My goal is to make an effort to post more often on this blog. In my effort to do that very thing I am posting links to articles from the last week that look promising. ENJOY!!
Nigerian Fashion Week HIghlights
First Male Fashion Icon is Johnny Depp
Living in the Now
We only have the moment that we are in; Live ITI was sitting her going through the Fashions and remembered I had a place to share my opinions LOL
I have been MIA for a while so lets get started.

Whitney Cummings in a shiny Green Dress looks like a fancy trash bag being
held in place with a belt. Now if it were fitted it could be a nice look for her.
Nina Dobrev in Green is a different story. She has a fresh faced look and the
dress if flawless with the nude bag and shoes BRAVO!!
Lea Michelle in White Fringe is puzzling me.
She is beautiful but the dress is confusing because it doesn't lay down quite right.
Lucy Hale in a black mess of a dress. I look at this picture and I want to cut off the
extra material in the front to see the cute dress shining through. I don't know what
she was thinking as she looked in the mirror. Maybe she wanted something to
hold on to as a calming factor for nerves.
Alyson Hannigan looks so bubbly and friendly in the maternity dress. It's a nice
fit and just the right length.
Jennifer Morrison is sporting an intersting dress but its not the dress that is
strange. If she had her hair around her shoulder in waves it would work
better with the dress.
Vanessa Hudgens looks cute in a black webbed dress. It's kinda flirty and fun.
A good look for her age. However a fresh face would have made her
appear more youthful instead of like a middle age housewife. I almost did not
recognize her. I swear I thought she was Tila.
Busy Phillips in blue is another one who could have benefitted from long waves.
The dress is too "I am going to the Country Buffet" and not enough "lets go out and
celebrate" a great show. It just does NOT look special.
Kristen Bell in a cute little red dress with neutral shoes. This is one person who
might have been perfectly outfitted with her hair up, but I still like it.
Ginnifer Goodwin in a pink gypsy sleeve dress is a sight to behold. I don't think it
was the worse look but maybe she needed it to cheer herself up. She would have
benefited from a nude pair of shoes and purse to calm down the colors.
Colbie Smulders in a blue corset dress is cute. I do believe a more delicate
gold necklace would have made it perfect. I love Cobalt Blue !!
Miley Cyrus in a cute off white dress though I don't know what is going on at the
bottom at least she matched her shoes with it. :)
Ashley Greene was feeling a bit Saucy in her leather and lace which is a good
look for her. I approve.
Now for the last outfit worn by Kelly Osborne.
It's really a shame because she just seems so darn sweet.
The hair is heinous and the dress it just so wrong for her body type.
Well I hope you enjoyed my observations; I heard this is the first award show of the season so I will be around.
Thanks for reading.
Okay so I saw this picture and the first thing I noticed was that her hair was pinned back crooked. It was then that I saw the actual outfit but you know my problem isn't with the dress its the hair. Now if they had her in long ringlets around her face and down her back I think she could have made this red riding hood look work. Now am I just a glass half full person or do YOU see it too? Let me know........talk back :)
So I have seen some comic con costumes and I thought I would post links of the fashion and the fan styles aka costumes. Keep checking back for links.

I will continue to post pictures as I come across them to keep checking back. Have a Great Comic Con Weekend.
WoW the spring had flown by and I still cannot believe my favorite shows are off for the summer. It seems like yesterday I was complaining about how Supernatural Season 6 seemed to be going by so fast and now its over.
If I had to choose a favorite finale out of all of my shows I would choose supernatural because it was the most unexpected to me. I won't go into details because I know some of you still haven't seen it but "WOW". I just wonder where you can go from that point.
Yes I was one of those fans that at the start of Season 6 I shook my head and sighed thinking they might cancel the show half way through. Yes its true it wasn't so much the writing as it seemed to me like the End of Season 5 said it all.
I know how it feels to have promised to write a story to a certain point only to realize sooner than later that maybe there is not much more to be said and I felt like Supernatural had hit that point at the end of Season 5.
Now on the other hand, Vampire Diaries is a newer show; their options were wide open for the direction they could take their characters. I have gone back and forth over who should be with Elena and whether maybe that should not be the center point of the show. I am one of those fans that likes the action, the characters, the scenery and the dialogue but wishes often that there was just something deeper on shows like The Vampire Diaries. The entire of fighting over a woman seems trivial and high school in so many ways. I am not knocking the show so much as trying to illustrate how I can enjoy so many moments of something but then wonder about my own motives for watching. In reality it happens in every day life all the time. We take pains for so many material items then we get them and they just sit on a shelf. For example all the time I took to find a new fancy phone with features I have yet to use after a month it could be considered a waste of money. However, I believe that is just the way life is.
In conclusion, I do look forward to more of my faves: Gossip Girl, 90210, Supernatural, Vampire Diaries and even a few new shows like Secret Circle and Hart of Dixie.
Check out my NEW
Blog at www.randomrecaps.wordpress.com for recaps and or reviews on Summer Shows!
Finally it seems forever though its only been a month. I have no idea why the time went by fast for most things but not this. WE will finally see the long awaited Western episode. It has been a long time coming too. Jensen and Jared who are from Texas have wanted to do a western for what seems like years.
I can't wait. I hope to review it here afterward.
Sexy Formal Gowns by Jasz Couture

The above dress would have looked nice on someone. I know it doesn't cost much but it is beautiful.
I was looking through a list of the supposed best dressed for Oscars night and I decided to give my opinion on a few of them.
I am linking to a page where you can flip through some of the styles worn by stars.
Gwen Paltrow wore a very nice white/silver dress. It wasn't overly detailed but it fit just right. I give her a 4 out of 5 stars
Reese Witherspoon wore a tuxedo colored dress that was nice but her hair reminded me of a Southern Belle and didn't fit the style of her outfit so I would give her a 3 out of 5 stars.
Natalie Portman showed an off the shoulder purple affair that emphasized her bosom which is common for pregnant women it was nice. She seems to glow and is having fun being pregnant so I give her a 5 out of 5.
Matt Mac and his wife looked old school FAB in their matching outfits. They matched in color and mood. Classic elegance, 5 out of 5.
Mandy Moore looked school Marmish in her silver sparkly nude colored dress with her hair pull back severely. 1 out of 5 stars.
Michelle Williams looked as though she was in her jammies in a long dress with no visibly claim to being figure hugging. Her short hair made her look boyish. 1 out of 5 for that one.
I love Anne Hathaway but the puffy red dress was overly Valentines Day and costumy not elegant Oscar night. 2 out of 5 stars
Jennifer Hudson is the reason I had to write this post. When will women learn if your boobs are drooping either dont' show them or get a way to perk them up. Her orange dress needed more visible support in the bodice area because what was showing had horror movie written all over it. The color was nice and it had potential but didn't work for me, 1 out of 5 stars.
Halle Berry's Tulle /Sparkle dress was just blah to me. I guess the whole nude look its one she falls back on at award shows but despite the sparkle and ballerina effect I give it a 2 out of 5 stars.
Nicole Kidman was a classic beauty in white but the shape around her hips was very out of this world looking. It seemed to throw off the dress and she didn't seem all that comfortable in it. 2 out of 5 stars.
Hillary Swank's feathery looking grayish dress had potential but she needed some jewelry around her neck to accent it. 1 out of 5 stars for the look.
Salsa anyone? Marisa Tomei wants to dance. The beautiful Navy dress was a good look for her she seems to like odd ball looks. 3 out of 5.
Sandra Bullock's red dress was interesting; maybe it was made especially for her because it was nice and cheery as well as fit nicely around the bodice area. I give it 4 out of 5 stars.
Christian Bale's beard was distracting. I know a lot of guys have face hair different color than their head hair but it just seems there would be a way to fix that for an award show LOL.
Virgina Madsen's Black/White dress made her hips look massive. It could have been the way she was standing but the entire looks somehow seem to also age her. It was a great concept but maybe it was the material I am not sure but it failed for me. 2 out of 5 stars.
Busy Phillips who is so active on Twitter had a dress on that was wearing her. It was off the shoulder and fitted but too much detail at the bottom. It was trying to be a mermaid and something else but it is sad it was decided before she had to wear it last night. 2 out of 5 stars.
Sharon Stone's wore a nice long black dress. I do think that she may have needed a dress to make her look as though she weight more than ninety pounds. Her look was anorexic and scary. 4 out of 5 stars for the style
Scarlett Johansen dressed for a night out at the Chinese Restaurant. A nice burgundyish pink color but lack of emphasis on the bosom made her look matronly. Idid like the detail on the dress but a support bra was called for in this case also. Do women wear bras in California? Style 2 out of 5 stars Color 5 out of 5 stars
Celine Dion dressed in a white long dress with a nice vee neck and long sleeves. 5 outo f 5 stars it was elegant/classy and it looked as though she was confident wearing it.
Helena Bonham Carter was the usual car crash. She always seems to wear costumes instead of clothing that a person might like to wear to a high profile event. It was a velvet bodiced dress with shredded sleeves from what I could tell from the picture. 0 stars
Annette Bening and Warren Beatty were the perfect couple. They were dressed for a night at the Oscars in Classic formal wear. 5 out of 5 stars
Jacki Weaver, who is no one I have ever heard of. She was dressed in a dress too puffy for her and it made her look really short and compact. 1 out of 5 stars
Okay all of those thoughts came from that one photo link at the top. I just wanted to add my two cents about the fashions. It will be the talk tomorrow I am sure all the fashion critics will be on tv in full swing.
---------Turns out someone liked my post and wanted my opinion on two more looks--------
Mila Kunis overly feminine dress looked as though she was dressed by small birds. The blue was almost a paler version of the robin's egg blue and the delicate detail was somehow to me extreme. It was however old school elegance and for a celeb of her age it was a nice touch. 4 out of 5 stars though I admit I didn't expect this dress from Mila.
Jennifer Lawrence played it safe in a red dress that was essentially a floor length version of a tank top. It was a safe dress and worked for her superb figure though she could have pulled off a more detailed dress. Style 3 out of 5
This is a cute little video of Paul's first ever TV interview.

It's finally almost time for FRESH episodes of my new shows to be on the CW next week. Now this includes not only Vampire Diaries, Supernatural and Gossip Girl which is my guilty pleasure but 90210 and the Hellcats..........yes I have been sucked into the TWEEN ZONE on so many levels. I don't know how or why really except that because of my love for Supernatural I had begun to watch whatever was on the CW on different days. It's a mystery that is certain but admittedly the acting and the subject matter has kept my interest on all of them from the start. Oh well Life has many mysteries.

Candice Accola dishes on boys on the Vampire Diaries
It's a short article but I find that I have more respect for Caroline this season. She seems to have begun to become a presence to be dealt with on the show
and that is a good thing.
