good golly, miss molly

don't know why I picked that title. struck my fancy. has nothing to do with the long-ish post to follow. :o)

dress- Monteau, fr. Pseudio

cardigan- H&M

leggings- Seduction, fr. Sirens

boots- Spring

necklace- Tiffany key pendant; S pendant, gift

this is probably the most casual sunday outfit I've had in a looong time! my line of thinking is, if I dress up all week for school or just lying around the house, I should at least have the same standards for church! obviously women don't have to wear dresses or skirts to church anymore, but I'd feel weird looking more casual than I do sitting around watching tv. 

but I had no idea what I wanted to wear yesterday morning, and it was bright and sunny, and I haven't worn this dress in foreverrrr. so I went with it. grabbed a cardigan and just went from there! pretty simple. I didn't even have time to dry my hair, haha. 

today's outfit choice was a little more deliberate.

dress- Topshop

tights- H&M

boots- Charlotte Russe

scarf- Modcloth

I was excited to wear this dress again. it makes me feel so girly and comfortable. last time I wore it with a cardigan and a belt, but this time I thought I'd let the dress stand on it's own. 

I chose grey tights because right now I like light colours with light colours and dark with dark... I don't know why but I'm not into mixing them. then I went with more neutrals, and I kinda really like how it turned out! subtle, but cute. I think, anyways.

on another note, I'm currently watching Oprah's Oscar special (yes, Oprah...sigh) and I'm so nervous for Christoph Waltz! I think he's so cool, but I find him very awkward and so every time he opens his mouth on tv I feel anxious. isn't that strange? I feel nervous for an Academy award winner. 

also, Oprah is such a blatant feminist. she annoys me sometimes.

I had a mini-Oscar party last night that was really fun! six of us got together for a couple drinks and some junk food and watched the show. I was really surprised at the red carpet pre-show, or lack thereof, if you ask me. there didn't seem to be much interest in what people were wearing. I didn't even see many dresses! sad. and nothing seemed out-of-this-world stunning, either. 

my favourite was Anna Kendrick's pale, romantic gown. I thought she looked so soft and pretty, but sexy at the same time. hmm... maybe this was subconsciously my colour inspiration for today?

I adored the top half of Sandra Bullock's vintage beaded dress. the bottom was just okay. but the top definitely made up for it. 

I also thought Vera Farmiga looked pretty awesome. kinda weird, but I personally think it's interesting and beautiful. at least she went all glam for the Oscars- definitely more what I was looking for. 

that's really all I have to say clothing wise. the awards started off strong- why hello, Neil Patrick Harris!- and I fully enjoy Steve Martin and that other guy. but...where did they go? I feel like hosting was the easiest job ever, cause they were only on stage three times. disappointing, to say the least. a person could always use a little more Steve Martin. 

and I only got 11 awards right! this year was really difficult to call. there were so many equally fantastic performances (as lame as that sounds when I read it back in my head...) 

one thing; I really wanted Avatar to win best picture! I saw The Hurt Locker and it was amazing, but Avatar seemed so WOW, you know? like impressive and influential and huge. so I gave Hurt Locker best director and Avatar best picture. why oh why does the Academy never listen to me?

ok that's all for now. 

maybe I should go be productive for the first time in a week. yeah I'll try that. 

(also, I'm in love with this song. raunchy but catchy as hell. )
