Fashion Friday...SAG and State of the Union...

It's Friday.... a beautiful day for many reasons...It's almost the weekend, I have exciting things planned (including Lost), and I have my computer back!!!

(can I get the Hallelujah chorus please)

So here are my thoughts on the world of fashion which still currently revolve around award shows...I promise designer fun is coming.

I have to say there wasn't too many I like from the SAG awards, although I thought Anna Kendrick and Christina Applegate were among the best.

Lea Michelle ( Rachel from Glee) was my favorite!

She looked fabulous in this oh so hot color at the SAG awards last Sunday...I am loving the versatility she shows to go from a Oscar deLaRenta Ball Gown to this chic Cathrine Malandrino gown is just lovely..can't wait to see her Emmy look!

I must say why I don't always agree with her husband, First Lady Michelle Obama almost always gets in right with fashion. I admit this look is a bit "holidayish" But I still love this look oh so much and am hoping I will soon find a knock-off in a department store soon

(H&M, Forever 21, Macys..please?)

My Birthday...



My 25th Birthday is coming up...February 7th (13 days) to be exact..and to say that I wasn't freaking out a little would be a lie. 25 is a big year it's the year in my mind that you've become "grown-up". I think alot of this has to do with the fact that I graduated college and got a "real" job just within the last year.

Anyways I've been thinking of something I can do to mark this occasion instead of staying inside with my blinds closed and not answering my phone(like I sometimes want to do). Sometimes I wish I could just wake up and have my birthday be over, just so I could avoid the disappointment that birthdays can sometimes bring...anyways
So that's where you all come in.

I need your suggestions and input...
How should I spend my 25th Birthday? I want to look back and say "on my 25th Birthday I went/did (insert momentous activity here)"..


*F.Y.I I'm not into tattoos or skydiving or anything too risky, but want to do something that I have never done before...

Golden Globes....

On Fridays I am planning on making it a fashion Friday where I am going to share either one my my favorite outfits or a fav style/designer or outfit I've seen someone wear..so this may be a little late but I'm going to talk about my Fav dresses from this past Sunday's Golden Globes..
I love award season, I don't really love the award shows themselves I think they can sometimes be too narcissistic and political plus I rarely have seen any of the movies or shows that are nominated. Anyways the main reason I love it is for the fashion. The dresses, the shoes, the bling...I love it all..
So in watching the GG this past Sunday here are my Fav's

Emily Blunt- Love the pesh pink color and I also love her Fiance :-)

Actor Colin Firth (R) and wife Livia Giuggioli arrive at The Weinstein Company Golden Globes After Party held at Trader Vic's at The Beverly Hilton Hotel
I didn't see this one on the red carpet.. it was really Mr. Darcy who first caught my eye but I must say his lovely wife looks so classy in B & W.
.ala 'My Fair Lady'
I also loved the ladies of Glee especially Quinn(Dianna Agron) her striking grey dress
(I LOVE grey..its kinda my fav color right now) and Jayma Mays was so classy it seemed very "Emma"

I think the biggest fail of the Globes was this disastrous number...it pains me to say it because I usually LOVE his designs but Zac Posen its just
"not working"

Next up SAG's, BAFTA(British equivalent of Oscar) and Mr. Oscar!

Rob or Paul that IS the Question....

* I sent this email to my aunt(who is uber cool) after she asked me about Vampire Diaries a few months ago

So after our convo Sat night I promised I would show you pictures to prove my dilemma...here is the evidence....

So this is Paul Wesley
http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/M/MV5BMTg1MjY0MjEyNl5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwNzk4NzgzMQ@@._V1._SX450_SY300_.jpg
....he is mighty attractive :-)

He is in this show called Vampire Diaries
Where he plays Stefan Salvatori

He has NICE Abs...better than Edward most definitely and in good competition with Jacob's.
(Do you think Taylor Swift would agree?)
#paulweasleysabs( Thank you Lauren for the most Epic of all hashtags)

Stefan is in Love with Elena (Can I please have that dress...thank you!) and the other guy is Stefan's evil brother Damon..he's all sorts of hotness and bad. (thanks to Lost I am now in love with Damon as well)

...alot of the story is the same, high school, boy meets girl, falls in love, girl finds out he's a vampire, has been 17 for 150 years, resists human blood, yada yada yada..you know the story...but alot is different and for that reason I can separate these two vampire myths.
I Love it so...Thurs is always a good night!

Paul isn't all weird about kissing Elena either as is exhibited by this HOTT clip.

Paul (Stefan) is exactly how I pictured Edward in my head when I was reading the books the perfect amount of old charm and sexiness.

So back to the dilemma...
Rob..love him and his hair :-)

Wait is that a Hobo...No it's just Rob looking like one!

He's so much better when he has a stylist..I volunteer!

Oscars 2009=Best Look EVER!

http://c2.api.ning.com/files/3ZYjTjZnLRv09Drx-yH1iqoXUgwUif4DU*YGGTAlACuUT8wLzngOhf7*6KVPMMHYUgFzm7UO7Z6qH8BrueJItW4t8r*OOdFH/TokyoPremieretwilightseries45039443355001.jpg
He also looks VERY attractive here...Pretty sure this is when Robsten "hooked up" no girl who hates the press/interviews as much as she does looks that happy to be in Japan having a million pictures taken of them in the rain unless you've just landed the Hottest Vampire! Nuff Said!

So when they cast Rob
I changed my mind, he WAS Edward. But then they cast Paul in VD and there was a real person who looked like the Edward from my dreams....what's a girl to do?

Who to choose?
I went back and forth, who was better Paul or Rob?

Both have great hair.(R=1,P+1)
Both have the jawline and look "marble-like")(R+1, P+1)
One does have the accent(R+1, P-1))
One doesn't dress like a hobo and have a "mullet" as a girlfriend (P+1, R-1)
One I have seen on his hotel balcony..with said "mullet" (R+1, P-1)*True story..for another post
One actually has real abs, not painted on ones (P+1, R+1)

...and then I stopped....
I didn't care, it didn't matter I could have both...
I could have "Book" Edward a.k.a Paul & "Movie" Edward a.k.a Rob.

...Until Nov 20th that is....I may change my mind after I see that Italy scene.
( I may have changed my mind when I saw NM but it may change again tonight when I see #paulwesleysabs)

*This post really is first hand embarrassing...but I love it so!

Breaking Up Is Hard to Do...


PANDORA
I think I'm breaking up with you and "its you not me"...
We had a wonderfully perfect relationship. Sure you sometimes played Jack Johnson too much or wouldn't let me skip a song but I looked past it, I still saw the good in you.
You use to serenade me in my many hours at work while staring at my computer screen.
But only giving me 40 hours of free listening a month is just not going to cut it anymore..not for this 40 hours a week professional girl. I need more..
I need to know you will always be there.
I need to know you won't run out on me or reject me when I really need you.
It will be hard and I'm sure I will come crawling back to you again and again until you hurt me one last time. But one day I will walk away from you..and I will find someone better.

They always say there are other fishes in the sea I just need to find them...
so bloggie friends do you know of any good internet music streaming sources?

*and yes,the pic does show a Pandora station titled Boogie Pimps..that is not mine but I think it's hilar!

The Story I Will Tell...


Once Upon a Time....wait I think that story has been told before.
So what story will I tell?
This is will be the story of a girl..an ordinary girl but a girl with dreams no less.
I will talk of me, my life, my loves, my faith, my family and friends, my love of books,shoes, purses and all pretty things, and most of all my hopes, wishes and dreams.
I hope you will all come back
as I try to fill everyday with just a little Something Sassy!

* I have been trying quite unsuccessfully to get my post titles be in "cute handwriting"...so if any of you have any tips or directions on how to do this please let me know.
