Oscar Day!!!

Hi there...

Happy Oscar day!! I always get so excited to watch. Even though I usually sleep in on the weekends... well within reason (8:30-ish)... but today, I got up at 7:00 on the dot and I've been spending all day decorating for our dinner party tonight. I've got my outfit for tonight all laid out on the bed and ready to go. Ben is currently glued to the TV, watching the Heritage Classic Canucks game (such a guy) while he can before the red carpet.

I just wanted to post now before I go get ready and our friends show up. In this post, I have a look at my favourite looks from last year, what I'm wearing tonight as well as what I'd be wearing if I were invited to the Oscars. I hope you guys all enjoy the show!

Okay, so... I suck. I know I said that this season I would only be taking half a month off of the blog but well... things happen. I'm back now however, trying to make it up to you. Last year I began posting glimpses of the things that I was giving to my family for Christmas but much like everything else I promise on the blog, I gave up half way through... this year I've decided to give it another try. In this post I'll be showing you what I bought for my sisters-in-law (Ben's sisters). I hope that this gives you a bit of a picture of who they are and I hope you enjoy. Look forward to more coming soon as well as (hopefully) an outfit post.
