For some reason, I’m suddenly intrigued by the cosmos and the universe…and Christopher Kane Resort 2011 collection…
Photograhy by Lahoz and Brockington
Motel Cosmic Sweetheart Dress $58.00 (Nastygal Vintage)
Christopher Kane Resort 2011 dress, Random Blazer and tights I found on Tumblr.
Want that blanket right now!
And I want to share this moving quote from the Astronomer Carl Sagan’s wife:
“Carl faced his death with unflagging courage & never sought refuge in illusions. The tragedy was that we knew we would never see each other again. I don’t ever expect to be reunited with Carl. But, the great thing is that when we were together, for nearly twenty years, we lived with a vivid appreciation of how brief & precious life is. We never trivialized the meaning of death by pretending it was anything other than a final parting. Every single moment that we were alive & we were together was miraculous — not miraculous in the sense of inexplicable or supernatural. We knew we were beneficiaries of chance… That pure chance could be so generous & so kind… That we could find each other, as Carl wrote so beautifully in Cosmos, you know, in the vastness of space & the immensity of time… That we could be together for twenty years. That is something which sustains me & it’s much more meaningful…
The way he treated me & the way I treated him, the way we took care of each other & our family, while he lived. That is so much more important than the idea I will see him someday. I don’t think I’ll ever see Carl again. But I saw him. We saw each other. We found each other in the cosmos, and that was wonderful.”
It touched my heart when I read it because I also want to be with one person, just cherishing every moment together forever….ah, one day, I’ll find him.
Wishing you an endless Saturday…! xoxoxoxoxoxo

We found each other in the cosmos, and that was wonderful.” awww speechless!

What an amazing quote at the end! Carl Sagan was pretty incredible and it doesn’t come as a surprise that his wife was so well-spoken and intelligent too. Thanks for sharing it!

I loves the first photo!
Of course you will find love, sweety! Enjoy your weekend!
Yes, lately I’ve seen the cosmic trend pop up more frequently! I love that dress from Nasty Gal.
Oh, that quote is being saved to my quote collection ASAP. Touching and speaks volumes to when you find that true love! Hope you enjoy your weekend!
xx, becs
I’ve been obsessed with cosmos pattern too 🙂
Truth is I don’t do anything special to my eyelashes, I only use Mascara, and not a special one, though I’ve found that a Maybelline one (the purple one, I don’t know its name) or one by Yves Rocher work well on me 🙂
xx
I love these prints too!

agree with you- these photos and the clothes are amazing. mr.kane really know what he’s doing 😉
my weekend plans are none right now- as i feel like resting up after being busy in london.. now it’s just nice to be back with my boyfriend and cat.. even though i wanna go back to london asap..
hope you’re having a good weekend

The first pictures exude a (graceful) kind of futuristic poetry, and this quote perfectly illustrates a certain “love symbiosis” idea, not on a cynically possessive BUT on an uber enlightened version indeed !!!
ps: Je te souhaite un Excellent Week End Dear Shin !!!
à Bientôt, Antoine
oh this is such an amazing touching quote! tnx for sharing dear, and to give me something to think about!

woow love those cosmo / universe clothing <33
Thanks for sharing 🙂
xx
This is the most brilliant quote I heard in years. Thanks for sharing!
(And of course the clothes are winderful too, and that blanket…)
It is quite amazing the galaxy print.. I have been loving it for ages but cant seem to find the right garment with that print.. That blanket really is a musthave! Nice blog.
Love this post. Especially the last bit about Carl’s wife! What she said was soooo very sweet and touching it melted my heart and almost brought tears to my eyes. Ok, it actually did. I’m sappy like that lol.
Hello
I miss your blog, I’m trying to live more and stay a little bit less on line LOL Today I went to the beach and it was amazing.
This picture are awesome \o/
I loved this Christopher Kane collection!

Wow, these are great photos! Love the cosmo feel to them, and that last photo is so cute! The quote is very nice, and of course, I too want to be with that special guy forever, and no one else will ever be able to replace whoever he is.
And thanks so much for your kind words! Actually, I always read style.com’s review before I write my own (because really, I’m not an expert!). Obviously I never copy what style.com says, but if I like their interpretation, I’ll work it into my reviews. 🙂

oh wow i want this blanket too ! i love all the galaxy print
i havnt commented in awhile but im still here
If this wasn’t the best update in time, I don’t know what is! I really want to feel so deeply and passionately about someone, but he is nowhere to be seen, or I haven’t found him yet.. I really adore the Christopher Kane collection though, it’s amazing! Yesterday I’d spent with my sister, we had a sisters’ night in.. lol, fun though! Ate a lot of mango sorbet and watched movies of all-times, played backgammon until 3 am. Well, it was amusing. How was your Saturday, except of the duties that had to be done? Did you just relax or did you go out and had a awesome time! ;P xoxoo
I just made a post about the Christopher Kane dress and the universe print on Friday.

Hi, Shin! Hope you’re having a great Sunday! Can’t wait for the Oscars. Yes, I’ve seen both theBlack Swan and The King’s Speech. Hope the last one will win for best film (although, to be honest, my favourite is Inception, it was so original and it really blew my mind) and Colin Firth as well. He was great in The Single Man too and I do think he should win this time. xoxoxo

My favourite outfits are the top two.
I am not sure if I would wear a gold sequin dress, mainly due to not having an occasion to wear it rather than the fact it would not suit me.
The neckline of the second image is similar to a dress that I own, but mine is slightly less elaborate.
That statement necklace is INSANE!

I really, really, really want that blanket.
Really.
