And the award goes to...
Last night was the Super Bowl/World Series/Olympics/Nobel Prize of the fashion world: The Oscars.
The good, the bad, and the ugly were out in full force in Hollywood.
Here’s your re-cap:
The Good:
Gwyneth Paltrow in a white Tom Ford caped dress.
Michelle Williams in Louis Vuitton. The only change I would make would be to give this dress a sweetheart neckline. Otherwise, stunning.

When I get stressed, I turn into overdrive mode. I spend 10 hours a day in lab, knocking out more work in a day than I usually do in a week. Instead of sleeping, I’ll scrub my oven until it sparkles. I’ll make shopping lists and to-do lists and bucket lists and lists of the lists that I haven’t made yet.
In the past 48 hours, I’ve spent about 24 of them in my lab. Instead...

I’ve really fallen for the Bunny Dee etsy shop.
It’s whimsical and retro and adorable.

Paper chase.
I have never once lived in a house with wallpaper.
My mother never liked it, so my childhood homes were paint-only (granted, the colors sometimes got crazy). My college dorms were white-washed cinderblocks. My current apartment is a little rental place where my landlords would steal my kidneys should I dare to mess with the walls.
I know most people think of wallpaper as old-fashioned and...

Fashion Week 2012: The good, the bad, and the WTF
The Good:
- My favorite piece of the week was this Naeem Kahn A-line Tea-length dress. Absolutely beautiful.
- Lots of black and white paired separates. My favorite was this DKNY ensemble.
- I love the skinny dress. Kate Winslet wore a beautiful one at a premier this past year (although I can’t for the life of me find it— I think it was red?). Stella debuted them last year, and...

Saggy.
Was anyone else as utterly disappointed with the SAG awards as I was last night?
I always get so excited when awards season starts and, frankly, the fashion at the Golden Globes killed it! There was good, there was bad, there was actress wearing a chinese paper lantern! It was utterly fabulous!
Maybe everyone felt bad that Joan Rivers made fun of their black bike shorts underneath white lace...

In 1933, F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote his daughter a letter. It’s quite lovely. The transcript follows.
“Things to worry about: Worry about courage Worry about cleanliness Worry about efficiency Worry about horsemanship Things not to worry about: Don’t worry about popular opinion Don’t worry about dolls Don’t worry about the past Don’t worry about the future Don’t worry about growing...

In a totally perfect world, this guy would be showering me with Valentines presents and lovin’. But life’s not fair blah blah blah and so this year I’ll be spending the V.D. snuggling with a bottle of wine and a box of chocolates alone on the couch with my cat.
Get to the point, Jen.
Ok, here goes.
If I were to buy myself some awesome Valentine’s Day presents (which I...

My dear friend Dan will be running a half marathon to raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma society this March. He’s been doing a kick-ass job running lately, even through this super chilly winter. It would be great if you could help him reach his goal of raising $1000!
Here’s what Dan has to say about it:
“Please help support me and the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society as I...
