Witchy Woman

This is nine month old Bella's first Halloween.  Isn't she a marshmallow dream?  So far she loves her Halloween treats and toys.  However, she hates the decorations.  She is terrified of my old skinny black cat that decorates my porch every year.  Silly puppy girl.  She is not a fan of my witch hat either.  Halloween night is such a big deal here at The Manor.  It will be an interesting night for sure.

Obsession: Edward and Bella

(via)

Yes, I am one of those.  I LOVE The Twilight Saga.  I was a little late to the party because I hadn't read a vampire book since Anne Rice's The Vampire Chronicles.  However, billions of people (young and old) all over the globe usually aren't wrong.  After seeing the first movie, Twilight...I caught up very quickly.  I read all four huge books in a couple of weeks. The Twilight Saga draws you into an "exquiste fantasy" of love. I am completely obsessed. 

"People do not want to just read Meyer's books; they want to climb inside them and live there...There's no literary term for the quality Twilight, Harry Potter, and The Lord of the Rings share, but you know it when you see it: their worlds have a freestanding internal integrity that makes you feel as if you should be able to buy real estate there."  This quote is so true! 

SO, tomorrow I will be at the theatre for Breaking Dawn getting my Edward and Bella fix!  :)

Fall In Love: Autumn In Paris

It's time to "Fall In Love"!  "Fall In Love" is my first link-up series created to share a love for the fall/autumn season.  Join me on Tuesdays through December 20th to share your fall inspired posts.  Share anything related to the season.  Fall fashion, fall makeup techniques, your Thanksgiving table ideas, your best fall recipes, or football party ideas/recipes.  Coming soon we will be moving on to Christmas!  

To "Fall In Love":  1.  Make sure you are "following along" on Big City Belle.  2.  Insert the Fall In Love button from my sidebar in your fall related post.  3.  Please include a link in your post to Big City Belle.  4.  Link-up at the bottom of this post.  5.  Check out other Fall In Love posts, make friends, be inspired, and have fun!

There isn't a season that I do not dream of Paris.  Paris is my favorite city in the world of those I have visited.  Paris is sophisticated, romantic, beautiful, mysterious, gothic, modern, grand, and cozy. It is a city filled with history, art, culture, fashion, and feasts. To say it stole my heart is an understatement.

Inspiration: Water For Elephants

(via)

Every now and then a movie comes along that completely inspires me.  Water For Elephants is one of those movies.  I fell in love with the story and beauty of this movie in the theater.  It was released on DVD earlier this month and, I bought my copy last night!  If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it! 

(via)

"Academy Award Winners Reese Witherspoon and Christoph Waltz join Robert Pattinson for this epic tale of forbidden love based on Sara Gruen's acclaimed best seller.  Against all odds, a veterinary student (Pattinson) and a beautiful circus performer from a bygone era (Witherspoon), meet and fall in love through their shared compassion for a special elephant.  But their secret romance incurs the wrath of her dangerously volatile husband (Waltz)."

Reese Witherspoon is breathtaking in this film!  I loved her 1930's vintage hair, makeup, and outfits.
