I'm thinking of getting this Lisa Maree 'down the garden path one piece' in orange. It also comes in black and white...but the one thing I do worry about is, awkward tan lines much?

Crochet is so cute in the summertime~!!!

Model Britt Maren. I think I kinda like her with red hair the most.

Nicole Kidman as Mrs. Coulter - The Golden Compass

Nicole Kidman as Mrs. Coulter - The Golden Compass

Nicole Kidman as Mrs. Coulter, the main antagonist of the film, an influential woman who takes an interest in Lyra.

Based on author Philip Pullman's bestselling and award-winning novel,'The Golden Compass' tells the first story in Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy. 'The Golden Compass' is an exciting fantasy adventure, set in an alternative world where people's souls manifest themselves as animals, talking bears fight wars, and Gyptians and witches co-exist. At the center of the story is Lyra (played by newcomer Dakota Blue Richards), a 12-year-old girl who starts out trying to rescue a friend who's been kidnapped by a mysterious organization known as the Gobblers - and winds up on an epic quest to save not only her world, but ours as well. 'The Golden Compass' stars an ensemble cast that includes Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig, Sam Elliott, and Ian McShane.

The Golden Compass Mrs. Coulter with the Golden Monkey Statue

Now you can insert a new element of malevolence into your Golden Compass or film-villains anthology with the psychologically complex, intelligent, and power-hungry Mrs. Coulter. Master Replicas' authentic 1:6 scale statue captures her chilling beauty and sinister sophistication as she poses with her vicious golden monkey and a vile spy fly. Display this mesmerizing polystone sculpture alone or with the character figurines of Lord Asriel and Serafina Pekkala, to show the forces of evil, power, and wisdom that influence Lyra Belacqua on her journey!

No Apologies...

Some of you have emailed me saying that you noticed a lack in posting lately...and just wanted to see what's up. I'm not going to stand here and apologize for "being a bad blogger" or anything. But, I will fill you all in...

I have spent the last few weeks putting most of my time and energy into a new business venture: Diane Dulgerian Photography. I have been working on my portfolio...which means taking tons of pictures of others, and not of me in my outfits. I have put a Facebook page together the other day, and I invite all my readers to check it out. If you like photography...and you like me, I would LOVE it if you would "like" my Facebook page!

Also, I am planning on getting a website up in August. So stay tuned for that!!! This is all coming together and I'm very excited about it.

What does this mean for Snapshot Fashion? No worries! Snapshot Fashion is not going anywhere. So relax! I love my readers too much to up and leave them. :-)

My fave picks from Willow Resort 2013. There were a lot a head-to-toe python print looks in this collection but as you know, I'm not really into the whole uniform print-on-print look. I like a dash of it here and there, preferably peeking out from under a crisp blazer of some sorts.

I'm really into the denim vest look nowadays. Sometimes it's a little too hot for full-on denim jackets so cut off the sleeves! It's a great casual look that looks understated over a tank top, a cropped shirt or a bikini.

Megan Fox as Tallulah Black / Lilah - Jonah Hex

Megan Fox as Tallulah Black / Lilah - Jonah Hex

Megan Fox as Tallulah Black / Lilah: A gun-wielding prostitute and Jonah Hex's love interest.

Jonah Hex is a scarred drifter and bounty hunter of last resort, a tough and stoic gunslinger who can track down anyone... and anything. Having survived death, Jonah's violent history is steeped in myth and legend, and has left him with one foot in the natural world and one on the "other side." His only human connection is with Lila, whose life in a brothel has left her with scars of her own. Jonah's past is about to catch up with him when the U.S. military makes him an offer he can't refuse: in exchange for his freedom from the warrants on his head, he must track down and stop the dangerous terrorist Quentin Turnbull. But Turnbull, who is gathering an army and preparing to unleash Hell, is also Jonah's oldest enemy and will stop at nothing until Jonah is dead.
