Throwback throw down...

After spending yesterday afternoon watching Kiki play ancient Nintendo games like Donkey Kong and Mario Kart (she even scored Duck Hunt and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!), I am in a bit of a nostaligc mood.

A friend sent me this link this morning and it immediately took me back to our junior high school days of "quality" TV- 90210, Clarissa Explains It All, Small Wonder, SNICK, Tales from the Crypt, TGIF, and (of course) American Gladiators.

Sit back, grab some mulit-colored PopSecret, and enjoy.

A dorky joke.

I cannot claim credit for this joke, I just saw it in another woman’s blog, and I had to share:

What do you call a woman who sells herself for plants?

A garden ho.

Oh you know that’s a good one.

Oscar

OMG Trish, words can not express how awful that pic is.

And while Kiki did an excellent job of covering the Academy Awards, it is such a huge event that I feel that it deserves more coverage. I must say that I was very happy that Eddie Murphy lost the Best Supporting Actor. I feel that he doesn't deserve anything good since he knocked Scary Spice up and denied it... scum.

In terms of fashion... I have to support the fashion choices of some of my fellow blondes:

Reese. This woman is amazing! She is my role model. I feel like she always makes wonderful fashion choices. The color of the dress makes her eyes pop. And I love that she's not doing the jewelry. The blonde hair and bangs are enough of an accesory. I am sure that after seeing Reese at the Oscars Ryan is regretting cheating on her and destroying their marriage.

Portia. It always suprises me that she is with Ellen, but whatev. I loved her dress, and the back of it was simply amazing. I am suprised that both she and Maggie were able to pull of the black and blue without looking like walking bruises. Well done ladies!

And of course there were the typical disasters. I actually thought that J-Lo's dress made her look preggers. A good dress if she is, but if not....

I was horribly disappointed by the following two women:

Anne and Meryl.

I mean, these two women starred in the Devil Wears Prada! They got to wear such fabulous outfits in the movie, and they choose these disasters for the Oscars? I mean Meryl was up for an award, and she chose that thing??? (I dont event know what she is wearing, but it can't be called a dress). And while I love bows, Anne's dress is just disgusting. Both of these women would have been better wearing one of Anne's pre-makeover outfits from the movie. Where was Nigel when they needed him? At least Emily Blunt redemeemed the cast somewhat...

Anyhow, so sad that Award Season is over. Can't wait till next year!

Tin Man meets Hustler?

So my Oscar post will be coming later tonight I hope...but I just found this pic in my blog researching and I really have no words, more like "WTF fashion?" That's about it.

Academy Awards

Well, people, this is it: the mother of all award shows, the Academy Awards. The show ran waaaay too long, what with all the modern dancers and homages to various people we care nothing about. I liked the lead-in with all of the nominees and I thought that Ellen did a pretty good job. But who cares about all that? On to the fashion:

The best (in no particular order):

Helen Mirren. Oooh-la-la. I believe that THIS is the definition of a silver fox. Gorgeous color, gorgeous cut. She's so well poised, just love her! Definitely deserving of the Oscar.

J. Lo. I looooooved this dress with the beading along the neckline- no need for jewelry. I wasn't absolutely wild about the color but it definitely went along with the blush tones that are so popular right now. Also, didn't love the hair but it wasn't nearly as offensive as last year's Oscars, so I'll give her props. The dress looked very vintage and just looked great on her. Well played.

Cate, oh Cate. I've said it before and I'll say it again: you are a GODDESS. I absolutely adored this Armani dress, espeically the material! Very shimmery but not over-done bling. The one shoulder was done perfectly and didn't have the obnoxious cut-off/strangling look that a lot of them do. Gorgeous detailing on the bottom, and her earring were incredible. She's my idol.

Nicole Kidman. Laaaady in reeeeeeeed. Good song, good dress. Again, Nicole is an absolute fashion icon and she definitely keeps it up with this gorgeous number. I'm not normally a huge red fan but I adore this dress and the contrast of the color with her skin and hair. The bow detail was the right scale (unlike Charlize Theron's snafu from last year) while still being breathtaking. On a side note, I was VERY dissapointed to see that Nicole had "poufed up" her lips a bit. Not cool. Not cool at all.

Maggie Gyllenhal looked incredible. She was one of the first people on the red carpet and definitely got me excited for things to come. I was underwhelmed by the rest of the crew after seeing this lovely number. I looooove the navy/black combo: it's the perfect mix of elegant and hip. The feathers on the bottom as well as in her hair are wonderful and playful. The strap detail is great, and I love the subdued sequins, very similar to Felicity Huffman's Globes dress. Faboo.

The WORST:

Cameron Diaz. This white number is just weird and ill-fitting. I like the neckline with the foldover detail, but the hem and the fit throughout her lower half is just not good. Look at all those wrinkles across her hips! Ouch. For someone with such an incredible body, this just does nothing for her. Plus, if your dress is going to showcase your shoes as much as this one does, make sure you've got some kickass shoes (not those) and that you pay attention to what you're doing with your feet! This picture is okay but the majority of the night she looked like a spaz. Also, Cam, you are waaaaay too brown/orange for February. I mean really, look at Nicole and Maggie and how beautiful their skin is! There's no need to be this tanorexic.

Gwyneth, I'm happy to see that at least you wore a bra to this year's Awards: a definite improvement over last year. But this color is sooo wrong. The dress is very pretty, but it's just not Oscar material. I also don't like how she's got her hair all swept to one side- it covers the detailing of the dress! Also, the super red lips just don't go with the muted tones of the gown.

Ohhh, Beyonce, Beyonce, Beyonce. I know you're trying hard and I'm glad that your mother is no longer making your clothes, trust me. You just always seem to fall so very short. Her hair and makeup looks soooo much better than it has in the past. Yay! But, this mint green dress is just horrible with the beading across the shoulder. It's shocking, as its made by the same peeps that made Cate's stunner above. So sad. I don't think they designed it with the idea of the slit being shown quite this openly, but hey, it's Beyonce- at least she's not doing her usual armpit shot.

Kirsten Dunst looks craptastic, as usual. A Peter Pan collar is never, NEVER suitable at the Oscars. That's like rule #1. Duh. I like the silver color on her, but the dress is again, very ill-fitting through the mid section which does nothing for her body. I looove feathers, but these are a little out of control. Note Maggie's feathers above for a bit of insight into how feathers can actually be done on the red carpet. I also hate the straight-across bangs on her and the super red lipstick. Not a good choice.

Jennifer Hudson. Everyone was rooting for her, everyone wanted to dress her, and she chose THIS? Looks like a Wet Seal hand me down, not good for the Oscars. She had been doing so well! I was very happy to see that she took it off for the actual show- I'm sure her publicist informed her that people were hating it. The brown dress underneath is very pretty and I love the color on her. I'm not a huge fan of her hair all to one side, but the soft curls are pretty.

Best dressed....

Today, it's got to go to good ole Honest Abe. This man is 1/2 the reason that I didn't have to go to work yesterday, and I've got to say I appreciate it. Thank you, you debonaire style star of a president.

The Worst:

Does anything really need to be said here?

Diapers

Did you guys hear about the astronaut lady? She came back from space and I guess wanted to see her lover, who she thought was having an affair. So she drove 4,000 miles to go find him wearing a diaper. Yes a diaper so she wouldn't have to stop and pee... My question is wouldn't she have to stop for gas anyway? I just thought I would share that because it made me feel better about my life....

Only a day late....

I know I shared the awesomeness of this site in email form already, but I just had to share for the world to know, granted it is a day late. But hey, it’s the thought that counts…

Red Carpet Fun...

Happy Monday, friends! Time for this week's Best and Worst.

Best:

Toni Collette at the BAFTA Awards.

I'm a bit obsessed with Toni to begin with (Muriel's Wedding is just about the best movie ever), but I looove this gray/silver number with the luxe fur shawl. Very glamourous... something that was definitely missing from the Grammys on the other side of the pond. Ladies, THIS is what you're supposed to look like on the red carpet. No dresses that show off your hoo-ha. Hear that, Pussycat Dolls?

The Worst:

Imogen Heap at the Grammy's.

Waaaaaaaaaay too much going on here and I really could have done without plant in her hair. But, I do have to say that I love that there are still crazies like this out in the world. I miss Bjork.

And an honorable mention:

This is a bit random as it has absolutely nothing to do with fashion, but Chris Brown's performance last night at the Grammy's was absolutely incredible. I think my jaw was on the floor the entire time. I'm definitely going to YouTube it and watch it 2309757093 times today.

Hearts

To continue with this theme of animals and valentines, I would like to share some news about my favorite valentine's candy - the conversation heart.

Necco, the makers of conversation hearts have come up with 10 new saying for Valentine's 2007. They have decided to "pay tribute" to the animal lovers of America, and their 10 new saying are all animal inspired... My Pet, Bear Hug, Go Fish, Love Bird, Take a Walk, Purr Fect, Cool Cat, Top Dog, Puppy Love, and the best of the bunch... URA Tiger. While these new conversations are enjoyable, they can't beat my personal favorite... Fax Me.

Oh and p.s. did any of you ever play that game where you take a handful of conversation hearts, and sit in a circle, and you have to tell a story, but each person needs to use a heart saying when it's their turn??? I loved that game.

Roses are Red, Violets are Blue...

...I'm curious about Valentine's Day,
Are you?

I know that Valentine's Day is not until next week, but seeing as it is a slow week here at the office, I decided to do a little digging. And as usual, my potentially-untruthful yet fave source pulled through again. Wikipedia defines this Hallmark holiday as "the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other; sending Valentine's cards, candy, flowers, or donations to charities, often anonymously." Hmm...they left out covering an old shoebox in red construction paper, stickers, doilies, and candy hearts, then debating for hours whether to give the best 3" x 2" Looney Tunes card to the best friend or to the crush.

Let's have a little history lesson, shall we? Compliments of Wikipedia, of course.

Valentinius of Alexandria (c. 100 - c. 153). Besides having an unfortunate name, he was an influential Gnostic teacher and a candidate for Bishop of Rome in 143 AD. (Gnostic = early Christian sect of super smart men who thought they were the shit.) In Valentinius's teachings, the marriage bed assumed a central place in his version of Christian love. SHOCKING! Well, not to us, but it was certainly a revolutionary idea to other people. These other people must have been like my grandparents, who to this day refuse to turn in their 1950s-style twin beds for a queen size.

Fertility Festivals in Ancient Greece. I know we are all jealous of those ancient Greek hornballs. The middle of February was associated with love and fertility, so it was an especially saucy time. And in ancient Rome, February 15 was Lupercalia (which I guess was also some fertility festival...or should I say ORGY.)

Volantynys Day in the Middle Ages. The first recorded association of Valentine's Day with romantic love is in Parlement of Foules (1382) by Geoffrey Chaucer:

For this was on seynt Volantynys day
Whan euery bryd comyth there to chese [chose] his make [mate].

This poem was written (and poorly spelled!) to honor the first anniversary of the engagement of King Richard II of England to Anne of Bohemia. A marriage treaty was signed on May 2, 1381. The two lovebirds were married eight months later, when they were both about 14 (!) years old. (I was still getting lost on the way home from school when I was 14. Marriage was the furthest thing from my mind.)

On the liturgical calendar, May 2 is the saints' day for Valentine of Genoa. This St. Valentine was an early bishop of Genoa who died around AD 307. Some idiots along the way incorrectly assumed that Chaucer was referring to February 14 as Valentine's Day. However, I don't know about you, but I would think that mid-February is a highly unlikely time for birds to be mating in frigid cold England.

The High Court of SEX. Using the language of the law courts for the rituals of courtly love, a "High Court of Love" was established in Paris on Valentine's Day in 1400. The court dealt with love contracts, betrayals, and violence against women. Judges were selected by women on the basis of a poetry reading. (The French would do it like this, those maniacs.) The earliest surviving valentine dates from 1415. It is a poem written by Charles, Duke of Orleans, to his wife. At the time, the duke was being held in the Tower of London following his capture at the Battle of Agincourt.

Valentine's Day Makes It to the States. Like scurvy, TB, and bad teeth, the idea of Valentine's Day was probably imported into North America in the 19th century by British settlers. The first mass-produced valentines of embossed paper lace were produced and sold shortly after 1847 by Esther Howland of Worcester, Massachusetts. Her father operated a large book and stationery store, and she took her inspiration from an English valentine she had received.

V-Day Today. In the second half of the 20th century, people went nuts. They had disposable income, so they wasted it on the usually-pointless exchange of cards. Other gifts entered the picture too--roses, chocolate, condoms, etc. In the 1980s, the diamond industry began to promote Valentine's Day as an occasion for giving jewelry. (DeBeers family, you are too smart! No wonder we banned you from this country and forbid you from ever returning!)

And here is a final thought for all of you now bored with learning about Valentine's Day: approximately EIGHTY-FIVE PERCENT of all Valentine's cards are sent BY WOMEN! Are you surprised?

Woof.

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Many fur or fur-trimmed jackets sold in the United States as having "faux fur" -- or not labeled at all -- are actually made, at least in part, from dog fur, the Humane Society of the United States said at a Capitol Hill news conference Wednesday.
Out of 25 jackets that it tested, the group said, 24 were incorrectly labeled. In many cases, it said, tests showed the fur came from raccoon dogs, nocturnal residents of Asian and northern European forests that bear a remarkable resemblance to raccoons.
It said it had bought the jackets in the United States from a variety of department stores, including Macy's, Burlington Coat Factory and J.C. Penney. Designers and brands included Sean John, Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger, it said.

It's disgustingly obvious that even the faux-est of faux fur is designed to resemble a slain animal. While I find it more tacky than fashionable, I realize that the popular winter-wear adornment is not going anywhere and until recently has been an easily dismissible eyesore. I suppose it's now naive to think that stores who carry faux fur would, gee, I don't know - label them correctly?

People who are interested in/purchase them fall into two categories: those who would buy real fur if they could afford it without an ounce of moral guilt, and those who wouldn't knowingly wear an animal slain in the name of fashion but like to sport the look without weighing heavily on the conscience. I find the former to be nearly beyond help. I can only hope that at some point in life, they will have an epiphany that resembles the deer hunter's come-to-Jesus moment in the movie Powder.

Many of the latter will probably not go so far as to stop wearing the dog-trimmed items from their Penney's/Macy's winter wardrobe, but I hope it will keep them from purchasing another (not that sales will go through the roof once they're accurately labeled as "fur stripped from the body of a poor defenseless animal - and not just any animal, but a dog, a distant cousin of your own little Scrappy").

I realize that animals are used for our benefit in hundreds of [appalling] ways, but there's a fine line between consuming meat (albeit selfishly) for its taste and nutritional content (that could admittedly be found in animal-friendly products) and viewing animals with such selfish disregard so as to view them as nothing but a material with which to line carseats or a new floor-length coat to show off in circles of women truly named Kitty. Great strides have been made to make the process of butchering animals for their meat as humane as possible, keeping them calm in moments leading up to their quick death (I highly recommend "My Life in Pictures" by Temple Grandin), but the trapping, beating, and other cruel measures taken to capture and kill an animal for its fur aren't done with an ounce of compassion.

Time to wake up and feel some social responsibility. If the idea of stripping rabbits and minks doesn't hit close to home, hopefully the dogs hanging on clothes racks in Macy's will do the trick.

You know you're in Hollywood when.....

You see a license plate holder that says “I AM A SCIENTOLOGIST”

Good lord. Er good alien? I don't know really. I would have assumed it was Tom and Katie’s car , except it was a also covered with tacky stickers, I don’t think they’d do that. Tom just leaves the tacky for couch jumping on Oprah.

Best and Worst

Hello again friends,

I apparently missed out on my best/worst reviews of the SAG awards last week! I apologize, I know many of you wait for it all week... har har. This week's almost didn't happen as well! My flight home last night was seriously delayed by a sweet little bird who thought it was smart to nest in my airplane's engine. I'm going to go ahead an apologize for whatever may be typed here... I'm running on very little sleep. So, without further adue:


Best:

Cate, Cate, Cate. She's a goddess. An absolute goddess!

I love, love, LOVE the gold with her pale skin and hair color. So fresh and young looking- not trying to look all Miami-ed out, which I appreciate this time of year. Many people couldn't have pulled off this look, but she's so haute couture! I almost always love what she's wearing. A fashion genius.







Worst:



Terrifying. It takes a lot to go from being my best dressed one week to my worst the next. Sienna apparently didn't get the message that Bridget Jones' granny panties were meant to keep you away from hooking up and should definitely never be seen in public, especially n a leather version. She also needs to take care of those split ends. Ew.

Twins!

I would like to announce that on yesterday, Feb. 1 2007, Patrick Dempsey's wife, Jillian, gave birth to twin boys! Darby Galen and Sullivan Patrick... they sound like Irish names to me! Now if only Marcia Cross could hurry up and give birth... I can't wait for Dempsey's boys to have playdates with her (hopefully girl) twins. Yay for babies.

Lindsay Lohan song. Ha.

Okay so one more post to add. I just found this song and it made me laugh. Tristan is quite the funny lady. Her song “Love, love, love” is amazing and I love it. But this song just makes me laugh. Lindsay Lohan, take note, she makes some good points here, haha.

Harry Potta!

Okay so I actualy haven't read any of the Harry Potter books but I am a fan of the movies. And in honor of the announcement of the last book, I thought I would share this funny picture I found while researching today. Oh I love my job.

Inconceivable!

Okay, so huge, HUGE realization today. Are you ready for it? It's life changing. Seriously.

Adding a period to an email address does nothing. NOTHING I tell you! jacksmith@gmail.com is the same as jack.smith@gmail.com and the same a j.a.c.k.s.m.i.t.h.@gmail.com. AMAAAAAZING.

You just can't put two periods next to each other. That changes things. Trust me, I tried.

Does anyone else feel like the world has just been pushed a little bit off its axis????

Spice!

Well, even though this is slightly old news, I had to make this post so we no longer have to see Harry Potter naked when we first look at our blog... Posh Spice has made comments saying that Baby Spice (who is pregnant with her boyfriend of 8 year's baby) will make an excellent mummy. YAY! Its about time Baby had a baby. Now if only Sporty could get knocked up, all the Spice children could have a playdate (or form their own band...)

AAARRGH!!!!!

Harry Potter, PUT YOUR CLOTHES BACK ON RIGHT THIS INSTANT!!! This picture makes me want to vomit and scream at the same time. Apparently, poor confused Daniel Radcliffe (who shall forever be known as Harry Potter...or maybe now Hairy Potter, har har) is playing some naked character in the West End production of Equus. What does the word Equus mean? "Caress horses and women while naked?" No, it actually means "a genus of the family Equidae that includes horses, asses, zebras, and other mammals." Oh. Right. That makes sense. NOT.

It looks like the almost-eighteen year old has done some lifting, which is good because I researched the play and he is actually totally nude for certain scenes. I don't know and I don't WANT to know if the horses are in those naked scenes. But the fact that we can almost see his man area is frightening. I have a soft spot in my heart for nerds, and I always thought that Daniel Radcliffe (as Harry Potter) was cute, and maybe wished that there would be a future love scene between him and some girl (Hermione? Cho? me?). Unfortunately, this picture could very well affect the way I feel when I try to enjoy the next Harry Potter movie. And make me feel gross.

Donations for the Buy Daniel Radcliffe Some Self-Tanner Fund are currently being accepted.

hi

Hi all...I'm finally on this thing!!

Grey's Update

I have some sad news to share with you all. According to an article on AOL, T.R. Knight (George) is going to be leaving the cast of Grey's Anatomy. Sooooo sad. Even though I have never been a fan of George's, I will miss him on the show. After the Golden Globes fiasco, he feels the the atmosphere on set is too toxic. Isaiah, is apparently not homophobic, but has a history of not getting along with castmates. He once got into a fight with a co-star when the other actor missed his cue. Although Burke is currently my favorite on the show, Isaiah needs to get his act together.

Snakes on a Plane

I have noticed that snakes have been making a wide comeback recently. And by "snakes," I mean all slithering reptiles. In the movies, we started off with 1997's Anaconda (definitely NOT J Lo's finest film):

Then, there was the basilisk (AKA huge snake with poisonous fangs) in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, as well as all the other snake references throughout the series:

And most recently, we had the Samuel L. Jackon cult flick Snakes on a Plane:

There are definitely other movies out there that featured snakes...but I'm not a huge fan of snakes, so I didn't see those movies and therefore do not know what they are.

Snakes permeate our everyday lives as well. Why, just today I was perusing through the news and came across an article about a python in Kuala Lumpur who inhaled at the very least ELEVEN guard dogs! The hounds were protecting a fruit orchard, but apparently met their demise when they came face to face with the 23 foot long reptile. Thankfully, some people got wise to the fact that their canines were disappearing. The snake was caught by villagers, though not harmed. He was simply tied to a tree. I hope it was a big tree...I mean, a 23 foot long snake has got to be pretty strong, right? And how do you even tie a snake to a tree? Wouldn't it slither out? Well, no matter. Wildlife officials took over from there.

Those villagers don't look the least bit sad about their dead dogs. I would be so pissed that I had not only lost my companion but also my employee, that I would not look quite so delighted at the prospect of holding this spitting, sin-causing beast. Anyway, this all leads to the question that I would like you to ponder: Are snakes taking over the world? (Or have they already done so?)


PS
I know that this article is really random. It has been that kind of day.

Lovewrecked

I know this blog is a little late, but for those of you who did nothing on Sunday night (like me) and felt pathetic because you were doing nothing (like me), you supressed your pathetic feelings (like me) and watched ABC Family's new cinematic masterpiece, Lovewrecked. God do I love ABC Family! This particular treat featured up-and-coming Amanda Bynes, star of What a Girl Wants and She's the Man (I also warmly remember her as part of the cast of All That way back when on Nickelodeon).

Bynes plays Jenny Riley, a gal who has just graduated high school and is waaaay too into herself for her own good. For the summer, she's working at a tropical resort with her best friend Ryan [no last name]. Ryan is none other than hottie Jonathan Bennet, AKA Aaron Samuels from Mean Girls. Mmmm...he was the reason I kept watching this movie. He's delicious. And unfortunately, he was forced to pretend he was head over heels with BF Jenny, but was too much of a pansy to actually do anything about it until the last five minutes. How am I supposed to believe that such a gorgeous specimin of the male gender would have confidence issues?

Anyway, Jenny is totes def obsessed with Jason Masters, a famous rock GOD who is played by a very uninspiring Chris Carmack (no idea what he's been in before). Jenny and Jason (I love the alliteration here) end up on some cruise together in the middle of a storm. Jason has eaten some bad soup (haven't we all...) and tragically falls overboard as he's ralphing into the sea. As her crush is swept further and further away from the boat, Jenny slips into lifeguard mode. She hurls an inflatible raft into the water and dives in after her man. I probably would not have done this...unless it was for Justin Timberlake...

The storm eventually ends and Jenny and Jason find themselves on what they believe to be a deserted island. As the description on the ABC Family website explains, "It's like a dream come true...until some unexpected complications rock the boat." UH OH! Turns out that they aren't on a deserted island at all! Jenny discovers this and surreptitiously sneaks back to the resort to get bananas, oysters, and fish (which she smuggles into the ocean in her bathing suit, then puts on a show for Jason to make him think she's caught them with her bare hands...I guess one reason that it's good that Amanda Bynes has no boobs).

But alas, someone figures out Jenny's secret: the bitchy popular girl working at the resort, who is equally as obsessed with Jason Masters. Alexis is played by Jamie-Lynn DiScala, more commonly known as Tony Soprano's daughter Meadow. She pretends to be stranded on the island too in order to woo Jason, though she switches between French and Hawaiian accents throughout the rest of the movie. This is either a testament to her amazing acting ability, or the stupidity of the editors for not noticing these blatent flaws.

Okay, I have a confession to make. This was the point in the movie when I realized that Cold Mountain was on another channel, and Jude Law won. Sure, I kept switching back to Lovewrecked during the commercials, and I feel like I got the best of both worlds this way. On the island, the love triangle managed to live for a while longer, then Ryan somehow figured out that Jenny was nearby and saved her during a huge monsoon. They fled to a cave, lit a fire, he demonstrated that he actually has some confidence and she accepted the fact that she's a stuck-up snot, and they kissed (no tongue). The movie ended with Jason singing to his new wife, Alexis, on stage at some super hot rock concert. The rest is ABC Family history. I recommend Lovewrecked if you're looking for good laugh, a drinking game, or if you're babysitting.

Jude Law's gorgeousness continued for another hour or so, since there were so many dang commercials, but MAN he is so hot. Even with his Civil War-style beard that by the end of the movie I'm sure must have had bugs living in it. Mmmmm. As always, I cried at the end when he died.

Monday's Best and Worst

This week was tough to find someone who was dressed half decently:

The Best:

Keri Russell. She looks super cute in her scarf and hat and y'all know how I love a side pony. I love all the stars in Park City and at Sundance with their scarves and sweaters. It's so much more refreshing then seeing them all glammed up.

Annnnnd, do you notice that glow? That's right, she's pregnant! So cute.

And now, the worst:

Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams. Don't get me wrong, I love this couple. Rachel was even my style icon for a bit! But what is up with the bleach blonde/pink hair? I'm seriously hoping it's for a role. And Ryan, the child molester mustache needs to go.

What's the Time?

Has anyone else noticed that this blog seems to be on west coast time? Why? I mean, no offense to you fine ladies out in Cali, but webpages usually use Eastern Standard Time as the default setting. It just made me curious.

Isaiah vs. Grey's

How are you all feeling about this craziness? I'm so confused and torn about how I feel!

As angry as I am at Isaiah for saying what he said, I'm concerned what's going to happen the show. I know that some groups are asking for fans to protest ABC and the show and Isaiah will most likely be fired. My obsession with the show and the Dr. Burke character is obviously taking over here, but I don't want him to leave! How could he? Would he be killed off in true primetime drama form? Egads!

On the other hand, what he said (specifically because he said it about a castmate) would call for immediate firing in any other workplace. Just because he's a main character on an incredibly successful show doesn't mean he can get away with this kind of thing. It's disgraceful and perhaps firing him would lead to more tolerance and awareness in this country. I hate the word that he used and I can't imagine saying it, EVER, much less repeatedly. I am always saddened when I hear "random joe's" use it but it was horrendous when he said it on television at such a popular event. It's just not okay in my book.

When it comes down to it, I think I'd be okay with sacrificing one of my favorite television characters in hopes of more equality for homosexuals in this country. Fire away, ABC.

Ummm.....

Okay so shoot me, I’m a posting whore. But in my blog research I just came across these shoes and I really want them. Haha. No, not really. What would PETA say??? These are crazy looking, yet also somewhat comfy. I do not know. But I felt like I should share.

I Put the R in Rad.

I just wanted to share the second best t-shirt out there. Funny story, I’m actually wearing it. Right now. Today. Haha. This shirt only comes second to the “Everyone loves a Mixed Girl” shirt that I have yet to find for myself. But the day will come. Haha. Everyone knows I like to wear words on my shirt, so here is another great one. Woo eee. Happy “Grey’s is on tonight and I’ll tape CSI: and watch it later” Thursday!

Mmmmmm....

I couldn't let ghostly Mary Kate be the first image that showed up on the blog anymore. Here is a muuuuuch better picture. James Holloway plays my absolute fave character on LOST, which begins again in only 20 days. Am I pumped? You betcha. I probably won't be able to sleep the night before, which is convenient because it will allow me to watch the first six episodes of the season again. (Especially the episode where Sawyer loses ALL of his clothes...may have to watch that one twice.) Would I willingly be the Kate to Holloway's Sawyer? Heck yeah I would. His southern accent and pre-ripped jeans (even pre-ripped in the crotch!) only add to this con artist's sex appeal.

Oooh, just found another good picture on my computer. Mmmmmmm...Adam Brody in a wet t-shirt...I hope no one here at the office walks by as I drool on my desk...
