J'adore "J'adore"



Kind of obsessed with this perfume, J'adore by Christian Dior.  I never would have thought to wear it since I choose perfumes in a very specific, inductive way, rather than a more experimental, vast search for a certain smell type of way (I, by chance, got it in a gift bag).  I described it as "soft ferocity reminiscent of an elegant night turned tickle fight."  I've never had a perfume that so strongly reminded me of an event as much as this one.  Usually something smells really sexy, or clean, or like an outdoor garden to me, but this one has a sense of action about it...  It's really something else.

About Me

My Photo
I'm an LA transplant now living in Manhattan. I used to take too many camera phone photos despite never having purchased an additional memory card. That was the main form of photo evidence for my "haciendo" and "viendo" until Kristen, an LA based friend I share the having of a knife tattoo behind my ear with, gave me her old Fujifilm camera, which has since DIED. Kristen is now removing her knife tattoo from behind her ear, while mine is still in tact, for better or for worse. The camera died on my first day in Lisbon. The last image it captured was a collection of traditional blue & white ceramic wares displayed in a storefront window. Whatever I was trying to photograph afterwards wasn't worth it. I write and produce film projects, have a dangerous predilection for vintage Robinson Golluber scarves and this blog serves as a window to everything else I do when I'm not satisfying those first two passions. I'm trying to blog more and tweet less @annabelleqv. What about you?
