And the Husband goes to...

So as everyone probably knows, the Oscars were on Sunday and as usual, my favorite part is seeing all the beautiful dresses:) I really don't feel the need to see who wins best short foreign language animation and all the other crazy categories. And it is at events like these, when I find myself picking which dress of all the celebs, that I would wear, should some crazy random opportunity ever present itself:) I guess I miss my sorority formal days because of the dressing up! Anyway, I digress. I have my favorites from sunday night, but I won't take your time with that because it would really be a rambling! As I was thinking about this sort of sensationalized circus that takes place annually, I found myself (as I often do) correlating the Oscars to another of my loves-weddings! Is it just me or does it seem like the Oscars are trying to be the wedding of all Hollywood? Let me break it down here:                                                                                                                 Oscars

  hopefully concluding in you ending up                

  with a little man of gold

   a heart of gold ;)

   that with the right person, everyday puts 

        the Oscars to shame :)

**serious warning**

I tease, but I know and fully respect the sanctity of marriage and in no way does an over the top Hollywood shindig compare. There. 

One more thing!

I am so amused by all the fashion critics that contradict each other on the best/worst dressed. 

I literally heard polar opposite opinions about every dress! "oh it looked like a cupcake, seen it a hundred times. sigh." says Mr.Fashionface, while someone else(who at one time, in one year wrote one fashion piece that makes them an expert) says (about the same dress) "this dress is too elegant and beautiful to be worn by such a young person". I laugh to myself, because really, who passed them through the fashion police academy?? Exactly.
