The Met Costume Institute Gala

This is seriously one of my favorite events for celebrities because apparently the theme is formal with a twist so you'll never know what you'll see at this one.

Let's start with the first row. These are my top earners.
Taylor Swift apparenly received an email from Badgley Mischka stating that they would like to dress the singer for the event...and to think all I look forward to are facebook emails...
Ivanka Trump looks incredible despite the fact that the outfit was inspired by the queen in Labrynth...
Fergie looks hot and ferocious. I don't love the eye make up, but I do love the one shoulder.
Beyonce reminds me of a beauty queen Barbie, but I don't mind.



Above are my favorite couples of the evening.
J.Lo is looking gorgeous after the giving birth to twins less than three montsh ago. The color is fabulous.
Victoria Beckham will always be in a world of her own in my eyes. I particularly love the raised neckline of her dress.
Diane Krueger is suddenly very popular with the fashion forces, but can you blame them? I love the dress and the pink shoes are the perfect touch. Not to mention she's dating Joshua Jackson who is one of my favorite teen drama stars of all time. But even old Pacey is looking sharp at this event. Love it.

Here's where things start to get strange...
Scarlett Johansson did just get engaged to Ryan Reynolds so maybe dreams of wedding dresses inspired her to wear this tulle number. I wish she would have done her hair better and that the dress was in a better color.
Jennifer Connelly is always a 'No' in my book. I think it's the eyebrows.
I usually love Rachel Bilson, but she let me down here. This high-neck dark blue number is just dull and reminds me of a bad comic book character. And the hair?
Katie Holmes' dress is really cute. I love the color on her, but those stupid bright blue shoes just don't work with it. Not to mention they increase her tower over hubby Tom Cruise by like 4 inches.


Eva Longoria Parker looks like she's being swallowed by purple frills.
However, Christina Ricci is probably the biggest disappointment for me. Lately she's been right on with her own style and looking very chic and fabulous, but still slightly different. I have no idea what the girl was thinking with this one.

Oh...and who's this anorexic girl that wandered into the party in a blind state of hunger?

my next girl crush...

To continue my One Tree Hill girls post...I'm writing about Sophia Bush.

On the show, the raspy-voiced Brooke Davis is a the owner of a fashion line called Clothes over Bros. She once dated Lucas, (but who didn't) and is now one of the best friends you could ever find. Brooke fronted Peyton the money to start her record label and rescued Rachel from her heroine addiction. She has now decided she wants to have a baby, which is an amazing new story line if I do say so myself.

In real life Sophia Bush was actually engaged to Chad Michael Murray before he left her for an 18-year-old extra on the show...jackass. She's had some big screen success in John Tucker Must Die and The Hitcher. Bush has also started to get credit for her sense of style, frequently being named on best dressed list.

it's been too long

I haven't posted in months. I've been busy, but most importantly my lap top died so I no longer have the luxury of sitting in front of the TV while posting. Today I decided to revive the blog with a post about my new favorite people: The One Tree Hill girls.

I had never watched One Tree, but when Southey got the part as a heckling fan on an episode, we started watching this season so that we would know what was going on. As a result I have the biggest girl crush on all three of the leading ladies. Hilarie Burton, Sophia Bush, and Bethany Joy Galeotti are my new favorite TV people. I can't help it. They're all beautiful, and I just want to be them.


First and foremost, there is Hilarie Burton or Peyton Sawyer. She's the on-again-off-again love interest of Lucas Scott, played by Chad Michael Murray. (who, by the way, introduces himself as just "Chad" not Chad Michael, not Chicael. just and fyi) Peyton is the coolest of the girls. She wants to own a record label.


In real life, Hilarie Burton got her start on TRL. She won a contest to guest VJ on an episode of TRL but did so well that MTV offered her a permanent position. She's had some bit parts on a few other TV shows, but One Tree Hill was her big breakout role. Burton has done a couple of movies, "Our Very Own" being the most reputable because of it's supporting cast of Allison Janney and Jason Ritter. Still, I've never heard of it. She recently landed a role in the upcoming movie version of "The Secret Life of Bees," which as big names such as Queen Latifah, Dakota Fanning, and Jennifer Hudson.

Here are some pics. She's gorgeous. I'm always amazed by her hair. It's the perfect curls.






I'll follow up with the other fabulous One Tree girls later...

celebrities are not like normal people

These are the most recent pictures of Nicole Richie who had a baby less than a month ago. It makes me sick.

the worst of the SAG awards





She's so pretty, but so boring. So So Boring.






















Apparently he was wearing these colors to support his favorite soccer team.























I usually love Rebecca Gayhart, but the frilly top to the dress is just not working for me.
























Gross.

























She looks to skinny. I hate the neckline. Her hair is attacking her head.























She always lets me down.
