The Boy Goes to Ipanema
July 29th, 2008We’ll take anything that reminds us of Brazil at this point. We’ve been withering in heat from Denver to Brooklyn, and all we want is to be in a place where these kinds of temperatures can be tolerated. That place in our mind is Rio de Janeiro. To be specific, the beaches, the warm water…heck, the meat on a stick!
While we might never get our ridiculous Brazilian fantasy to come true, we can recommend the movie that spawned this fantasy, That Man From Rio. The 1964 movie stars Jean-Paul Belmondo at the height of his nearly obscene attractiveness and features a series of implausible, yet marvelous adventures that takes him from Paris to Rio to the Amazon in less than a week. The glamour of the 1960’s is in full effect from the car chases to Modernist houses hosting cocktail parties in Rio.
Let this necklace made from a small piece of Brazilian Fern dipped in silver be a little reminder of all those places you’d love to go in life and things you’d love to do – it’s never too late…even if Jean-Paul won’t be there looking fabulous.
