wishes: all things native american

i love the native american trend that's in full swing this fall.

while i probably won't go all out like some of the pictures i've seen, there are some things i would love to incorporate into my closet or home...

wishes: fabric and handle

i am in love with this shop!

i want one of every bag they make, but the totes are def my fav.

love the stirpes!

how cool is this funky purple pattern?

and this mint green linen is my fav.

and while my first thought was, "can i make this?", my second thought was, "no way. at $39 this tote is a steal!".

i'm getting one asap.

new do?

i saw this fab hair tutorial over at a cup of jo and just had to give it a try.

i'm not usually one for up-dos of any kind. i don't wear a lot of ponytails or even pull my hair half up much. unless it's dirty! but i'm trying to do learn more ways to have a casual up-do so i don't always feel like my hair has to look perfect down.

now, my hair totally does not look the same as hers but i think i did a pretty good job for my first try. i'm going to keep working on this one because i really like it. the messiness makes it feel less like an up-do. and i actually thought i looked pretty good with my hair up. that's unusual for me!

whatcha think?

hello oscar.

were you watching last night?

i love the oscars for so many reasons. mainly for the red carpet but especially when there are a lot of high quality films up for so many awards. and the academy sure didn't disappoint this year!

let's start with my fav picks on the red carpet.

um, hello. do you not already know how much i love gwenyth? i loved when the asked her who she'd love to work with and she said, "Jay Z". it was a total white girl moment!

i love me some javier bardem. who wouldn't? those spaniard good looks. that accent. maybe he's why i majored in spanish ;)

sandra was a beauty last night, as usual. i can't even believe where she was a year ago. great comeback night for her. i loved her presenting the award for best actor too. she called jeff bridges dude!

jesse eisenberg was great in the social network. i thought maybe he was only like that in the movie but i think he might be a real life ass. just saying. or maybe he's just a little awkward and doesn't know how to handle the stardom yet?

this was my fav dress last night. mila kunis is a beauty and this dress was stunning on her.

on to the show...

i think james and anne did a pretty good job. my fav joke of the night was when james was in a hot pink gown and made a joke about charlie sheen. i think anne is a natural borne comedienne. but i miss the days of billy crystal. the dancing, the singing, the huge production. that was the great stuff!

hello? you're at the oscars melissa. we don't say the f word. i'm glad she won though.

my two favs won. everyone knew they would. i especially love when they thank their family, more specifically their spouses or significant others. they both did so lovingly and they were so eloquent and heartfelt. they both truly deserved the win for their roles. plus who wouldn't love to say to their kid one day, "i won this oscar when i was pregnant with you. you were on the oscar stage with me!" that would be so awesome. so would being either one of their children, duh. (don't worry mom i'm not vying for a celeb parent, you're still the best mommy ever!)

and here was the highlight of the show for me...

awesome.

what did you think?

can i pull this off?

so i've had this black blazer sitting in my closet forever. i loved it when i bought and have loved it ever since but have never worn it.

i decided to be brave saturday when we went to brunch.

usually if i can just make it down the stairs with an outfit on i'm good to go for the day.

so once i got completely ready and put on the blazer dead last and ran down the stairs!

and i wore it all day people!

so tell me...did i pull it off?

full body shot

being goofy

peace out peeps

sorry about the iphone pics but my camera is dunzo and i can't afford another one right now. boo.

wishes: madewell

it's a no brainer that i love madwell. hello, it's a birth of j.crew. obvi.

here are some of my favs...

this top would look great casual like the look above or paired with a skirt for a hot date with my hunk.

everyone needs a good trench, right? just give me $228. please?

this dress looks so comfy and chic.

can i pull these off?

obsessed with yellow right now.

also have a slight addiction to belts. maybe it's this incredible waist i'm getting? ha.

and geek chic is sooooo in. i'm getting new glasses asap!

if you could have anything from there sight what would it be?

it's a no brainer that i love madwell. hello, it's a birth of j.crew. obvi.

wishes: oh jcrew

O.M.G. i just can't even wait for the spring line at j.crew.

these are the things on my wish list. and the fact that i'm get skinner every day is making me drool even more!
