If you follow me on Twitter, you know that over the weekend I saw 'An Education' and have been raving about it ever since. Beautiful cinematography and stunning performances weren't the only things that attracted me to the film. This absolutely simple looking girl evolves over the 2 hour film, into a stunning, captivating and fascinating young woman. Taking inspiration from Carry Mulligan's wardrobe and hair, I'd like to introduce the 1950's once again into my wardrobe.

I understand that the 80's are in right now, but I think I'd rather stay with the classic, fitted style of the 50's. I hope you all try to see this film. It was quite a wonderful experience, and I know I'll be seeing it again soon.
