Bewitching

Angelina's long been an idol of mine, I admire that she's always marched to the beat of her own drum and done her own thing regardless of what other people think or say. So, I was rather excited when news first broke that she'd be playing the brilliantly wicked role of Maleficent, once the source of my childhood nightmares! I watched it on Wednesday with my sister and boy, she does not disappoint! I genuinely think I'd have preferred it if she'd been the only person on screen for the duration of the film, she looked absolutely incredible. Her props and costumes we're spot on and we both thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! Here's a few stills and advertisements for the film, I think you'll agree Angelina is pretty much the only person on this planet who manages to make the weird Lady Gaga cheek implants work for her--

I'm a lover of the 'darker' elements to fashion so watching Maleficent immediately conjured up the incredible Dolce & Gabbana AW14 catwalk to me, I think this show had a real Sleeping Beauty narrative to it--

I've been hunting around for more gothic fairytale-esque inspiration since Wednesday, think I might experiment over the next couple of weeks. Might get myself a sheer lace gown, feathers some chain mail!

So yes, I'm sort of in love with Angelina and now Maleficent, the baddest of them all. Bow down bitches!

  1. I can't wait to see this movie! The stills look incredible!
    The D&G A/W14 collection is also amazing, I'm completely drawn in by the draping fabric, feathers and embellishment.
    If only it wasn't haunting to wear these garms on the reg... *sigh*

  2. It's very beautifully shot and Angelina is just the perfect person to play Maleficent! Glad you agree about D&G, what I'd give to own any of it! x
