So.. Sandra Bullock looked amazing, as did Meryl Streep. Congratulations to the nominees and winners!

family roots

Since I can remember, I have always been fascinated with my family history. Earlier this week I received an e-mail from ancestry.com informing me about the premiere of their new show Who Do You Think You Are? on NBC. According to NBC, the series leads celebrities on a journey of self-discovery as they unearth their family trees that reveal surprising, inspiring and even tragic stories that often are linked to crucial events in American history. First up? None other than the beloved Sarah Jessica Parker. I immediately grabbed my remote control, searched the guide menu and my good friend TiVo agreed to record the first episode on Friday night! 


Is anyone else into this? If so, check out or create your family tree on ancestry.com 

hey, zac posen, i love you.

Wow. How Refreshing. Read this article and you'll know what I'm talking about. A round of applause to the handsome, stylish designer and his new line, Z Spoke. Here's lookin' at you Zac.

fall twenty-ten ready-to-wear.

yep. I just died a little inside. Adam Lippes, designer behind the I-want-his-pieces-in-my-closet-now, created an amazing collection for his line ADAM. His fall twenty-ten looks are the perfect ingredients for any mouth-watering fashion casserole-- and baked to perfection I might add. I'm in love with the color palette he choose- something I've been trying to emulate in my daily wardrobe. The juxtaposition of earthy tones with bright tangerine and rust hues are to die for. Oh, and the layering? Perfection. Those jackets... swoooon.

    

sigh.

Sigh.
Shoulder shrug.
Siiiiiigh.
It was a stressful weekend- and I'm exhausted.
The rjd2 show was pretty awesome, besides the fact I lost my purse.
Argh. My wallet (oh, my beloved, buttery-soft leather, BOTTEGA wallet) is history. Oh how I'll miss you. Apparently, someone needed you more than I did.
Life goes on...

I'm praying this week will go by q u i c k l y. My lovely Mum and Dad are coming to Austin this weekend to visit. Yay for free meals and lots of love! I'm looking forward to spending time with them- I havn't seen them since Christmas!

On another note, Friday I had orientation for volunteering at the Town Lake Animal Center. I am so excited to have the opportunity to give pups some much needed lovin'. I think it will be a great way to get out in the community and use my time in a way that helps others-- one of my New Year's resolutions... Check!

I'm kinda brain dead so I think I'm going to call it a night- I hope everyone had a great weekend and a marvelous Monday! Bon Soir!

rjd2 tonight!

Getting ready to go see rjd2 + Kenan Bell + Happy Chichester at Emo's toniight!
