movie night: "À bout de souffle (breathless)"


Breathless cover


jean-luc godard's "a bout de souffle (breathless)" is one of my favorite films. if you haven't seen it, i really recommend it.


it's french, bold, stylish, and dramatic-- a classic french new wave film.


rent it!

i love the simple french style and short hair worn in "breathless" by american actress jean seberg. it's feminine without being too cute-- perfect.

in the film, jean seberg's character, patricia, is an american selling and trying to write for the new york herald tribune newspaper.


the top she's wearing above has become iconic-- if you'd like a t-shirt of your own, you can find them here.



Harvey faircloth look 24



the skirted top from harvey faircloth's spring 2010 collection seems like something patricia would wear, as does nearly everything in the latest built by wendy collection.


i must have these things.

i'd say a bit more about the film, but i really think if you have a free night, you should check it out for yourself.


let me know what you think!
