English Beauty Keira Knightley


Keira Knightley is a great actress, gorgeous, and sassy all in one.  Have you seen these stunning photos of her from this month's Interview Magazine?  


THE THING ABOUT GREAT FICTIONAL CHARACTERS FROM LITERATURE IS THAT THEY COMPLETELY SPEAK TO WHAT MAKES PEOPLE HUMAN.

Snow White and the Huntsman


As you probably know, Mirror, Mirror with Julia Roberts and Lily Collins came out Friday and is the more comical story of Snow White.  (See my previous post here for photos).  I can't wait to see it, but I have to admit, I'm much more excited for the darker version of the story, Snow White and the Huntsman.  This one stars Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron, and Chris Hemsworth as the Huntsman.  As I said in my previous post I've always been fascinated by the Evil Queen and can't wait to see Charlize and her portrayal of her.  


Look at that fabulous costume!  Here's some trivia about the film:

--Angelina Jolie and Winona Ryder were considered to play Ravenna, the Evil Queen.

--Charlize dropped out from J.Edgar to play this role.

--Johnny Depp, Tom Hardy, and Michael Fassbender were considered to play Eric, the Huntsman.

--Dakota Fanning, Selena Gomez, Saoirse Ronan, Riley Keough, Alicia Vikander, Bella Heathcote, Emily Browning, Lily Collins, and Felicity Jones were all considered for the role of Snow White.






Check out the trailer:


What do you think?  Will you go see it?  The film is scheduled to be in theaters June 1.

Do Brunettes Have More Fun?


I've been blonde for over a year now and I think I'm getting ready for a change.  My natural color is a light brown...I will show you what my color in high school was below.  I've had every color from blonde to black, but feel like it hasn't been the right shade.  I'm noticing how you dry and part your hair makes a huge difference in how the color looks.  And, of course, you need professional hair dryers to achieve that perfect blowout.  Here's what I'm thinking...






and, here's me in high school, it looks like I was ahead of the ombre trend huh? LOL



I definitely don't think I'm that dark naturally anymore, but maybe I should try it?  Thoughts?

2012 Academy of Country Music Awards Fashion


Did you get a chance to catch the ACM's last night?  If you're like me and love country music, you wouldn't miss it.  The red carpet had some hit and misses, but of course my boyfriend Luke Bryan looked AMAZING!!  Check out the photos and tell me what you think.  

Carrie looked pretty as usual, but I wish she would take a risk.

Fashionable Fitness


As some of you know, I'm really into working out and getting fit lately.  It's hard to look pretty while you're sweating to death, but workout clothes have come a long way.  My favorite color pink is everywhere, and some of the running clothes are a lot of fun.  Here are some of my picks for a fashionable workout courtesy of Nordstrom.
