Animation! 

Here's a fun fact.

The word "animation" stems from the Latin "animātiōn", stem of "animātiō", meaning "a bestowing of life", and that, if you ask us, could not be more appropriate. Animated movies have the scope and freedom to capture life in a way quite unlike any other medium, even if it is essentially just still figures manipulated to appear as if they are moving. But this is a simple definition for something beautiful in its complexity. It comes in many, many forms too: traditional animation, rotoscoping, anime, cut out, 3D animation, stop motion, motion graphics... all of these mediums and more can capture the beauty, humor, strangeness, and indeed violence of life with endless creativity.

As it happens, 2023 is something of a vintage year for #animation, with the release of Nimona, Ruby Gillman: Teenage Kraken, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, Suzume, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman, and Unicorn Wars. There is an abundance to come, too, with the return of anime master, and suspected final film, from Hayao Miyazaki, a fresh new take on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the conclusion of the long-running ancestral trauma pageant The Venture Bros., and even another Chicken Run. It's a good, good year, despite it all.

Alexander McQueen Denim Jacket

This cool jacket is on my wishlist. In reality I would only be able to attain it if somebody rich gives it to me, but I can dream! 

I love the sharp cut out details on the sleeves. The structured cut and cinched waist will flatter a curvy or slim figure. 

I adore when designers put their own unique spin on denim.
