Happy Monday! Did you watch the Oscars last night? I caught the end of it and loved that Julianne Moore’s husband took photos of her with his phone during her speech. There will literally be hundreds of photos of her over the internet but he took some himself. Adorable.
Which Oscar nominated movies have you seen? I’ve seen Big Hero 6 – an amazing, laugh-out-loud, must-see film. The main character reminds me so much of my brother. The Imitation Game – highly recommended. Whiplash – saw about half of it but it was giving me anxiety so I stopped. Grand Budapest Hotel – another half-watched movie that everyone I know loves but I just could not get into no matter how hard I tried. I love the set and the characters but Wes Anderson movies just don’t do it for me. It’s only one of the instances where I’m not white. American Sniper – can we talk about Bradley Cooper’s chest?
While we were shooting this outfit I almost got knocked over by a crowd of photographers madly sprinting and shouting after someone I could not identify. Note to self: know more celebrity faces in preparation for fashion week so that I do not unintentionally walk next to Joe Jonas. (Rather, intentionally walk next to him? Jk.)
I wore this outfit to the Nicholas K show on my first day in NYFW. Nicholas K is well-known for designing the Nova jacket that Jennifer Lawrence wore in Hunger Games: Catching Fire. How cool is that? I’d love to see more Nicholas K designs in the final instalment of the series. I wore a shirt dress from Emerson Fry (I love this one from Ann Taylor as well), a statement necklace (like this one for only $20) to jazz it up, my staple J. Crew suede pumps, and a top coat (similar to this one) to pull it all together.
