Monday Monday....Wish it was Friday afternoon already!

Yes, I know I shouldn't be wishing my life away but it is a long weekend coming and I need it! I have been working my butt off with school so I would be able to just relax this coming weekend and guess what barring any major assignments coming up (which I wouldn't be surprised if we got one in communications) I will be able to just relax this weekend! YIPEE!! I'm excited to just chill and not worry about anything for the weekend. 

Okay, so this weekend wasn't action packed but it wasn't boring either. On Friday, I went to Truro in the evening with Erica because one of our favorite scrapbooking stores was set up at a Scrapbooking weekend there. Since we normally only see them at Crop and Create we decided we should probably head over and see them. Of course we had to pick up some new supplies too! I honestly could have spent an insane amount of money there, they always have the best products! We also had dinner at Frank and Gino's which was delish. Oh and I may have popped into Sally's Beauty for a couple of things. 

On Saturday it was Gone Girl day! Myself, Erica and our cousin Ashdenne had all read the book, I read it because Erica and Ashdenne said I had to so we could all go and enjoy the movie together when it came out. This was back in August so we had a countdown! We even wished each other Happy Gone Girl day! Since Ashdenne couldn't go on Friday we did postpone for a day. If you haven't read the book I HIGHLY recommend it! I feel I enjoyed the movie more because I had read the book. I also think this is the best novel turned movie I have ever seen! Normally the book is always better and yes this book was still better but the movie really stayed true to the book and lived up to it. I think this is probably because Gillian Flynn the author was the one to adapt the novel into a screenplay. Rosamund Pike played Amy Dunn perfectly, Ben Affleck was great at Nick! They had the chemistry they needed for the role and I honestly can't hype this book and film up enough for you! I hope you read the book and see the movie. I will warn you if you don't like the book and movie I will be inwardly judging you.

Sunday Funday! I went to brunch with the family down in Pictou which was as yummy as it always is at Stone Soup Cafe. After that I did some errands with Erica and then it was homework and laundry for the rest of day! I know exciting! It was a productive day though and that is all that matters sometimes! 

How was your weekend? Any exciting plans for this week?

Happy Monday Everyone!

Oscar Fashions! (LONG post)

I know I'm a day late with the Oscar Fashion post but honestly yesterday I didn't have time to post anything much less a good post about the Oscars! Did everyone watch? I watched all the red carpet on E! and then stayed up for the last award! I don't think I have done that since Matt Damon and Ben Affleck won their Oscar! I always watch the Oscars but normally head to bed before it is over. Yes, I know my bad! But this year since I have been more into the awards this year because I want to see Ben Affleck win everything he can! I had to stay up to see Argo win for Best Picture! So excited it did! And thank you to Ben for thanking Canada :) His speech was adorable when he was thanking Jennifer! And it was such an honest speech because you could tell how excited he was! Yup, still have that crush on him. 

But lets move on to what really matters the Fashions! I have to say everyone well almost everyone really stepped it up for the Oscars this year because I had a very hard time coming up with my lists so I'm going to be doing something a little different! I'm giving you my top fashion picks for the women and the men. I will mention right now that I though Kristen Stewart looked awful! Hello Kristen wash your hair before you go to the Oscars! She is just gross to me LOL Sorry for any of you who like her but she is bugs me and she needs to wash her hair! Now, onto my top Fashion Ladies!

1. Charlize Theron - She is the probably the best looking woman in the world. This dress is perfection on her. The white just pops on her tan skin and the shape is to die for. Also, how amazingly beautiful do you have to be to carry off this hair cut? Yes, that beautiful and Charlize does it without any effort. Amazing! I can't say enough about her and this fashion choice.

2. Jessica Chastain - This copper gown looked amazing on her. This is my favorite of her award gowns this season. Her hair was perfectly polished and that red lip just topped off the look perfectly. Her gown was fitted to a tee and she just looked amazing!

3. Samantha Barks - I love the simple elegance of this dress, I know the neckline is you know a tad low but think Samantha looks smashing in it. The only thing I would change is her necklace, I would change it out for some statement bangles maybe. Make up and hair perfect, loved this look!

4. Jennifer Lawerence - This gown was amazing and Jennifer wore it very well! I loved how it was white but didn't read bridal! There is a very fine line there and lucky she was on the right side of it! I loved her hair and make up! I think one of my favorite things those was her wearing her necklace down her back. I love how it sparkled and just looked really nice. I love this girl and how down to earth she is! How can you not love her when she fell going to get her Oscar and then brushes it off with a joke!? She looked amazing!

5. Jennifer Hudson - Stunner! I loved her sparkly blue dress! I think her hair looked amazing with the dress because she didn't try to do too much with it! Her dress had it all going on then she just had simple make up with simple hair! What a beauty!

6. Amanda Seyfried - The dress is stunning on her, I would have loved to seen her in a dramatic color but this is kind of her thing this award season so we will go with it!. I loved the neckline of her and it fit her very nicely. I loved her eye make up especially, hair perfectly done as well!

7. Adelle - I think this dress looked so classic on Adelle, it as youthful classic look with a great bit of sparkle! Because we all love a bit of sparkle right? I think it was tailored perfectly on her. I loved her hair and make up but honestly I think her hair and make up are always spot on! She has great confidence and I just love her.

8. Jennifer Aniston - I'm so excited that she wore a COLOR! Jennifer is normally in black, white, or a neutral color so I was so excited to see her in this red dress! It was a nice change from her normally black form fitting dresses! I thought she looked amazing in this red color. Love her hair but maybe should have pulled it up into a side knot or something but never the less she looked fantastic!

And now I'm not going to be a worst dressed because I didn't think there was anyone who really dropped the ball this year. Yes there was some that could have been much better Anne Hathway, Salma Hayak, Nicole Kidman but all in all I think the Oscars were one of the best dressed events of the award season. I will leave you with the men who I thought looked smashing! 

Bradley Cooper! Could have used less hair gel but he always looks good!

Joseph Gordon Levitt - What a cutie!

Channing Tatum - When doesn't he look good?

Ben Affleck! Best looking man in the house! And Jennifer Garner could have been a best dressed pick if she didn't have that ruffle down the back of her! Loved her necklace!

Hope you liked my picks! Who were you loving at the Oscars this past weekend?

The Best and the Worst: Grammy Time!

Last night was the night of music! I have to say for the past couple of years I haven't even really watched the Grammys because I rarely think the people who win deserved to win! But last night myself and my sister settled in to watch the whole show! I have to say I'm glad I did because it was a pretty great show last night! The performances for the most part were amazing! Taylor Swift's performance was just weird, you're not a dancer so walking around the stage like that was dumb! Mumford and Sons was AMAZING as I knew they would be! And the tribute performances were damn fantastic!!! But really we only care about what everyone wore because there was new rules about how you had to keep yourself covered! I think these rules were helpful to some of the ladies because they came looking much nicer then they normally would! Anyways here are my best and worst dressed of the night!

Best Dressed....

Jennifer Lopez: I know some people may not like this number but I really do for some reason! I love the black and I love how her hair is something I would wear at the gym but she pulls it off at the Grammys! She is probably the best looking person on the planet!

Rihanna: I normally never like what she is wearing but hot damn the girl looked AMAZING last night! The hair the make up the dress! Everything was on point! Kudos for looking so amazing Rihanna! I feel like she did this to take away from who she was there with!

Beyonce: Girl, damn you look fine! I honestly thought Beyonce would come in a glamorous dress but BAM she flips it all around on me and comes in a hot pant suit! Really she could probably wear a paper bag and make it look good!

Worst Dressed...

Florence and the Machine: Okay I know you're a redhead and green goes with your skin tone and hair but lord love me this is just too shiny and tight! What are going on with the weird spikes?? I have nothing to say but this is bad!

Carly Rae: When you are that pale wearing your hair this dark and with a black dress will do nothing for you love! Color is your friend, it is the Grammys not a funeral Carly! And there was something about your make up that just isn't working!

Katy Perry: I know a lot of people liked her dress but I'm not one of them! Okay you have nice boobs Katy but I don't need to see them! Leave them for John. I just don't like this dress with the flowers and it is being so skin tight. Then again I rarely like what Katy Perry wears!

There you go! My picks for best and worst dressed at the Grammys! I'm so excited that my next best and worst is going to the Oscars! Also everyone have you been noticing how Ben Affleck is cleaning up at all the award shows!? Argo F*ck Yourself Oscars!

The Good, The Bad and the Ugly! Golden Globes!

On Sunday, we really kicked off the award season off right with the Golden Globes! I think Tina Fey and Amy Poehler did a great job hosting but I was kind of ticked off about the fact they did not really host the event, yes they had funny bits but after the first half we hardly even saw them but they did great so whatever! {Side note I think Kristin Wiig and Will Farrell should host next year!} and  I loved Amy's first dress! Speaking of Globe fashions a lot of the ladies decided to go for the plunging neckline this year which I loved a lot of them. We all love a good dress and fashion statement so here are my best and worst dressed of the night.

Best Dressed...

Amanda Seyfried: In love with this dress, I'm a sucker for a white/off white dress and this looked amazing on her. I love how her hair and make up were soft and she just looked amazing.

Claire Danes: What a stunner! She looks amazing in this red dress! And how bangin' is her post baby body! She only had her child a month ago! This look is just a effortless look for Claire I think. Perfection, probably my favorite of the night.

Anne Hathaway: I think she looked amazing in this white dress, sometimes I find white dresses just look like a wedding dress but I loved this! She looked flawless from her dress, to her hair to her make up! Huge congrats to her on winning for Best Supporting Actress she was amazing in her role!

Worst Dressed....

Lucy Liu: I'm sorry girl but this dress was not made for you! First off it looks like a tablecloth! Then you do a plain fishtail braid! I oddly like this dress since the first time I saw it but it was not something I think works for Lucy. I think it is too young for her. Go for just a dress next time Lucy and not a ball gown. 

Lena Dunham: Girl, this is a bad prom dress gone WRONG! The straps are wrong, the shape is bad and I just really hate this dress! Also, next award show Lena wear shoes you can walk in because you looked downright silly when you went up to get your awards!

Sienna Miller: Do I even have to explain why this was on my worst dressed list? Just look at it!

I also just want to make a quick mention of my favorite moments of the night....

-Ben Affleck winning Best Director for Argo. I'm still pissed at the Oscars for over looking him!

-Adele's speech! I love how surprised she was! 

-Tina Fey telling Taylor Swift to stay away from Micheal J Fox's son!!

Hope everyone is having a great Tuesday!

And I will leave you with a picture of Mr. Affleck who I have been mad crushing on lately!

*le sigh*
