I woke up like this...

In honor of awards season (Oscar noms were also announced today), I thought I would talk about something that I thought was pretty effing awesome.

And that something is Emma Watson's Golden Globes outfit. It's kinda great.

I mean she did something that I always want to see at these awards shows which is something different. Lately, awards season outfits have been so uniform to me and to be honest I've been really bored with all of it. I get having the ball gowns and what not at the Oscars but for the Golden Globes I feel like you could be more fun and interesting with it.
I loved this idea of the faux gown over pants. How comfortable was she during the ceremony?! She's such a great fashion inspiration (and with such a hot back!). So simple but so risky. One of my favorite parts about this outfit was that she was only wearing one earring.
She's kinda been under the radar recently but this was just like bam! And I knew I had to blog about it.

Anyway. See you soon with an outfit post. Crossing my fingers on that.

In that dress I like...

Awards season is upon us!

The unfortunate thing is I wasn't completely wowed by any of the looks save for a very few. Let's go over them shall we?

Chloë Moretz in Simone Rocha
People's Choice Awards
I think this dress is great. First, I would totally just wear this in real life. It's so cute and fun without being obnoxious. And second, she just looks great in it and it works with her young age. Totally my style as well.

Amanda Seyfried in Marios Schwab
Critics' Choice Movie Awards
At first I was unsure about this but that only lasted for a hot second and then I kinda fell in love with it. It definitely looks better with movement but I still love the hell out of it. Amanda is a goddess, just basically.

Kate Hudson in Alexander McQueen
Golden Globe Awards
Okay I love this dress a lot. The only little tiny thing that bothered me was the styling. Her hair and makeup was kinda eh for me, but I don't really care about that too much because she looks good in the dress otherwise. Perfectly edgy and sleek and sophisticated. Just lovely.

An outfit post is coming soon I hope! xx

What it takes...

Finally, Inspiration Wednesday. Smiles.

Sorry this has been on and off, but it's back today and we should be glad because I personally think it's a really good one.

We've only heard recently about her a million times because of a certain movie called The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. Yes, Rooney Mara.

Rooney Mara is certainly not disappointing anyone on her The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo promotional tour. For a relative newcomer, she's been flawless on the tour with her hands always slightly clasped. And her blunt bang is a hard hairstyle to deal with, but she works it every time. All her outfits effectively convey her angular aesthetic. I fell in love with every single one. She chose to showcase the garments by wearing little to no jewelry. All her looks bring about an edginess yet she looks positively Hepburn every time, especially that last black Nina Ricci she wore to the Golden Globes. Simply amazing. It's enough to send me on bended knee to her style prowess. Um, swoon.

Oh sidenote: I made myself a Tumblr. Come check it out here. Maybe follow me. Smiles.

Love you all...

(Especially you Mikey, if you're reading this, happy birthday. Smiles.)

Wake you up...

VINTAGE JEWELRY, BLOUSE AND LEATHER VEST/ CALVIN KLEIN CUTOFFS/ GIVENCHY TIGHTS/ DEENA & OZZY LACE UP BOOTIES/ REVLON LIPSTICK IN BLACKBERRY

My first weekend in Santa Cruz and I have a four day weekend. It's pretty great.

I only went out once this weekend just to thrift shop a little and get groceries with Veronica but the rest of the weekend we've just been lounging around the apartment eating baked goods and watching stuff on the Netflix queue. It's gotten a little colder this weekend as well so I guess winter is here. More warm clothes and Netflix.

The Golden Globes post is coming soon, once I decide on Best Dress, and also Inspiration Wednesday. I definitely do not want to lose track of this blog.

Some updates:

First, I got a haircut about a week ago. Just a trim, but a significant chunk is gone. But I didn't freak out so much this time, which was weird for me. Maybe I'm close to just chopping it all off.

Anyway, second, I started reading The Hunger Games finally, with much persuading by my sister and Veronica. It's pretty interesting.

And finally, I really want to go to Coachella this year even though I know I won't be going. I want to go to a music festival.

So that's all.

The kings and queens of promise...

So I love me some Duchess Catherine. And you should too since she's amazing. Obviously.

She wore this great floor-length Temperley London dress to the London premiere of War Horse (which was amazing by the way), and I have to say this is my favorite look of hers ever. Ever. Well besides the wedding, of course.

She is just perfection in every way. The hair is always down, which I love, she never has a lot of make up on, and she has a wonderful chivalrous man at her side, this time holding an umbrella for his lady. Just wonderful.

So this post will be short. I have an update. I entered The Joie Girl Contest on Chictopia to be the face of their upcoming spring campaign. That would be a dream come true so please vote for/favorite/share my picture here.

Love you all. An outfit post will be coming soon, I promise. And an amazing Inspiration Wednesday. Also the Golden Globes are tomorrow. Be excited.

Pleasant day, pretty sky...

So I have a couple of issues.

1. Boys are really confusing.

2. Midterms are really stupid.

3. I have be ready for this show.

Auditions are coming up and I'm hoping to nab a lead. Hopefully Snoopy.

Hopefully.

Sometimes people can get in the way of that.

But some good updates:

1. I got Most Dramatic for Senior Best in the yearbook. And so did the bester Jeff.

2. I saw The Lovely Bones today with some peeps. It was okay but it was nice going out.

3. I also had some Taco Bell tonight. Yum.

I have some theories, but they are all jumbled up in my head so I don't really know what they are.

Just putting that out there.

Another thing. I apologize for not having a Golden Globes post. All I would have talked about was Dianna Agron's beautiful Reem Acra dress.

Just saying - this could TOTALLY be my wedding dress.
