Sleepy in pink

February 27, 2009

I couldn’t decide what to post today and then I came across this photo… yes the pink tones initially attracted me to it, but also the sense of serenity and peacefulness of the image, she looks like a glamboyant sleeping doll.

While visions of red carpet, designer frocks and bling circle my head.
Thinkin’ of Angelina in [...]
