How to Wear a Dress as a Top

Happy Hump Day everyone.  Hope everyone is doing well.  We've been dealing with some seasons cold/sinus issues in our house lately.   My little dude has had a sinus cold for the past week+, and has had a steady daily flow running from his nose, and also post nasal drip giving him a very wet cough (TMI? ;) #momlife, LOL)  Then I was hit by something - maybe the same thing? - that had me out with a fever for day, and now I am having sinus issues and a sore throat.  'Tis the season, I guess.

It's Awards Season in Hollywood, and while some of us do care who actually wins awards, for many its all about the stars and the dresses they wear and the jewels they sparkle in.  Here's a look back on some of the most expensive jewelry worn on the red carpet.  We'll see if this list needs to be updated in a few weeks. ;)

When I was a kid, the channel AMC (now home to original programming like "The Walking Dead") was known for playing classic oldie movies (after all, "AMC" stands for American Movie Classics). Being the cinema lover that I was, I loved watching the old Katherine Hepburn and Jimmy Stewart and John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara films.  There's just something about those Hollywood golden years, and the beautiful, feminine style of the 40's and 50's.  I always loved the women in their dresses (although I didn't envy the girdles you know they were wearing underneath to get their trim little waists.)

A Dress for Any Occasion

So here we are, the first week of the new year.  I hope everyone had a fun and safe New Year's celebration this past weekend.  We were low key: had my sister-in-law and niece over on NYE, ordered some BBQ (and I made a from-scratch blueberry cobbler for dessert, which was mighty tasty, if I do say so myself), the kiddos played til their bedtime, then we adults watched a movie ("Antman", if you were curious. Wasn't bad, actually. I mean, it's a Marvel comic character, you can't expect serious art.)  We made it to midnight to ring in the new year, but I have to confess we were already in bed, and had the lights off by 12:01 am. ;)
