Golden Globes 2010

Charming Creativity's winner for best dressed Golden Globes 2010 is....

Drumroll please...

Lea Michele!

I am sure her life is now complete!  What would she have done without my fake award!?   I happen to love Spring Awakening as well as Glee so she holds a special place in my heart.  She looked incredible from head to toe.  Of course it is Oscar de la Renta.  I love everything about this dress.  Especially that sweetheart neckline which pretty amazing.  She really took the fact that this was her first Golden Globes seriously.  And I appreciate that!  Also, it is hard to tell from this picture, but her earrings are also amazing.  She also had flawless makeup and she has incredible eyebrows.  Ok I am done now.  



I also have two runner ups.  And they both win for most attractive couple.

Thanks to Greenweddingshoes for posting these pics!  
Emily Blunt looks so fantastic here in a Dolce and Gabbana gown.  I love the drama of her dress without going over the top.  She is also glowing.  Which I think has to do with the fact that she is engaged to John Krasinski.  Enough said.

I know Diane Kruger's Christian Lacroix dress got mixed reviews.  But for me it was seriously gorgeous and a fashion risk.  What a great color!  Love the ombre effect as well as the ruffle detail.  I am always a sucker for fabric detail and chiffon and organza..as you can tell from all three of my winning dresses!  Haha!  Oh... and she is dating Pacey...um cough cough I mean Joshua Jackson, so naturally she gets a few extra points.

I just totally dorked out and admitted I loved Dawson's Creek... ok whatever moving on.

I should also mention my worst dressed.  Sigh... Lady, put those things away.

Listen Mariah.. I have big boobies too, so from one big boobie lady to another, you are at a classy event and everyone knows you got them.  So you don't need to flaunt them at this particular occasion.  Thank you.


Can't wait to see the next Red Carpet!

A Rug made out of old belts!


How cool is this?!?!  I love when people repurpose things in such away that make them even better than before!  What once was a raggedy old belt is now a part of a pretty awesome rug.

How did I JUST find out about this...


I love Natalie Portman and I love shoes.  I remember hearing she was thinking about doing a Vegan line of shoes and I was so excited... So it turns out it happened and ended before I even knew about it!  The store was called Te Casan I believe and I keep on trying to find their website and it no longer exists!  There was a store in Soho and it closed!!!!  


All of this came about when I found the most INCREDIBLE WEDDING (that deserves its own post) on http://www.stylemepretty.com/ 

They posted this amazing wedding that took place in my new home of Connecticut.  She based the wedding off of a pair of Natalie Portman shoes that are just INCREDIBLE.  I mean, incredible in ALL CAPS.  I can't find them anywhere.  But, I will take this moment of inspiration and begin my search for the shoe that speaks to me.  Because we all know how I love shoes! 

As for Natalie Portman's shoe that sparked this post... 




This fabulous photo of the beauties is by Robert and Kathleen Photographers that are based out of Connecticut as well as the Bride who happens to be the event planner of Jubilee Events.  As I discussed this wedding is so amazing it deserves it's own post.  With a wedding based on shoes like this, you can see why!


I wanted to take this moment to remember my fabulous engagement shoe.  I needed to find the perfect shoe!  Here is a reminder of that hot, fun and flirty engagement shoe


The wedding shoe has to top these hot tamales!!!!  That is a lot to live up to!

If only it were spring


During this crazy snow we are having here in Connecticut, I would like to give a little spring inspiration.  Doesn't this photo just scream sunny, spring day .... in a fashionable sort of way. Something tells me I am going to be wearing a lot more winter coats and a lot less cute yellow dresses with grey belts in my near future...

Oh Penelope...


If the world was a high fashion, spanish runway at all times.. I would walk around like this... Oh, also I would like to look like Penelope without having to go to the gym or cut out cheese from my diet.  
Hmmm Since this is a black dress, and the shoes are purple.. I know its super short but couldn't I convince my bridesmaids that this is appropriate? haha 
I also must point out that she is wearing a fabulous cocktail ring.. sort of like the fabulous cocktail ring in a previous post...  
Penelope has some SERIOUS sex appeal.  I bet you she is this hot in PJs too.  



New Obsession


I can't help it... I LOVE Marc Jacobs.  I also am a little bit obsessed with this ring.  It just represents the most perfect fun, whimsical, fashionable cocktail ring.  AND, to make it even more fabulous... it has perfume inside it.  And it comes in a cute little pouch.  I obviously need a new perfume.. and I obviously need a new ring to compliment my new engagement bling don't you think???? ;)    LOVE THIS...
