Nanny Fierceness

'Runway' look for 'Eloise'
'Eloise is getting a fierce wardrobe.
Christian Siriano, winner of last season's "Project Runway" and self-described "fierce" designer, will create the couture collection that will be showcased in HandMade Films' upcoming "Eloise in Paris." Academy Award-winning costume designer Milena Canonero has come on board the film as visual consultant.
Siriano's designs will be featured in the culminating scene of the Charles Shyer-helmed film, when Eloise (Jordana Beatty) and Nanny (Uma Thurman) attend Paris Fashion Week.
Stefania Cella is the production designer and costume designer on the film.
"Eloise in Paris," which is based on the series of classic children's books written by Kay Thompson and illustrated by Hilary Knight, begins principal photography Sept. 8 in Paris, New York and the south of France.
Siriano was the TV reality series' youngest winner ever at age 22.
'Project Runway' winner Christian Siriano will have a couture collection featured in 'Eloise in Paris.''

Tagged!
T$ tagged me with a book meme.
The rules for this one is similar to one I did a while ago, but this time I have a different book.
1. Pick up the nearest book.
2. Open to page 123.
3. Locate the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences on your blog and in so doing...
5. Tag five people, and acknowledge who tagged me.
So here's mine from the King Of Run-On Sentences, Bret Easton Ellis:
Can you name the book?''The bus pulled away from the curb before everyone was seated and hurled back onto the highway.
I tried to read the book but couldn't.
It started to rain, the sound of the Talking Heads coming from the cassette player, the girls passing Diet Pepsi and nachos back and forth and trying to flirt with me, the incessant yapping from the college boys in back, someone smoking clove cigarettes, an occasional joint, talking about how som slut named Ursula was f-cked by some guy named Phil in the back of some guy's Toyota Nissan named Mark and how Ursula lied to Phil and said it wasn't his baby but he paid for the abortion anyway and it was all so irritating I couldn't even concentrate on anything.'

Jeff over at Pop-O-Matic has a nifty little post.
'Grab the book closest to you. Open it to page 123 and type the 5th sentence on the page here in my comments.'
Here's mine:
'Moreover, during this time under the bridal veil, she connects with the souls of her children, her grandchildren, her great-grandchildren, forward to the time when messianic consciousness will change our perspective of reality.'
'God Is A Verb - Kabbalah and the Practice of Mystical Judaism'
What's yours?
