Would You Wear a Titanic-Inspired Fragrance?

Mar 26, 2012 @ 3:30 pm

QVC launched a fragrance to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, and the scent has a story as compelling as Jack and Rose‘s! Legacy 1912 Titanicä is based on the perfume vials brought onboard by passenger and British perfumer Adolphe Saafield. He survived the ship’s crash, but his scents remained on the ocean floor until they were recently recovered by RMS Titanic Inc, and replicated for QVC’s fragrance!  The delicate blend of rose, amber, and fresh lemon is available for $69 at qvc.com. Tell us, would you wear a Titanic-inspired scent?

Who Will Star in the New Great Gatsby?

Nov 5, 2010 @ 12:19 pm

It’s the most coveted part since the Lisbeth Salander role in Girl With the Dragon Tattoo! Many of young Hollywood’s leading ladies are vying to play pampered rich girl Daisy Buchanan in the adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic novel, The Great Gatsby. Speculation swirled earlier this week that Blake Lively is in the running after she was spotted dining in New York City with Leonardo DiCaprio, who is reportedly playing Jay Gatsby, and director Baz Luhrmann.

Other actresses reportedly being considered for the role include Scarlett Johansson, Michelle Williams, Amanda Seyfried and Kiera Knightley.

Which actress do you think would make the best Daisy Buchanan?
