Monday Hottie

With all the craziness going on this past week I barely had time to post anything. Now that it's settled down a little I'm back with a delicious one.
George Clooney. Not only has this man gotten better looking with age (few men can achieve this goal) he still has that undeniable wit. Both of the aforementioned reasons make me want to see his new movie Up In The Air.
Bonus: According to IMDB he has 8 movies in the works... exciting!

Retro Style


Vargas Girls print

Fun in the snow

Christy DeKoning sketch
Retro style is always fun, and Christmas time is no exception. Above are three images I wanted to share with you this holiday season.
The first comes courtesy of Vargas Girls. I stumbled across these precious photos today while looking for cute Santa themed pictures. I had heard about Vargas Girls, but never did any research, I am now quite certain I will become obsessed with them.
The middle picture I thought was so cute. I love how perfectly pointed her toes are in those little skates. And her costume lined with fur is too sweet.
The final drawing is courtesy of Christy DeKoning who does beautiful work with water colours. Apparently that gorgeous sketch is for sale (wish list!).

Monday Hottie

Benjamin McKenzie aka Ryan Atwood from a little show called The OC. Saw a re-run of a few episodes last week and was reminded how brooding and adorable Ryan was. Most recently he was on a show called Southland, where he plays a cop, in uniform.... nice.

Super Stache Saturday

Since this is the last Saturday before Christmas I thought I would celebrate with a familiar furry face, Santa Claus! Perfecting that facial hair is one thing the elves can't help Santa with.
Also, Happy Holidays to those who don't celebrate Christmas.

Style Envy

Casual

Dressy ~ my favourite outfit ever is the Versace dress Kate wears in the middle picture.

It's been a busy one for me this week, but nowhere near as busy as Kate Hudson is every day of her life.
Stylishly bohemian, she jets around the Country in style. Even when she's breaking men's hearts (A-Rod) she still manages to look fabulous... maybe that's her secret.

Monday Hottie

Heath Ledger.
I made him my Super Stache Saturday, then went to see the movie Brothers (with Jake Gyllenhaal, Heath's close friend) and there was a preview for his last movie The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. On Sunday found myself wanting to watch 10 Things I Hate About You. So I did, and now I can't not make him my Monday Hottie.
Beautiful, talented, gone too soon.

Heath Ledger.
Someone who, all joking aside, looks equally as handsome with a moustache then he does without one. How many people do you know that can pull that off?

Gisele Bundchen.
This astonishingly gorgeous new mom knows how to walk the runway in style and carry it over into every day life. Wether she's at an event with her gorgeous quarterback husband, or running errands for her new son, she knows how to do it dressed beautifully. And for that, I thank you Gisele. I also thank you for Victoria's Secret... but that's another story.

Paper Snow

I saw a post on how to make a 3D paper snowflake and I must try it!
This is my craft project for the weekend, among other things.

Retro Style

Mary Elizabeth Winstead.
She has been in a few horror films like The Ring Two and Final Destination 3 and also had a supporting role in Grindhouse. She has yet to carry a large film by herself, but she's doing quite well for herself.
Also, this has to be one of my favourite pictures so far. I'm crazy about polka dots and this swimsuit is littered in them! So cute!!

Glee

Love!

Seriously, this show is incredible. I can't stop talking about Glee, I can't stop singing the music from Glee, I can't stop living Glee!
I don't know what it is about this show that just captures my heart so much. I can't really relate to any of the characters, but the show is so quirky and fun it makes me wish I lived it.
The last episode (until April) is tomorrow night and Glee: Volume 2 just came out today so I thought I would honor the day with some photos of the cast courtesy of the LA Times.
The cast group hug

Cute Rachel, played by Lea Michele

Mercedes and Artie, played by Amber Riley and Kevin McHale.
This picture is funny because on the show Artie is in a wheelchair.

Delicious Puck, played by Mark Salling

The adorable Finn, played by Cory Monteith.

Adrien Brody.
I think the most attractive thing about him is his calm demeanor. While he's taken a back seat in Hollywood blockbusters for the past few years, I hope his beautiful eyes make a return to the big screen again soon.

Super Stache Saturday

Once again I am posting this a day late. But I'm making up for it by bringing you more then one fantastic moustache courtesy of The Village People.
These disco gents with feathery facial beavers are behind such popular hits as In The Navy, Macho Man and their most popular song YMCA.
While they're no longer making sweet sweet music together, their moustaches will always have a place in our hearts.

The stunningly beautiful Rachel Weisz.
This girl knows how to wear a long gown beautifully, and has the gams to pull off a short one. Wether her hair is long or short, brown or auburn, she knows how to coordinate accordingly. She is one stylish momma. Thanks Rachel :)

Alice Braga.
I remember her opposite Will Smith in the film I Am Legend. But can we just talk about how deliciously adorable those puppies are?? I want them all, right now, in my lap! Just to snorgle them for a few minutes. So cute!!!
The shoes are cute too.

Erick Thompson.
He is known in Victoria for being a newscaster. Not much more then that, but I think he's pretty handsome.
Gotta support the local talent ;)

Freddy Mercury.
A legend. And his moustache is just as legendary. Although it's hard to picture his moustache strutting the stage singing Bohemian Rhapsody. Then again... The Muppets just did it, so maybe it's not that hard to imagine.

Hayden Panettiere.
Most well known for a little show called Heroes. I loved some of the roles she was in when she was younger, Remember The Titans was definitely one of them.
While I'm not the biggest fan of her currently, but I definitely love this photo of Hayden. So cute in her little outfit and hairstyle.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
Seriously love this guy. He was just on SNL this past week and did a great job there. The last movie I saw of his was 500 Days Of Summer. Such a great movie. And the clothes he wears in that movie are what I want my future husband to wear on a constant basis. Actually, I want my future husband to be JGL in 500 Days Of Summer.

Billy Burke.
I promise, this is the last Twilight themed entry for a while. But Billy has such a great moustache, I wanted to honour it today.
I went to see New Moon the other night and found myself taken back by his cozy looking lip broom. It's quite impressive actually, more impressive when it's about 10 feet wide on the movie screen. Thanks for your dedication Billy.

Ashley Greene.
Since it's Twilight mania this week I thought I would feature someone who I think will have a career much past the Twilight phase. She makes smart choices in film and fashion. Always looking stylish even when going to doctors appointments, she isn't afraid to try something new (like a bright clutch with her evening wear). Love the green with the black. Looking forward to seeing more from her in the future.

Retro Style

Emily Blunt.
She's one of my favourite actresses, has the sweetest accent and is engaged to my #1 hottie John Krasinski. To say I want her life is an understatement.
She has found fame in movies like The Devil Wears Prada and Sunshine Cleaning. Plus she can wear the heck out of some red feathers and a retro up-do. And those heels are to die for!

Robert Pattinson.
This kid has a lot going for him these days. Not only is he the most coveted vampire in the world, a quick Google search of his name brought up 17,200,000 related searches.
I figured since New Moon is coming out this week it was only fitting that he be today's M.H.
While I haven't read the books, I was young once and can understand what the big deal is with this guy. I'm partial to the accent... not so much the eyebrows ;)
Happy Monday.

Bake Sale :) This was halfway through the day, and to start we had about triple the amount!

Okay, so technically today isn't Saturday but I just ran out of time yesterday and my moustachio'd guests are too great to wait another week.
It's actually me and my 2 wonderful friends Jen and Allegra. Since it's Movember (during the month of November, gents grow moustaches to show their support for prostate cancer) we had a bake sale! We can't grow moustaches so we had a moustache themed pastry sale with cookies, cupcakes and rice krispy squares. In total we raised just shy of $350. I was so impressed with our culinary (and sale) skills!
If you want to support our Movember team (Mo-Jangles) further please visit our website, linked here. All proceeds go towards finding a cure for prostate cancer.
Moustaches Forever!

Kate Winslet.
Beautiful, stunning Kate Winslet. She grew up right in front of our eyes. Starting out as Rose from the Titanic (with Leonardo DiCaprio), she's been breaking hearts ever since.
Especially around award season. No matter what, she always looks impeccable. I'd love to see this woman dress badly, I don't think she can.
Hope to see more from Kate very soon.

This gent from Sweden has such an imaginative way to look at things, it blows my mind. Take a browse through his website and you'll see what I mean.
