A Little Party Never Killed Nobody

Hey dears!

(Elizabeth just posted about this so our posts basically cover the same things...haha)

Anyway, I had been pining away to see The Great Gatsby since it came out a few weeks ago and last Friday I finally saw it! It was nothing shy of spectacular, to say the least.

Where do I begin? The love story, the clothes, the characters, the scenery, the acting, the parties.... I could rave on and on.

For those of you who aren't familiar with the story, Nick Carroway has just moved to New York and his neighbor, Jay Gatsby, throws these extravagant parties all the time with tons of people. No one, however, actually knows who Jay is or what he looks like. Nick's cousin, Daisy, lives just across the water from him and is married to Tom, who is a total jerk. Tom is cheating on Daisy with Myrtle and everyone knows it except for Daisy and Myrtle's husband.

I don't want to give too much away but let's just say that Daisy and Jay have a little thing for each other..... Oh goodness it is too good! Leonardo Dicaprio is simply amazing as Gatsby.

This movie makes me want to throw a huge soiree and dance the night away, while dressed to the nines in feathers and glitter.

"And I like large parties. They're so intimate. At small parties there isn't any privacy." 

Oh and did I mention I am completely obsessed with Daisy? 

How could I forget to mention the music? I can't stop listening to it on repeat on my trusty Spotify. It is phenomenal. 

If you have the chance to see it, definitely do! 

Have you seen the Great Gatsby?
