2013 Emmy Red Carpet

Woohoo! Ya'll know I love a good red carpet. Here are my favorites from the 2013 Emmy Red Carpet: 

Jessica Pare in Oscar de la Renta

Michelle Dockery in Prada- Would you look at that back!!!!

Kaley Cuoco in Vera Wang 

I'm not usually a Vera fan but this dress feels so delicate which is a huge feat with the dark color. 

Shaun Robinson 

Wowzas, this is a gorgeous gown- edgy without being trashy

Laura Dern in Naeem Khan

That lace is stunning and the color is perfect for her.

And the winner of the night is.... 

Carrie Brownstein 

I have no idea who the designer is but this dress looks so fresh and chic. In a sea of poof she somehow made me stop and appreciate a fabulous cut and simple pattern. Bravo.

Happy Sunday! Here's what we've been up to:

A few weeks ago my Honda CRV was hit causing some pretty good damage. While she's being fixed, Jason arranged for me to drive my dream car, the Volvo XC60. Hellooooo lovah. Maybe one day. 

On Saturday we attended the DFW Humane Society's Black Collar Gala. Um, we were a little overdressed, but had fun supporting a cause we love. 

So my eyesight is terrible and I've got to get a new pair of Specs. These Oliver Peoples are kind of a dream, but I'm also giving glasses from Rivet and Sway a shot. I love that you can try 3 pairs at home!

Who says messy is bad?

How was your week?

Happy Sunday! Here's what's buzzing this week: 

We went to 6 Flags for my hub's annual Family Company Picnic along with our friends family. Don't we all look related???? And raise your hand if you're too old to ride roller coasters anymore. 

I recently ran across this story about rowing being the next hot exercise. Anybody else love to row? I find it relaxing. 

 

I ordered my first Mosaic book via my Iphone this week and it's SO cute. It was so easy and reasonably priced that I'm looking forward to ordering a new one each quarter.

 

I finally got to see Austenland at the Magnolia this weekend. HOLY HELL it was FUNNNNNNY. If you love Jane Austen and unabashed camp you'll love it. This has been hands down my favorite Austen spoof. 

WHY doesn't this live in my closet? If I'm not mistaken this was part of Eduardo Calvo's collection for SuPima.... yep, like the Cotton Lobby. They held a brilliant design contest for NYFW and the pieces are to die for. 

How was your weekend?

The Beehive: September 2nd

Happy Labor Day! Why Labor Day?

We watched an old Shark Tank featuring Mee-Ma's Louisiana Gumbo Brick. GET IN MY BELLY NOW!!! 

The Butler was wonderful and very well directed. It definitely made me want to pick up a few more history based books this fall. 

I totally bought a monogrammed baseball cap and I lurve it. 

I'm going through some ballet withdrawals. I need to find a performance stat. 

Have a great week world!
