Black Swan (2010): Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis, Vincent Cassel

-
Black Swan is a disturbing psychological thriller based on a ballerina's physically and mentally gruelling role in the ballet - The White Swan.  Portman, won an Oscar for Best Actress in 2010 for this movie. The portrayal of Princess Odette, White Swan, is brilliant along with the pirouette into insanity by becoming the Black Swan.  The film is deeply twisted and darkly meshed with jealousy, betrayal, lust, self loathing and a crazy parent with a  few typical Hollywood movie scenes.  Not uplifting or for the faint of heart. 

PASS!  Unless enjoyment is found wallowing in dreary and depressing stories about dysfunctional personalities.  Seeing The White Swan at a ballet theatre seems more promising.

  What To Wear On The Plane Photo by  Marla Prusik  on  Unsplash "Style is a way to say who you are without having to speak." - Rachel Zoe Recently, on a trip to a sunny locale, I wore a brightly hued outfit to the airport. After all, I was thinking about my destination and wanted to dress with flair and fun.  It is also well-known that if you dress well for any event, adventure or daily activity, one is often treated better.   I know this to be true.  I remember being bumped to first class in my corporate travel days with a friend.   What I found out was that everyone at the airport - I mean everyone - was dressed in black, brown or grey.  Their attire was somber, depressing and sloppy.   I was stunned.  There were lots of tight leggings which are not attractive and also may cause blood clots amongst the plethora of  jeans, sweatshirts and flip flops.  Mind you makeup is at a minimum or not at all. There is only one word to describe - boring. Since when did we become so dr

  The Comfortable Sandal Photo by  Eea Ikeda  on  Unsplash "The world is your oyster.  Happy feet means happy mind and happy enjoyment." KH Travel in summertime can be exciting and an adventure.  However, our feet need to have lots of extra care while traipsing around the planet or within our home towns.  A long walk with a white sundress and sandals can either be incredible or can be painful depending on the selected footwear.  I am a strong believer in spending more dollars on quality designed shoes, sandals and tennis shoes.  Leather is always my first choice along with a stable heel and sole.  Even when you play a sport, be cognizant to purchase the appropriate footwear.  If you play tennis or pickle ball, you need court tennis shoes.  If you do not wear them, you can roll your ankle or fall.  Same with golf and any other sport you take up.   Do not make the mistake and wear running shoes for every endeavor.  The result can be catastrophic.   Thus, this same strategy is

  The Little White Frock Photo by  ShengGeng Lin  on  Unsplash "Summer sundresses. Cool, calm, and collected" Kim Hardwick Summer has arrived early in the Pacific Northwest. The temperature has been soaring in the 90's, which is not typical for this time of year.  We have skipped spring and are sailing straight into summer. Of course, this means, out come the sundresses, shorts, bathing suits and anything that keeps you cool, calm and collected.  For us in the Northwest, summer heat is always a blessing after months of soggy rain.  However, we are hurriedly searching and uncovering our apparel that has been put away until now.  The appropriate attire keeps us refreshed as we partake in the golden rays and decadent hues of our surroundings.  Anyone who is from the Northwest knows that when the sun shines our world is a cosmic wheel of blues, greens, floral touches, and absolute stunning beauty.  Recently, I have noticed fashionistas are wearing summer white dresses that ar
