Anthropologie Wish List

Anthropologie Wish List featuring a silk blouse

Anthropologie Wish List featuring petite dresses

Yesterday, I popped into Anthropologie to pick up this adorable shirt (it is more than likely a Scottie but I don't care I want it to be a Schnauzer and it will be so!). It should be known that I am like a young child in that I absolutely love animal prints. Like prints of actual animals not like leopard or cheetah or zebra. I have shirts with the following animals on them: bunnies, horses, foxes, various breeds of dogs and a dress with lobsters on it. I digress. The clothing in Anthropologie right now is to die for! I seriously could've stayed there for hours fawning over all the cute stuff. The Anthropologie here in the city just opened last summer and I am so grateful I can walk to it! I'm debating getting a job this summer and was considering trying to work at Lululemon for the work clothes discount but stopping in Anthropologie has me questioning that choice...

 

Sunday Social

I hope everyone is having a great weekend! I am, like always, bummed it is Sunday but I am going to try to make the best of this gorgeous day!

I'm linking up again for another round of Sunday Social! 

1. What is one movie you are terrified to watch?

Scary movies that are about things that could actually happen to me like movies about someone being abducted or a disease spreading and killing everyone.

2. What is one TV show you have always wanted to get into but haven't yet?

The Good Wife! I really, really want to start watching it and even try to avoid the commercials on TV but haven't gotten around to watching an episode yet!

3. What is one daring activity on your bucket list?

Uhhh I don't really have anything "daring" on my bucket list. I'd like to hike in the Pacific Northwest but I don't think that's daring?

4. Would you ever travel alone?

I would travel to a place alone like take the flight by myself but no, I do not wish to take a jaunt in Greece all by my lonesome.

However, I do enjoy reading, cleaning, shopping, watching TV alone.

My Absolute Favorite Oscars Look

Hello, friends. I could tell you that life has been crazy busy and I just haven't had time to blog but quite frankly, I haven't had much to share. Maybe that's because life is busy or maybe its just because sometimes the thought of sitting down to write a post seems really daunting. I did make a point to watch the Oscars last night as I have not missed an award show red carpet or actual show all season. Of course last night, I fell fast asleep before any of the awards I actually cared about were announced. I am so bummed I miss J Law in real time but the You Tube version was good, too. 

I think the ladies have been knocking it out of the park this award season! While I really liked, Jessica Chastain, Jennifer Lawrence, Halle Berry, and Jennifer Garner, my absolute favorite look of the night was this:

Because I really don't care at all about Les Miserables, have no desire to see play or movie, and really don't understand the draw, I have never before heard of or seen the gorgeous Samantha Barks. But damn, girlfriend is pretty and working that dress! I absolutely loved this look. It was daring yet classic and fit her like a glove. I hope we get to see more of this girl's fashion!

Coming in at a very, very close second:

Are they the cutest? I think so. Not only are they ridiculously good looking but they seem genuinely happy and grateful to have enjoyed success. It seems to me they work hard at their careers and work hard at their marriage. I really, really hope these two beat the Hollywood marriage odds.

So tell me, who were your favorites at last night's big show?
