Happy Weekend- Say Cheese!

Happy Weekend!  I'm headed to South Florida  . . . 

Look of the Week:

I already wore my Kardashian inspired outfit last month in Tampa, so who knows what I'll wear this weekend.  I would LOVE to see Kim and Kourtney and baby Penelope as they take Miami yet again!

Story of the Week:
Matthew McConaughey slims down . . . way down.

 "Can you touch this?" Matty asked not too long ago.  Well, I don't think anyone wants to now.  Maybe I'm getting cynical in my old age, or maybe I should start calling this the "Publicity Stunt of the Week," but I just feel like its such a waste when celebs drop all this weight for a role. First, I think its sort of disrespectful to people who are actually starving or ill.  Not to mention special effects (need I remind you that Lt. Dan didn't have legs in the 90's?!) and makeup have improved each year . .  I'm sure there were other ways to make him look sick and skinny.  But celebs feel like they have to make the sacrifice for the award nomination.  Anne Hathaway with your shorn hair and Matt with your bony cheeks . . . I hope it pays off come February.

Post of the Week:
Omg, Me Too

Yep, I only posted once this week and it was about (surprise!) Mindy Kaling.

Rental of the Week:
Magic Mike

Matty McConaughey in his meatier days . . .and my favorite movie of the summer.  It actually doesn't come out until the 23rd, but why not start counting down now?

Movie Ticket of the Week:
Argo
I've probably seen this trailer 50 times in theaters.  I'm not sure why Ben is promoting the heck out of it, as he's a well respected director these days and I'm sure it will do fine at the box office.  Still, looks good.  John Goodman is working these days. He's like in 5 movies this season alone.

Wedding Story of the Week:
Stanley Tucci and Felicity Blunt

This actually happened a few weeks ago, but after hearing Stanley discuss it on Live! with Kelly and Michael this week, I just had to gush.

So first, Stanley Tucci married Emily Blunt's sister.  Because I'm CFC, I believe that Felicity is a kinder version of Emily's Devil Wears Prada character, and that Stanley is a combination of Nigel from DWP and Paul Child.

So that pretty much seems like the best couple ever?  Then today I find out . . .

Stanley has a cookbook coming out, their wedding guests included Steve Buscemi and Emily Blunt as best man and matron of honor, brother-in-law John Krasinski, Meryl Streep, Patricia Clarkson, Julianne Moore, Colin Firth and Kenneth Cole.. . . and their wedding cake was made of wheels of cheese. Best wedding ever?

Hope your weekend is filled with harem pants, male strippers, and wheels of cheese.  

Pretty Princess and Lovely Megan

Did you watch the Emmy's?  Do you feel like you're not part of the cool kids because you don't watch Breaking Bad OR Shameless?  Thank God I finally caught up on Downton.  My red carpet faves:

Julie Bowen

 I've been really into this neon green/yellow since this Spring.  Now I'm afraid I've missed my chance to rock it until warmer weather rolls around.

Kerry Washington

 Everyone has been telling me that if I like Revenge, I'll also like Scandal.  Are the clothes always this gorgeous?

Tina Fey

 Already getting so sad about the end of 30 Rock. Happy about this dress, though.

Zooey Deschanel

Pretty pretty princess.

Jessica Pare

 "Lovely Megan . . ."  I'm not even fat Betty and I'm feeling jealous.

Hayden Panettiere

A tad toga costume, but the colors looks so great on her, now I'm wanting a blue and gold dress to go with my blond hair and blue eyes.

You can catch me on Fashion Police tonight recapping the best and worst of the Emmys!

Just kidding, but you can catch me in my hotel room yelling at the tv screen and pretending to be offended when Joan says something outrageous.  Oh Joan . . .

Edited: I also feel like I'm not part of the cool kids because I don't watch Homeland.

CFC Class- A Night at the Ballet

Read: 
A Lofty Discussion on Ballet

This article on SJP's involvement with the NYC Ballet and Valentino's new costumes is one of those pieces that totally blurs the line between Sarah Jessica and Carrie Bradshaw. I mean, aren't they they same person?

Browse: 
Sarah Jessica Parker, Anne Hathaway, Martha Stewart at Valentino’s Ballet Gala

This slideshow of pics from the gala red carpet.   Anne looks wonderful!

Ponder:
Candace Bushnell Files for Divorce, Claims Husband Had an Affair

I always enjoyed how Carrie almost ended up with an artist (played by a dancer) when the real life Carrie actually ended up with a ballet man. This bit of (old) gossip makes you wonder how things could have turned out if Carrie stayed in Paris with the Russian. 

 Watch:

   

 A very young Alexander Petrovsky (okay, Mikhail Baryshnikov) during a ballet solo. I'll admit that I'm giggling over the youtube comments about his "powerful buttocks."

Happy Weekend- Coastal Living

I think we all have a fantasy life.  Mine involves living on the Florida gulf coast, going to the beach every day, wearing flip flops and never bothering to straighten my hair.  Basically I'd live out a Kenny Chesney song 24/7.

After spending the week in Naples, and doing some significant people watching/ lunchtime eavesdropping, I've realized that even people on a permanent vacation have problems too.  Like the women at Cheesecake Factory who debated how much botox is too much.  (I'd say five injections ago, ladies.)  And a grumpy old man who cursed an afternoon thunderstorm that interrupted his tee time.  

But check out that view . . .

What I've been up to lately:
Reviews of Hit and Run and Lawless
MTAD for Trouble with the Curve and The Big Wedding
Confessions and Style Aspirations

Behind the scenes clip of the week: 

Its going to change our lives, right?  I'm so excited.

Rental of the Week:

Speaking of movie musicals, the last one to win Best Picture was Chicago in 2002.  Love it?  Watch it again and sing along!  Never seen it?  What is wrong with you?
Look of the Week:

Speaking of little dresses and razzle dazzle, I saw this window shopping in Nordstrom and fell in love.  I want to wear it to a New Year's party with a faux bob, glitter headband and all that jazz.

Story of the Week:
Kanye and Kim get a Kat.

Is anyone else hoping Kim gets out of her marriage to Kris quickly so we can have a Kim and Kanye wedding?  The sheer absurdity of it actually gives me chills.  Cute kitty though.

Movie Ticket of the Week:

Justin Randall Timberlake on the big screen.  Don't let me down!

Happy Weekend!
