I love this outfit. I love the shorts with the old fashioned suspenders. My older brother gave me these shorts 4 years ago and he picked them out ALL by himself. They are still one of my favourites in my closet. I think this outfit is great because it's all in the little details, like pinning an old brooch on to your pocket. Isn't it a sweet little detail? 

How was your weekend? Mine was jammed packed. We saw a play at the Grande theater. Kim's convenience.  For any of you Torontonians have you seen this play? It started at the Fringe festival and has been making its way across the country. 

We also saw Silver linings play book...wow. That has my vote to win best film at the Oscar Nominations. It was fantastic. I also went to a greeting card making party on Sunday. I went away with 10 cards that I had hand made. They are so cute. I'll post some on the blog tomorrow. 

Did you get up to anything fun this weekend? 

Find me on Facebook to see the latest jewels I post, funny tidbits, and photos of my cat.

sneak peak

The oscars are so soon! Here is a sneak peak, a tidbit if you will of my dress, I bought for our annual oscar party.

Hoping to win best dressed for the 2nd year in a row!

Only need to see blue valentine, black swan and buitiful to see all the nominations that I would like to see.

I've seen almost all of the best pictures nominated.

Little less then two weeks! Ah.

Nomination catch up.

I just saw True Grit. Ever since the Oscar nominations came out, I've only been watching (with the exception of Parks and Recreation, Modern Family, the Office and Glee....ha) the nominated films, which you can check out by clicking here. As for movies or rentals, nominated movies are only allowed to be rented or seen in theatre until after the awards ceremony.

Total thumbs up for True Grit. I think Jeff Bridges might have my vote on best actor. Not sure if it's worthy of my vote for best picture yet. I'm still workin' through the list. It was a really great story though, amazing acting and all around great film to sit and watch on a Friday afternoon.

I'm excited to see James Franco and Anne Hathaway host the Oscars. They have been doing some cute skits. It's the first time in a number of years, I think something like 40 years, that the person who is hosting the Oscars at the same time is nominated for an award. Come on James Franco! (although sorry, Bridges gets my vote this year I think)

This is the Oscar Party I threw last year with some of my girlfriends.

KC, Brit, and Tash do it up in fur shawls on our red carpet!
My Mom joins in on the fun.

no pictures, no pictures!
