we should be best friends

I started writing this post a month ago, but life is super busy these days and I never got around to finishing it until now. I have to say it for the world to hear though, Jennifer Lawrence is my latest girl crush. Yes, I get girl crushes, quit judging. Seriously though, how cute is she!?! Not just looks wise (though she is hottie), but her personality. Every interview I see of her makes me love her more and more, and how cute was she at the Oscars falling down!?! I'm pretty certain that if we ever met we would be instant best friends...either that or she would get a restraining order on me.

 

Seriously don't you just want to eat her up! She's such a dollface! Well that's all I have to say about that.

First off, themed parties are awesome!!

My friend threw a 1920's party this last weekend, and it made me realize that I have outfits for the 40's, 50's, 70's, & 80's, but nothing really for the 20's.

So sad.

My goal is to find an awesome 1920's dress that I can wear whenever I want (not just for parties). 

Something like this one below found here:

 Despite not having the perfect dress I still think I pulled it off...mostly.

(Sorry all the pics are from my iPhone. I didn't want to bring my big ol' camera to the party)

 How cute is my bf Alex!

 

 

The tasty chocolate mustaches were my fav!

 

Also, I love that I finally found an occasion to wear the hair accessory from my wedding!

  

I got a pic of all the ladies together below but didn't get one of the boys....well besides the two above. Also, I only know 2 girls in this photo, but it looks more impressive when you see us as a whole all dressed up.

 The next Gatsby/Artist party you will see me in an amazing dress!

Ps- I cannot wait for the new Great Gatsby to come out! I'm dying to see it!

Sundance 2013

We had another successful Sundance movie going experience again this year!
To see the goodness from the last two years go here and here.
Here's what went down this year:

The Summit

This was an awesome documentary about the most dangerous mountain on earth, K2, and what happened when 11 climbers died on an expedition in 2008. Just to give you an idea of how crazy K2 is, 1 out of 4 climbers who try to peak that mountain die...yeah, not good odds!

Pemba Gyalje, a Sherpa from Nepal pictured below with my hubs, spent over 90 hours in the deathzone trying to save lives! It's called the deathzone for a reason...you do NOT want to be there for too long. He was so humble and nice!

The hubs has talked about climbing Everest for years, but after seeing this documentary I think I will have to squash that dream. I know it's a different mountain, but I could not handle having him in danger like this!

Sightseers

This film had a Hot Fuzz feel to me (which I guess this director is friends with Edgar Wright so I shouldn't be too surprised). I don't want to give anything away, but it's funny and dark and awesome.

Hell Baby

Nothing but LOVE for this film!! Comic gold! I think the Q&A afterwards with all the funny cast was my favorite part. Plus we got to see Sam Rockwell at the film since his girlfriend Leslie Bibb was in it. Scott has a major man crush on that man and was trying to stalk him to take a pic....yeah he was being creepy.

 

The hubs was major fan boying! Haha!

Sam Rockwell!!

Magic Magic

Meh. I couldn't wait for this film to end, which is not a good sign, but it did have an interesting take on a girls journey down to crazy town. The best part was one of my girl crushes, Emily Browning, was in the film. She's so pretty!!

Look who it is!! It's the boy from Sky High!! I had to get a pic with him cause I love that movie! Haha!

No, my huge grin isn't cheesy & starstruck at all.

In Fear

This was a scary film and the last Sundance film I went to. What was cool about it is the director didn't give the cast the whole script so they were really being scared during the film! I think that's awesome!

Two thumbs up for Sundance this year!
