Wonderland, as played by Gisele Bundchen, fell down a rabbit hole of fractured mirrors, genius clothing, and plenty of rainbows--AKA where I wish I was right now.
The Song: "Viva L'Amour" - Sabina
Nonchalant Parisian pop that comes with an awesomely illustrated music video? Yes, I want that.
