There Goes the Bride	[Cheap Chic Weddings]

Though I've never been to a bridal shower, I have seen my fair share of tv/movie scenes with the make-a-wedding-gown-out-of-tissue-paper bit and none of them have come close to looking as great as this gown made by Ann Kagawa Lee.

On the plus side, she won't have to scrounge for a tissue when she gets all teary-eyed at the wedding, but on the down side, she better pray for sunshine and cool winds, cause rain or sweat would leave her naked at the reception.

I'm really in awe at the craftsmanship and the attention to detail that Lee gave her wedding dress which was apparently part of a contest. She got a $1000 prize for her effort, but something tells me this dress is worth so much more. The other gowns are pretty crazy too. I wonder if she can dry clean this thing?

In yet another way fate is laughing at me for not living in New York right now, the reviews for Shakespeare in the Park's Twelfth Night have come out and they are liking Anne Hathaway's performance in it.

I'm happy she's doing well in it because I'm sure the pressure to do well in something as highly criticized as theater can be tough. But really, I just wish I were in New York right now to see her perform live. Anne + my favorite cross dressing story would have been mighty win. Alas, I'll have to settle for the reviews and photos. I can't even download this one. Boo. ( Read more... )

Good Morning Rachel	[Just Jared]

Reason number 2 for wanting to be in New York right now?! Rachel McAdams shooting Morning Glory in the freaking city. I swear I would kill to be there right now. As if the wait for Gossip Girl was too long, I have to wait till 2010 till this movie gets released! IMDB sums up the movie as: "a hotshot television producer is set the challenge of reviving a struggling morning show program, despite the constant feuding of its high-profile anchors."

Rachel I'm assuming is the producer and she stars alongisde the very much alive Jeff Goldblum and my erstwhile old-man-crush Harrison Ford. ( Read more... )
