falling pants + glitter

I always look forward to Bill Cunningham's photo feature "On the Street" in the NY Times where he captures the fashion of the moment on the streets of New York in a photo collage. I'm a jeans and t-shirt person, but fashion is interesting to me in terms of how a look is put together (even though I don't practice this art form myself), and how/why fashion trends spread and emerge. And Cunningham is my favorite kind of expert: gleefully passionate, and driven by an unquenchable curiosity. This week's audio slideshow on the trend of men's falling pants paired with glittering belts is especially good. To hear his voice (vs reading his words), is delightful. 

Robert Muraine, also known as "Mr. Fantastic" on the street, puts on an audition unlike any other. By far the best audition I've ever seen, and interesting to watch over and over. This is off the first show of Season 4 on "So You Think You Can Dance." May 22nd, 2008. 

They dance!

"Without one eccentric Jewish immigrant from Transylvania, the New York City Marathon simply wouldn't exist. Judd Ehrlich's fun, loving, and inspirational tribute to the late Fred Lebow shows how one man's imagination and determination created one of the world's most popular sporting events." - Tribeca Film Festival

Hope I can catch this screening at the Tribeca Film Festival!

I love witnessing the transition to spring. We were in the park Saturday and Sunday, running and enjoying the warmer weather and green and flowering things.
