After Parties

I love the After Party photos, like this one of Ginnifer Goodwin and her fiance Joey Kern - she's wearing an Erdem dress - how great does it look with her haircut? Love her!

Someecards

Y'all know Someecards, right? If not, they're hilarious e-cards you can send on those occasions where you can't find the words to say what you want to say.

In light of the Oscars, I found this one particularly humourous.  I wish they hadn't had Kirk Douglas hand out the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress; it was a cringe-worthy moment, didn't you think?

BESTS: Cate, Mila, Mandy, Natalie, Sandra, Helen, Reese, Anne, Amy, Halle, Aishwarya, Jennifer, Jennifer, Oprah, Penelope, Javier, Gwyneth

Happy to see so many beautiful colours on the red carpet!

My favourites? 

Cate did Cate and I think this was my favourite look of the night.  Such a wonderful lavender Givenchy haute couture dress from the Spring 2011.  LOVE HER! She looked absolutely regal!

Mila's Elie Saab dress too,  definitely.  Such a gorgeous lavender colour on her and the lace detailing was so delicate and pretty.

Mandy's Monique Lhuillier gown was absolutely stunning.

 Natalie had on a lovely purple Rodarte gown that really suited her growing belly and brought out that glow.

Sandra's pop of red (Vera Wang) was wonderful and I loved that she pulled back the bangs!

Ever elegant and never matronly, Helen was wearing gray gown by Vivienne Westwood.  Such a classy lady, no? 



Reese looked lovely and sleek; loved her 60s pony tail!  Her Armani Privé black and white dress reminded me of Julie Roberts' vintage Valentino the year she won the Oscar.

Anne looked classy in her opening cream Givenchy Haute Couture by Riccardo Tisci gown (I also loved her custom made Brian Atwood heels she wore with her tux during her singing number).  She also pulled off the shiny blue number later in the awards show.



Amy's blue L'Wren Scott gown and retro hairdo really looked stunning on her.

Halle looked as elegant as ever in a nude Marchesa gown; her hair and jewellery were understated as well.

Aishwarya and Abhishek were there!  Ash looked great in a bronze coloured Armani Privé gown.

Jennifer Hudson; omg you guys, how much weight is this woman losing?  Enough now, I say.  Loved the tangerine Versace on her; and understated makeup.  Lovely.

Jennifer Lawrence did a sleek Calvin Klein gown in red, looking effortless and age-appropriate.

Oprah! was there! Oprah!  She looked like Oprah :)



Penelope and Javier = win!   (Penelope also wore L'Wren Scott! LOVE!)

Gwyneth and her Calvin Klein gown was perfect on her svelte figure.  Brian Atwood golden puppies on her feet!

My Misses?

Scarlett (as my BFF said, was too "matronly"), Annette ( I liked the Naeem Khan dress, but not on her, it did nothing for her), Marisa (great colour but not flattering), Hilary (too many feathers, and would it have killed her to wear some earrings?), Nicole Kidman (looked like a napkin or tapestry; too much going on and didn't care for the few strands of hair in her face), Michelle in Chanel (BO-RING! But lovely makeup).

Those are my picks cats!

How about you?

I don't know about you, but I'm totally catching the Oscars this Sunday February 27 2011!

Are you? Any Oscar parties? An Oscar party is such a great idea; I'd love to host one some year, but this year it won't be.

Yellow!

What is it about that pop of YELLOW that really makes one think of Spring?

My breakdown?

Spring = Easter = Baby chicks = Baby chick yellow

How's that?

Love this "chick's" effortless look.

Flats

I recently picked up a pair of grey Converse All-Stars, to add to my collection...which is really only another pair of light pink Converse All-stars :)

Converse Women's Chuck Taylor Ox ($39.99 via Finishline)




They were super comfy for walking around in Paris last summer. I alternated between those and my BC Thunder Oxfords, which are super cute and comfortable!

(Sold out via endless.com)



Here are some other flat shoes I'm coveting for walking around in Spring.

Michael Kors 'Winsor' Loafer ($100.82
via Nordstrom)



Frye Carson Ballet Flat ($147.95 via Walking Shoe Online)



What type of comfy walking shoe do you turn to when you need to be walking around for hours?

Three's Company

So, we've been watching a lot of Three's Company episodes that we taped on our PVR while we had the Deja View channel.  As I'd never ever seen the show before, I've really been enjoying the comedy but also the 70s style outfits! Especially now as the 70s trend is upon us  for Spring.

I've been inspired to put together outfits based on Three's Company over on Polyvore (best website for putting together style sets, have you guys tried it out? It's amazing!)

So here's a set I created, inspired by an episode where Chrissy's dating a man who "may" be married.  I added the trench and the watch :)  Of course the shoes don't really make sense for a rainy day, but I loved them! (Click on the image to see the set with with the brand names and prices).

Belle Noel

How do you guys feel about this new hair accessory by Kim Kardashian and jewellery designer Pascal Mouwad?

Would you wear it?

I think it's pretty, but a bit too belly dancer-ish, for me.

Chobe Chilwero

I'm looking for inspiration on how to decorate our living room, and since my family grew up in Botswana, Africa, I keep looking to that direction.

First stop? Architectural Digest. Which was one of my Dad's favourite subscriptions, that, and National Geographic, so when I found this article in AD, I was hooked on getting this exact couch.



And now, of course, I just want to go to there.

Colour Block

I'm on the lookout for colour block shoes.  Marni would be ideal, but if I can find an affordable version, that would be great!

Colour mixes such as pink/red, coral/grey, green/black, burgandy/brown are really catching my eye.

Here are some I would love to own.

The Asos Hodge Colour Block Sandal (via Asos)


Marni shoes (via Childhood Flames)



Love the blue bow on this Marni pair.



I don't even want to know how expensive these Christian Louboutin - Multi T-Strap Heels are (via Polyvore)


Drool....(top row L-R, Dolce&Gabbana, Dries Van Noten, Prada, bottom row L-R Thakoon, Valentino, Dolce & Gabbana)



My friend A has a pair that look very similar to these Giuseppe Zanotti's



How about these lovely Katia Lombardo booties? (via Endless)
