Bonjour Tristesse

My post is "Hello Sadness" in French. Ironically at this point in my life, I am welcoming happiness, but we'll brush that aside for now. Francoise Sagan is my photographed inspiration above and "Bonjour Tristesse" is a novel of hers that I must read. It seems that she is a woman after my own heart, not to mention that her haircut kind of looks like mine does right now, same color and all. I think people should read books by authors who have their same hairstyle. If someone gets your hair, then they must get your head. Another funny thing about hair: in the third picture Francoise is with Jean Seberg, who was the muse for my previous trimmings (to fix the mutilated Arbutian Hair Disaster I had to go super short...) In one of my notebooks I wrote about chopping my hair off to feel like a "French/American Movie in black and white. Wearing a striped shirt, badly dubbed, short haircut to show off my ears."

But now that I'm a grown out and grown up blonde I'm feeling more like Francoise. Jean Seberg was a beautiful actress who needn't say a word, but Francoise was a "charming little monster" who used her biting wit over her eccentric looks.
