Tangles in my hair, but you made me feel so pretty

Finally, pictures from my sister's gorgeous 18th birthday extravaganza. As you can see, the theme was gold. Gold was everywhere...and it all started after Victoria found the dress. And this was definitely THE dress! I mean, it was sort of a collaborative design between Victoria and the designer, so it's absolutely one-of-a-kind and no one in the world has it. Lucky girl! But she totally deserved this night, she'd been waiting so long to have a party like this-and finally, it was able to happen for her. And I couldn't be happier and prouder to have such an amazing sister. I know I sing her praises all the time-but I wouldn't say such things if they weren't true.
The evening was filled with lots of food, entertainment, laughs, tears, excitement-it was just one of those parties you wish went on for a week! My parents really did a wonderful job.
Geo and I played hosts for the evening. He was much more comfortable with the position than I was, but I think I did alright. My favorite part of the evening though, was when Victoria and I sang a duet together, completely a cappella, to Eisley's Brightly Wound. We hadn't sang together in a long time, so it was a special moment.

I love my sister so much.

p.s. That divine cake was also designed by my sister. Isn't it amazing looking? It tasted just as good as it looked too. I wish I had gone for seconds. :p

I'm a sensation...

Hi guys! I'm back...well sort of. My best friend was amazing enough, to not only let me do our laundry at her house today, but was also gracious enough to set me up internet wise, as we currently STILL do not have internet/cable at the new house.

Long story short, the move, albeit rainy-was actually pretty smooth. I love the space of the new place, and I feel like once everything is in it's place-we'll really enjoy it there. And did I mention, my closet?! Holy Toledo-it's huge! Like twice the size of our old walk-in. Perhaps when we're a little more settled, I'll do a closet video post. :)

Finally got the pics from my sister's birthday. So, those will be up sometime this week. But for now, I bring you (Sorry it's a week late)-The Best and Worst Dressed at the Golden Globes 2010...

Worst

4.) Fergie in Elie Saab-This just screams Prom to me. Thank God, her hair was able to cover up those straps, because then it would've looked cheaper than it already did. Terrible. What a waste.

3.) Chloe Sevigny in Valentino-Ok, so I know a lot of you are going to disagree with me on this one. I think the dress would be prettier if the ruffles didn't go across the shoulders like it does. She already has a very broad frame, and I think it makes her look even wider up top. I know ruffles are in this season, but this was definitely too much.

2.) Lauren Graham in Monique Lhuillier-This is barbie gone wrong. I hate this dress. The material shows everything.

1.) Tina Fey in Zac Posen-Oh Tina...I know she doesn't really try to be the best dressed, but she's certainly looked better than this. It just looks very cartoony. I don't like the color (drab) and I hate the shape. Not cute.

Best

5.) Anna Kendrick in Marchesa-Marchesa knows how to do a winning red carpet gown. This is first time at the Globes, but I think she definitely did it right. Perhaps the glitter was a little too much, but I love love love the ruffled one shoulder. So chic!

4.) Ginnifer Goodwin in Vionnet-I was so glad to see a short, bright, dress on the red carpet. There weren't a lot. And at first I didn't like the way the dress draped around the hip. But the dress, and her whole look definitely grew on me.

3.) Diane Kruger in Christian Lacroix-Now, this is how you do pink. Pink being one of my favorite colors, I was so happy to see it presented in such a sophisticated and unique way. I love the detailing along the bust the white belt. So unexpected. But in a good way.




2.) Emily Blunt in Dolce & Gabbana- I feel like Emily Blunt can do no wrong when it comes to red carpet elegance. She just exudes it. I love the blush color of it, and the way it hugs her amazing toned body. She just looked amazing.

1.) Dianna Agron in Reem Acra-Stunning. Stunning! She wasn't even going to be on my list, because she didn't get interviewed on the red carpet, and then I saw this picture. My heart stopped. So ethereal and so goddess-like. I love every inch of it. The more I look at it, the more jealous of her I become. Haha.

So...please forgive my absence. I hope this will satiate your hunger for now. Until next time. And hopefully, I'll be blogging from my own home. ;)

Send me a redeemer...

Finally, an outfit post! This is sort of the best I could do given most of my clothes have already been packed, ready for the move on Tues. But yeah, the outfit is sort of a mish-mash of things I got for Christmas, apart from the plaid shirt which I bought myself. I wore this out last night, to see my sister in The Children's Hour. My sister was absolutely fabulous in it, and even got me crying at one point. She has a subtle realness to her acting that not a lot of girls can pull off. But I guess that's to be expected of actors in the high school level. But all in all-I was very impressed with her.

It's so weird to see the apartment in its current state. Although, we've only been living here for a year and a half, it's still our first home together, and it will forever be remembered. But it's definitely nice to be moving into a house. Especially since it's 3 blocks away from my best friend. The only unfortunate thing is-we have to stay an extra year in the valley. But it is for only a year, so I'm not too bent out of shape about it. I'm excited to make more memories at the new place!

Golden Globes are today! I don't know what my internet situation is going to be for the next couple of days, but keep on a lookout for my annual best/worst dressed list. So exciting.

For the 1st time in my life, my eyes are wide open

Lookie what I found on Esther's blog the other day...Is this not the CUTEST wedding pictures you've ever seen? Not only is the dress absolutely stunning, but I am crazy in love with the theme. *Sigh* I can't wait to get REALLY married. Like with the dress, church, party-the whole shabang...

Sorry for the lack of outfit posts guys. I know my blog isn't fully dedicated to style, but it is a huge part of it, so I wanted to assure the people who have been missing it, that it will return and hopefully in full force! With that said...yes, I have been a flake lately. But that's because, honestly-I haven't really had much inspiration in my daily life to want to dress up. Granted, as I've mentioned before, my sister's 18th birthday party was last Sat., so pictures will be coming shortly. But as far as routine, I just feel bleh...perhaps after this move the hubby and I are doing next week, I'll feel much better and much more inspired.

I'm still taken by surprise

Cannot wait for springtime. I love my go-to black but I can't wait to see what the shops have in store for the bright season.



The Burberry SS10 campaign with the stunning Emma Watson! Seriously such a classic beauty, with a classic sense of style. You can never really go wrong with a designer like Burberry. I long to own one of their long khaki trench coats. My hubby already owns one-lucky! *Sigh*

Still pooped from my sister's birthday party last night. She looked like the ultimate rockstar, and I cannot wait to see the pictures!

Cinema Italiano

Nine made me want to LIVE in Corsets and Garters. Such a sexy movie...I did like it. I just wish it was a little bit better.

Gonna be in my hometown preparing for my sister's 18th birthday party over the next few days! Wish me luck. xoxo

Let's live it up!

(love of my life)

I hope you all had a great time ringing in the New Year. I sure did. Thank you to all of my friends/family for making the evening so special. I feel so lucky and I love you all.

Also, it is my little sister's 18th birthday today. It feels like just yesterday, when I was 6 years old holding her tiny little frame in my arms. Sheesh-I can't believe she's 18! Happy birthday booboo bear. I love you sooo much!

2010 will be my year...I can feel it.
