Drop Dead Drew


Look who just keeps getting prettier, classier, and appears more relaxed?  Drew Barrymore, that's who. Drew has had so many ups and downs in her life.  It's great to see her comfortable in her own skin, happy, healthy, and of course sporting that mommy glow!  Drew graces the cover of Harper's Bazaar next month.  Issue will be available February 12th.

Hollywood Sparkle

(Of course I have to love Victoria Beckham's ring, since she's my style icon.  Look at this lovely given to her by husband David Beckham)

Celebrity engagement/wedding rings are a bit of an obsession for me.  I'm always fascinated by the type of ring a person picks and how it reflects their personality.  I'm also always curious about who picked the ring, was it the soon-to-be groom or did they go ring shopping together before the proposal?  

(Jennifer Garner's gorgeous 4.5 carat gem from husband Ben Affleck)

(How adorable is she?  Reese Witherspoon displaying her lovely 4-carat stone and bands given to her by hubby Jim Toth)

(Check out this 16-carat custom designed Robert Procop stunner Brad Pitt gave to Angelina Jolie)

(This is one of my all time favorites...unique pink diamond given to Blake Lively by husband Ryan Reynolds)

FAVORITE!

(I'm not a huge Jessica Biel fan--since I'm in love with Justin and all, but her ring is my favorite of the bunch.  It's a vintage-inspired 6-carat, given to her by husband Justin Timberlake)

(The most famous engagement ring in the world?  I think so.  Kate Middleton displaying the 18-carat formerly belonging to Princess Diana.  Given to her by Prince William of course)

(Recently engaged Kelly Clarkson with a gorgeous canary diamond given to her by fiance Brandon Blackstock)

(Gisele Bunchen and hubby Tom Brady showing off her gorgeous ice)

(Large square-cut diamond looking amazing on Gwyneth Paltrow given to her by hubby Chris Martin)

So, I'm curious, which one is your favorite, what style of ring do you have, and did you or your husband/fiance pick out your ring?

SAG Awards 2013

(Look at these gorgeous men!)

As you know, it's awards season, and once again I'm so impressed with this year's old Hollywood glamour!  It's nice to see celebs looking lovely and classic, while still incorporating the new trends.  


(Best Dressed Couple of the Night: Liev Shreiber and Naomi Watts)


(Sofia Vergara--not a huge fan of hers, but loving the classy look, the color, and the fact that her bust is not falling out like normal)


(Bradley Cooper going solo)


(My favorite consistently...Marion Cotillard is such a gorgeous example of what Hollywood should be)


(Not sure about the dress for Claire Danes, but loving the vamp lip)


(Jessica Chastain--a bit boring, but still lovely)


(Jennifer Garner--not sure about the color, but I love her personality and she always looks gorgeous...such a natural beauty)


(Kaley Cuoco--thoughts?  I love the dress, I love her hair, I LOVE HER, just not sure if I love it all together...have to think about this one.  She is adorable though)


(First of all, what is Carmen Electra doing there?  But, she looks fabulous, except those I'm so over it pointed claws)


(This was my favorite colored piece of the night--Nina Dobrev)

7 Days of Love--Day 7: I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues


I hope you all had a great weekend!  Today marks the end of my series, "7 Days of Love."  There are so many things to love, it was hard to narrow it down to just seven, but today I'm loving the color blue. I usually don't fancy the blues, but lately I'm noticing them in all shades and have fallen in love.  It's the perfect color to wear for spring, and looks amazing with a tan.  What do you think?

7 Days of Love--Day 6: Cruisin'


DAY 6

Yay!  It's the weekend, finally.  I hope you're all looking forward to a few days off.  Any big plans?  I'm grading, grading, and grading some more.  Finals were yesterday, so I'm a bit behind, with the sinus infection and all.  

Moving right along, today I'm sharing what I love for my series "7 Days of Love."  We're on day 6, and today I'm loving beach cruisers or bicycles of any kind.  Living in Southern CA, one of my favorite things to do is take my pink beach cruiser out for a ride on the boardwalk.  There's nothing like riding around, stopping for lunch, and getting a tan while the wind's in your hair.  I don't get to go often anymore, but want to make a priority to get there this spring and summer.  We've been having such great weather that I might even get to go next month!  The photo above is me and my dad, out for the day with others on a ride.  Check out my airbrushed t-shirt lol.  Let's just say the photo is from about 10 years ago...enjoy!










Ready to build your own custom cruiser?  If you're like me and watch Shark Tank, you probably saw Villy Customs present.  I loved their ideas and had to share.  I am not paid or rewarded in any way for this recommendation.  Head over to Villy Custom's and build your own custom cruiser!  Tell them I sent you!

Don't forget to enter my giveaway for 3 pieces from Mac + Jac!  It ends tomorrow!  Good luck!
