To my lovely Oscar ladies...

Dear Ms. Berry,

You can do no wrong. You looked absolutely impeccable on that red carpet and quite honestly you put me to shame {seeing as how I was lounging on the couch in sweatpants and eating guacamole.} But alas, your dress caught my eye so much that I would wear down the aisle one day. You are simply stunning. 

To Ms. Williams, 

While some were not a fan of your look this year, I loved it and not just because we have the same haircut right now {well maybe that had a little to do with it....} but I thought you were understated and elegant. Bravo darling - You looked like pure elegance. 

And finally to Anne and James, 


Anne, I love how excited you were to be hosting. You are adorable and your whoops and hollers were endearing. Your costume changes were seamless and stunning and James, I thought you did OK. Sorry you didn't win but quite honestly I love Colin Firth so much more. {so sorry dear} And I was most excited about his win. He will always and forever be, to me, Mr. Darcy. 


And of course, I must acknowledge Natalie Portman on her Best Actress Award. You are lovely. 


What a wonderful night, watching all of Hollywood come together. There is nothing else like it. Cheers!

Trend spotting...blue and gold {London}

According to the Sartorialist this blue and gold combo is hitting all over London. This is totally exciting for me since I already posess a wide array of blues. The gold's I'll have to work on.

Who knows if this trend will still be 'in' by the time I get there but a girl can be prepared, no?

Living the Language

I love this video by EF Language schools on London. Sure, all of the text is in English, which just so happens to be my first language, but I think that makes the video so fun, for me, to watch.

They also have other videos on Paris, Madrid, and Toyko. Click here to watch the video because apparently I don't know how to embed a video on blogger... {sigh}
Enjoy!

Passion....

 {image via:tumblr}

Hope you all had a fantastic weekend. I woke up this morning with many things on my heart and I couldn't help but be focused on my passions in life. As I've mentioned before one of my many passions is to create a magazine for Christian women, that discusses ALL issues.{I'm talking beauty, dating, sex, career, etc etc, in a open and honest way.} This passion of mine is driving me, now more than ever, and is a huge part of my move to London.

So, on this Monday morning, where we could be less than thrilled that our weekend is over, sluggish, tired, and down right grouchy - let's instead me filled and driven with our passions. Our lives are short and if we're not actively pursing our passions....then what are we doing?

So, tell me. What are your passions?

I'm allowed to gush about Olivia Palermo. Weird? Maybe a little but have you seen her in the new Tibi Ads?  {Swoon} She's gorgeous and the clothes are amazing. I think I need all of these looks for my London wardrobe, no?

Stunning. Let's take the weekend to conjure up some looks with some amazing style. Work with what you have and make it YOU. With all of these lovely looks in mind, here's to a most fun and fashionable weekend. Cheers!
