Hitchcock Nostalgia

I had a thrilling conversation about my student loans today over the phone, which pounded home the reality that I am so broke ass, I shouldn't even be window shopping. So I haven't been, it's just too sad.

I did watch some Hitchcock last night on TCM though, and it made me wish I had lived in the 50's or 60's. Or, at least in that fashion period, women didn't have it so great back then. I love those old styles of dresses, hair and make-up. Mostly the hair, the rest is all pretty classic.

Kim Novak in Vertigo. How does she keep that coat so white in the Redwood forest?

Stiff gray suit looked uncomfortable, but with the right lighting, it was magic.

 

Cary Grant and Eva Marie Saint in North by Northwest. Loved his glasses, their cool demeanor. I guess clothes aren't everything. You have to be able to carry them off!

Jimmy Stewart and Grace Kelly in Rear Window. She was very stylish.
