For the occasion, I've compiled a playlist of some adorable love-ish songs.
I want to wish you a happy Valentine's day because I love you all!! I think that this is a perfect day to appreciate the people we love, even if we don't have, like, a real-life valentine. Also, call me cynical, but I think that giant cheap teddy bears and plastic heart-shaped paraphernalia are kind of ridiculous... Anyway, we can celebrate the day without all of that stuff and it will be wonderful! (although I do love valentine's candy... those heart-shaped suckers are so cute! Also, CHOCOLATE.)
Anyway, since tonight I'm looking forward to a lovely chick flick marathon, I thought I'd share five of my favorites with you! These are pretty much staples of the chick flick universe. If you haven't seen them yet, get going!!
Dirty Dancing
My sister and I have seen this movie, like, a lot of times. A LOT. It really is a classic. It's got the perfect combination of forbidden love, angst, summer camp feels, and, most importantly, dancing!
Pretty Woman
I love the unlikely pairing of this romance, and Julia Roberts is so wonderful! It never fails to make me laugh.
Breakfast at Tiffany's
Don't you just want so badly to be Audrey Hepburn? In Breakfast at Tiffany's her character, Holly Golightly, manages to find a perfect balance between being sophisticated, glamorous, and free-spirited. And she's SO stylish to boot! Also, love the bathtub couch!
Sixteen Candles
This movie. It's wonderful. So funny! (apart from the sort of racist exchange student thing...) I think this is basically what every teenage girl wishes would happen to them. Jake Ryan (played my Michael Schoeffling) is SO BEAUTIFUL OH MY GOD WHY ISN'T HE A REAL-LIFE HUMAN BEING IN THIS CENTURY.
Clueless
Clueless is arguably the most chick-flicky chick flick of all time, and probably my favorite. Cher Horowitz is so ridiculously vapid that you just have to love her. Watch it!!!
Again, I want to wish you all a happy Valentine's day and a wonderful weekend! I hope to get back on track soon as far as posting here. I just finished working on a really awesome project with some really awesome people that has taken a lot of my time... pictures will be up shortly!!!
