I have some white with black floral stamping nails today, for the Twinsie Tuesday prompt, which is to create something inspired by your favourite movie.

I can’t quite decide what my favourite movie is. I have a top five, in no particular order: La Vita é Bella/Life Is Beautiful, The Shawshank Redemption, The Italian Job (original version), The Life of Brian and Cinema Paradiso. But I just couldn’t find anything from them to be inspired by. So I went a bit further down my list. One of my top 10 movies would be Rear Window, the Hitchcock film starring James Stewart and Grace Kelly.

In one scene, Grace Kelly’s character comes round to visit while her boyfriend is laid up with a broken leg. She wears an exquisite dress. It’s quite over the top bearing in mind all she seems to be doing is visiting her boyfriend for the evening. It has a fitted black bodice, then a full, mid-calf, white chiffon and tulle skirt. The skirt has small black floral accents coming down from the waistband.

I haven’t captured the exact look of the dress’s trim. I couldn’t find a good enough stamping plate to match the dress. But this look is very much inspired by the dress, and beautiful Grace Kelly.
