I have been called a
sparkle diva and a glitter critter and a magpie. The fashion world’s current
preoccupation with things sparkly is only just catching up to me. Bejeweled
shoes, rhinestone pins, twinkling earrings, I’ve been wearing them for ages,
darling. Glass, rhinestone, crystal, diamond, zircon, ruby, emerald; I’ve
donned the faux and the real, the precious and the semi.
But three days ago I was
given the most beautiful bit of dazzle for my finger that I have ever seen: an
engagement ring of diamonds and a single sapphire. Yes! Tyler gave me an
engagement ring and officially asked me to marry him!
And so began my search for
my inner bride, hopefully to uncover the true meaning of holy matrimony.

It's awesome to be reminded of how louis vuitton outlet much Nolan took from this work to make his Batman Universe (the ultra military Bamobile, the Bane take on the Mutant gang uprising, the "retirement." etc.) While I've no issue http://www.lakesideshopping.com/store1.html on Nolan's reimagining, I like seeing the original work getting some of its just due. While a live action piece is probably out of the question, I would have preferred to louis vuitton outlet see a CGI/contemporary animation take on it, however. The standard cell art approach fails to really bring out the graphic guts chanel replica of Miller's landmark piece.
