In honor of what is seriously the raddest day on the calendar, 9-02-10, a shot of the original, angstiest teens on television. The new class of Beverly Hills, 90210 doesn’t hold a candle to these kids and their bitchin’ printed button downs, L.A. Gear sneakers and denim tuxedos. Who wants to meet up at the Peach Pit?
I haven’t seen Sex and the City 2. To be honest, I might not see Sex and the City 2 (I know people that walked out). While I was obsessed with the series, it took me a good six months after its release to see the first movie. (And that was only because I was going through a trauma and a friend thought I’d feel better at the sight of Carrie being left at the altar. I didn’t.)
And after coming across this Elle Decor spread of the amazing sets created for the film, I still don’t want to see the movie. But I do want to live in Carrie and Big’s apartment (I’d gladly take up a cot in their closet, too).
Click here for the rest of the photos and info about individual pieces used on set.
And I have to ask, what did you guys think of the movie?
“My father said, ‘I can get a maid for my daughter. I don’t want her in the movies playing maids.’ ” is a quote that pretty much sums up the moxie of legendary performer Lena Horne, who died on Sunday at the age of 92.
According to the New York Times, Horne was the first black performer to be signed to a long term contract by a major Hollywood studio. If you’re not familiar with Horne’s illustrious career or her work in advancing civil rights, the Times‘ brief synopsis of her awe-inpsiring life is not to be missed.
After the jump, find some of our favorite photos of the sophisticatedly stunning singer and her signature looks — turbans, in-hair florals and one-shouldered dresses, among them.
