Man Candy Monday – Justin Chatwin

It’s been awhile, but I’m linking up with one of my best blogging buddies, Leeann for another edition of Man Candy Monday. There is no better way to start the week than staring at some Hollywood Hotties!



Shameless on Showtime is back in full swing which means I get to see my latest celebrity crush Justin Chatwin, who plays Steve/Jimmy on the show. I don’t know if it’s the scruff or the blue eyes, but he is just so handsome. Let me know if you agree…

Golden Globes 2012 - Red Carpet

This year the red carpet was impressive with the colors of the night being blush and navy. Most of the stars wore gowns that suited them perfectly and this is one of the first times I’ve had trouble narrowing down my favorites.

Here are the best and worst of the night (according to me):

Best Dressed:

Charlize Theron in Dior Couture

This was by far my favorite gown of the night. From the blush color that suits her skin tone perfectly to the fit and style. She was stunning!

Reese Witherspoon in Zac Posen

It's no secret that Reese is one of my favorite celebs. Her style is always on point and she looks beautiful as the lady in red.

Kate Beckinsale in Roberto Cavalli

Kate is always so classy and absolutely gorgeous. My favorite part of this gown is the beautiful chiffon pleat detail at the bottom. Her jewelry and hair also fit the look perfectly.

Zooey Deschanel in Prada

I wouldn’t have liked this dress on anyone else but Zooey. The black and green combo had an almost mod feel to it, which goes so well with Zooey’s overall style. I also had to include a shot of her fantastic Tuxedo nails that she posted on Instagram.



Nicole Richie in Julien Macdonald

Nicole has come a long way with her style and the dress she wore to the awards proves that. The dress shows off her arms and back beautifully and the beading really makes it a standout.

Heidi Klum in Calvin Klein



I couldn’t post this without mentioning Heidi Klum’s turquoise necklace. That’s what I call a statement piece. It made her entire look!

Worst Dressed:

Lea Michele in Marchesa

This looks a figure skating costume gone bad.

Amanda Peet in Marc Jacobs

This dress might make for some cute shabby chic curtains

Piper Perabo in Theyskens’ Theory

This is all wrong from the color to the fact that it's see through

To end on a positive note, I had to include these cuties on the carpet!

Fashion Friday – Reese Witherspoon

I’m linking up with Kori at Blonde Episodes for Fashion Friday. After seeing some photos of Reese Witherspoon at this year’s CMA Awards, I knew I wanted to share how much I adore her fashion sense. From casual to glam, she knows what she’s doing and rarely has a fashion miss.

One of my favorite things about her style is that her day-to-day outfits are very easy to replicate. Whether it be Wayfarers with a scarf or riding boots and denim, she’s effortlessly chic.

Summer shows

Gone are the days of boring television during the summer. I remember when there was nothing on during the warmer months. Now there are a plethora of shows and here are some of my favorites:

So You Think You Can Dance

So much talent and so many different styles of dance.

Keeping Up with the Kardashians

It’s obviously scripted, but still fun to take a peek into their world

The Bachelorette

Each season I swear that I’m over it and then get sucked right back in. I have to admit that Ashley is uber-annoying and I’m only half paying attention every week.

Real Housewives of New Jersey

Total guilty pleasure, though shows like this and Jersey Shore give the Tri-State area a bad name.

True Blood

Three words: Eric. Bill. Jason

Entourage

The last season. Tear.

What are you watching this summer?

Man Candy Monday – Alexander Skarsgård

My weekend consisted mainly of work, work and more work. Instead of boring you with a lame recap, I thought I’d play along with Leeann for Man Candy Monday. Looking at gorgeous men is the perfect way to start the week if you ask me.

This week is inspired by the latest cover of GQ. I was checking out some mags when I saw one of my favorite Hollywood hunks gracing the cover, Alexander Skarsgård.

Oscar Fashion 2011

Overall, I was impressed with the fashion at this year’s Academy Awards. I also loved the opening and think that Anne Hathaway and James Franco did an excellent job as hosts. Natalie Portman taking home the Oscar for Best Actress was a great moment and I’ve now realized that I need to see The King’s Speech.

Onto the fashion:

Best Dressed

Reese Witherspoon in Giorgio Armani Privé

Sleek and chic in black and white. She also gets my vote for best hair.

Jennifer Lawrence in Calvin Klein Collection

This dress fit her like a glove and I loved that she didn’t wear any jewelry. The gown spoke for itself.

Gwyneth Paltrow in Calvin Klein Collection
Glowing in gold. I don’t think anyone else could pull this gown off as well as she did. Gorgeous.

Mila Kunis in Elie Saab

Lavender and lace elegance. I think she is beautiful.

Anne Hathaway in Valentino

Red seemed to rule the red carpet and this was the first of many gowns (and even a tux). She looked beautiful all night long.

Worst Dressed

Melissa Leo in Marc Bouwer

This looked like a bad doily (and her speech was huge turnoff).

Nicole Kidman in Dior

I love her, but not this dress

Helena Bonham Carter in Colleen Atwood

She was celebrating film over fashion. Fine, but I don’t like it.

Cate Blanchett in Givenchy Couture

Beautiful color, I just wasn’t a fan of the structure.

Scarlett Johansson in Dolce & Gabbana

The wine color and lace was very pretty. The sheerness I didn’t like.
