Obsession: ESPN Magazine

Since today is dedicated to honoring St. Valentine, I feel it's only right to get in the holiday spirit with some much-needed eye candy. Below are some fabulous shots from a recent ESPN The Magazine photoshoot (yes, ESPN) of some of this year's top athletes recreating iconic album covers. Two entertainment professions collide and the result is pure bliss. Enjoy!

Obsession: Audrey Hepburn (and old movies!)

It's no secret that I adore Audrey Hepburn (though I may not have revealed that here until now). I also often fantasize about what it must have been like to live during Hollywood's glory days (what I like to call "Old Hollywood") a la Midnight in Paris. For no reason other than that — and the fact that I find summer the best time to catch up on film classics — I am providing the blogosphere with a list of unmissable Hepburn films. Please see them, I beg of you.

1. Charade
Honestly I find it difficult putting into words how wonderful this film is and am surprised that it doesn't seem to receive praise more often as one of Hepburn's — and Cary Grant's — career greats. There was even a remake in 2002 starring Mark Wahlberg and Thandie Newton (re: The Truth About Charlie). Check out the original trailer below.

2. How to Steal a Million
This lovely 1960s romp pairs Hepburn with Peter O'Toole and is set in Paris (like so many of her flicks) as they hilariously try to steal back a fake statue.

3. Funny Face
What do you get when you pair Audrey Hepburn with Fred Astaire? Movie magic; pure movie magic. (Let's not forget the equally wonderful Kay Thompson either.) If I'm not swaying you, maybe this Gap commercial, featuring a remixed scene from the movie, will.

4. Wait Until Dark
In this riveting thriller, Hepburn plays a blind woman whose home is invaded by three thugs in search of a heroin-stuffed doll they believe is somewhere inside. She is fantastic, but I'm sure you're sensing by now that I may be a little biased.

5. Roman Holiday
Last but not least, I've included this gem on the list because it earned Hepburn her Academy Award for Best Actress. Not too shabby.

Major Flip Out: TOMS Eyewear

Okay, so if you know me even a teeny bit, you know that I absolutely love TOMS (to death), so imagine my delight when I visited their website to browse shoe styles this morning and discovered they have a new product: eyewear! *squeal*

New sunglasses for a cause?! I am over-the-moon sold. Not to mention, I'm liking the style previews. TOMS keep doing what you're doing (and props to joining the marketing bandwagon ... we all know I am for that, too.)

Also, can I get a pair and make them my actual, prescription spectacles?
