You Heartbreaker

"We felt the imprisonment of being a girl, the way it made your mind active and dreamy, and how you ended up knowing which colors went together. We knew that the girls were our twins, that we all existed in space like animals with identical skins, and that they knew everything about us though we couldn't fathom them at all. We knew, finally, that the girls were really women in disguise, that they understood love and even death, and that our job was merely to create the noise that seemed to fascinate them." - The Virgin Suicides by Jeffrey Eugenides 

If you loved the movie, you'll adore the book. I just finished reading it and I'm so in love. 

If you haven't read Femme yet, read it! I've already started working on the next issue and if you'd like to contribute, send an email to FemmeSubmission@gmail.com

Love that photo with the car! It would be fun to ride around in a car with pots of geraniums on it.

I hadn't realized The Virgin Suicides WAS a book. I definitely want to read it now.
I am in loove with these pictures. (unsuprisingly, considering they are on your blog!)
by the way I think I've read Femme five times through now, I'm not joking you. I love it and am continually amazed with your writing each time I read it.
