"I always tell the girls never take it seriously. If ya never take it seriosuly ya never get hurt, ya never get hurt, ya always have fun, and if you ever get lonely, just go to the record store and visit your friends." - Penny Lane
One of my favorite movies ever is Almost Famous.
It is my DREAM as a writer/rock music lover to have William's life...
Except I wouldn't be 'kidnapped' by rock stars, I would be 'kidnapped' by fashion designers and style icons.
I remember watching Almost Famous for the first time at 14 [2001, about a year after it came out of theaters] years old and I became obsessed with everything [in fact I think I still have the soundtrack cd!] about this movie.
[The music is another amazing thing about this movie, I LOVE rock music, especially classic rock and every person knows that rock n roll and fashion go hand in hand.]
Just like Penny Lane says above, 'visit your friends' the only exception with that is I visit my record collection, instead of a store.
I often day dream of befriending 'friends' like the Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Debbie Harry, Stevie Nicks, Bob Dylan [who I STILL have a crush on, the man was sooo sexy!], Elton John, and Janis Joplin to name a few.
Dreaming of being in the same location as these legends just sends rhythmic chills down my spine, so of course my love for my 'friends' influence my style and my love for fashion.

Mimi

P. S. How AMAZING does Lady Gaga look on the September cover of Vanity Fair?

Yes yes yes, couldn't agree more with you lovely! I adore this movie and every character. And music...gosh, the music! Every time I watch it I go in this Penny Lane haze, where I wanna sound and look like her (a bit mad, I know :))

As a music lover I can totally relate to this post. Adore Hendrix's style and I also always loved what Bowie did fashion-wise. Debbie Harry is another favorite of mine. I actually used to hang out in record stores all the time as a teenager, but rarely do that now.
That was adorable have I told you that I adore your collages!! but theese are amazing. I serously like the 60s vibe

Almost Famous is such a wonderful film I love it! I completely agree everything about it, the music, penny lane, and the really laid back storyline, is just such a great film.

Dylan rocks!
I saw 'Almost Famous' a couple of days ago for the first time and I have to say that it's one of the best movies ever. And that quote by Penny Lane has been on my head since then. I absolutely love the style and the music in that movie.
Also I wanted to ask if you've seen 'I'm Not There'? That movie is one of the movies that changed my life, if you haven't seen it you have to. The style is to die for and the music is of course one of the best.
Have a great day!
