McQueen does it Again!

Sarah Burton and her team have done it again...

I just die for this dress. It's perfect! I'm sure my fave, Rachel Zoe, assisted with the styling and securing of the dress for Annie! LOVE. xoxo CC

Burlesque

No, I'm not watching THAT movie tonight. I'm going to a Burlesque show. I'm actually super excited! What am I wearing...sequins of course!

Did you know the definition of Burlesque is a literary, dramatic or musical work intended to cause laughter by caricaturing the manner or spirit of serious works, or by ludicrous treatment of their subjects....Hmmm....I think my definition is a far cry from this one!

Anyway...I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend. I'll let you know my thoughts on tonight. Could get interesting... ;)

Coming to America!

Thank you Usmagazine.com for this lovely tribute to Will & Kate's trip to Canada and the US of A! So... every morning when I turn on the Today Show at the bright hour of 7am I always listen in to their top 3 stories of the day. I am usually just waking up and only half way tuning in. If one of the top 3 is about Will/Kate/or anything associated with the Royals, then I set that DVR all the way through Kathy Lee and Hoda!

For the next week or so, you know I'll be DVR'ing like seriously everyday, b/c Kate's fashion picks WILL make one of the top 3 stories!

This is beyond thrilling for me! I'm ready for some more Alexander McQueen...and I just know she is going to bring it!

I'll keep you updated...xoxo, Court (aspiring to be Kate) ;)

And I'm Back...

I do apologize for my absence for the past 2 months. I took a little bit of a break from blogging for all sorts of reasons and then I kept putting it off and putting it off again....until tonight!!! I've thought about this blog for a while and what I wanted to write about...and honestly nothing came to mind...so I just didn't write. Terrible reason, I know. However, for some reason tonight things just clicked. It's like the writer's block disappeared and all of the sudden the Carrie Bradshaw in me re-appeared. I hope to never take a 2 month break again...b/c I enjoy writing writing just as much as I'm sure most of you enjoy reading my nonsense.

So what have I been up to for the past 2 months...

Well, I have been going, going, going~

Step Class is my new vice. Hot pink lipstick is my new go-to color. I went on a river trip on the Guadalupe that had me laughing the entire trip...start to finish...just ask the girls I was riding with....EPIC! I have made new girlfriends and reunited with old ones that I LOVE! I have continued to handle accident claims. I have played co-ed sand volleyball and remembered how much fun it still is to play, just like the good ole hs days. I love Dirk Nowitzki. Lady Luscious turned 2 and we celebrated. I still have a daily radar for all things Duchess Kate including her fashion, styling, looks...OMG...seriously...she has impeccable taste. RZ premieres in one month...I. CAN'T. WAIT! LMFAO's Party Rock Anthem is my jam right now. I'm going to see Ri Ri in concert soon and can't wait for her to sing "Only Girl in the World". Domination and Magical are 2 of my new fav words thanks to my cuz! Summer Brew is magical! Neons are so in! Adele's album is still top for me! and last but not least, I love pool parties...I hope I can continue to attend and drink pina coladas until I'm 100 years old!
Love you all and I'll tty... like tomorrow ;) Peace

Real Life Princess

I am so excited about tomorrow morning when Kate Middleton will become a real life princess. Every girl's dream! I will be up at 3am watching every channel possible and taking it all in.

I can't wait to see which designer Kate chooses...Oh, the possibilities!

Good Workouts

So, I have good workout days and bad workout days. I'm sure some of you can relate. But my good workout days are always days where I have new tunes on my iPod...I'm serious. I guess the new music has a certain motivation factor because I have not listened to it 1000 times before! I can't listen to "slow" music when I'm working out b/c it's boring and causes me to think about how much longer I have left on the treadmill.

I have also discovered that a new workout outfit leads to a good workout day! Whatever it is that makes me have a good workout, I will most definitely try it because I seriously burn wayyyy more calories when that is the case.

Ok so here is my latest playlist (going from memory right now b/c the iPod is at home)...

Nicki Minaj featuring Drake - "Moment 4 Life"
Britney Spears - most of the new "Femme Fatale" album
Kid Cudi (Steve Aoki remix) - "Pursuit of Happiness"
Adele - "Rolling in the Deep"
Rihanna - "S&M", "Please Don't Stop the Music"
Katy Perry featuring Kanye - "E.T."
Usher - "More"
Florence & The Machine - "You've Got the Love"
Linkin Park - Several songs (added these after I went to their concert last month)
Brad Paisley - "Old Alabama" (not necessarily for workout out, but still fun)
The Black Keys - "Howlin' For You"
Jennifer Lopez - "Let's Get Loud" (old-school, I know), "On the Floor"

Hope you enjoy the sampling!

My Thoughts...

On Everything Fabulous of Course!!

Sorry that I have been absent for a little while, but when people have accidents on the road, I get super busy!

I thought I would take a couple minutes and share some of my thoughts with you.

DWTS:

As you all know, I am obsessed with Dancing With the Stars and this season is no different! I am glad that the Love Line guy got kicked off last night. I am sad to say that my girl Wendy Williams is not doing well and I don't see her lasting much longer. I think Hines Ward, Ralph Macchio, and Kirstie Alley are going to make it far. Not too keen on the new "Troupe" that they showcased last night but maybe I'll get used to them. I loved the costumes that Mark Ballas and Chelsea Kane had on and I honestly thought their routine was great. I can't wait for next week's show!

On a sidenote, Chris Brown is annoying; however, when his song "Forever" came on, I thought of the JK Wedding Entrance Dance that those people did for their wedding. That was about the only good thing that it reminded me of.

American Idol:

I LOVE every Wednesday and Thursday because of J Lo's outfits, shoes, makeup, hair...OMG...I love her styling and wish I could own everything she wears. Gorgeous. As far as contestants, I like Pia and Lauren.

Real Housewives:

Real Housewives of Miami was kind of a bomb-out. I have the finale on DVR and didn't get around to watching it last night. I do like Alexia and Marysol. And Marysol's mom, Elsa, Holy crap...she is CRAZY!

I am very happy that the Real Housewives of Orange County is back on. Tamra needs to tone it down with the bathtub scenes though. Real Housewives of New York comes back on April 7. I love the clip where Alex calls Sonja a "thug in a cocktail dress". Can't wait!!!!!!!!

Shatter nail polish:

Went by Nails Now the other day to buy a gift certificate and I saw a bottle of the black OPI with the shatter cap and I snatched it up like it was gold. Granted, it wasn't a "brand" new bottle, but I don't care. I plan to experiment with it this weekend!

The Britney Tour: (photo courtesy of britneyspears.com)

TOTALLY GOING. Rumors circulating today that Enrique is dropping out because he wanted to be a co-headliner...Hunny, not going to happen with Brit Brit.

The New Britney Album: Femme Fatale:

Bought it yesterday and jammed to it while I was working out! Loving it so far! Performance on GMA was not so hot but I'll forgive her!

Free People shorts:

Went by Cotton Island over the weekend and Miss Emily was wearing these and I have to have them! So freakin cute!

Last but not least, today is my Mom's Birthday! Happy Birthday!!!

It's Tradition!

4 years and counting! Every year (post college) we descend on Lower Greenville in Dallas to partake in the St. Patrick's Day celebration of drinking beer. Every year I feel a little bit older (and wiser), but this event does make me feel like I'm in college (which I LOVE)!!! We stayed for a couple hours and ran into some fabulous friends! We did leave on the earlier side and opted for a Bob Armstrong at Mattito's. All in all, a fantastic and beautiful day to drink a couple beers, get dressed up, and bump elbows with Dallas' finest...(joking, people)!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

xoxo Court

LP

We have been super busy the past two weeks, but we have gotten the chance to have a little fun here and there.
Last Wednesday we went to the Linkin Park concert at the AAC and it was Ah-mazing!!! Here are some fun pics -->

Nick and I enjoying the show!

Met up with some of my faves @ the Jack Daniels bar pre-show!

Finally, a couple weeks ago we celebrated my brother's birthday and here is one pic from Frankie's at the beginning of the night! We had a great time. Happy Birthday Dustin!

I'm "trying" to get lots of rest this week, since we will be traveling to Lower Greenville on Saturday afternoon for all of the St. Patty's Day festivities!!! I hope I can still hang...

WENDY WILLIAMS
KENDRA WILKINSON

& PETRA NEMCOVA

I think all three of these ladies are going to be fabulous to watch...especially Wendy!!! I'm sure I'll be blogging about the season! Yeah!

OSCARS Fashion Recap!

Good Morning Everyone! Last night was Hollywood's most glamorous night, and I must say, I was not disappointed...in the fashion that is. I was so excited about the hosts, but Anne and James just did not deliver. Anne looked amazing, but James looked like a Cheshire cat for the entire 3 hours. Anyway, let's get straight to who I LOVED and who bombed on the red carpet.

My top 2 best dressed: Halle Berry & Mila Kunis! So gorgeous!


















Hailee Steinfeld looked so age appropriate and so fashionable. Love the length of the dress and the high heels! Cute, Cute, Cute!
All of Anne's outfit changes were impressive, but I LOVED this red Valentino! I die!
Reese looks like a blonde bombshell. I love her!

Finally, Natalie Portman hits it right on with her dress. When you are pregnant, you should not be wearing ultra-tight dresses like the white one she most recently wore. Love the plum color!

So Jennifer Lawrence looked HOT last night. I think this was every guy's best dressed!

Hilary Swank's dress was fun with the feathers. Could have been tailored better up top, but I liked it nontheless.

I liked what Gwyneth was wearing, but in my opinion, she did not have a good singing performance.

I like this look on Sandra much better than what she wore (remember matronly looking) to the other awards shows this year. Good job!

Michelle Williams pixie haircut looks so perfect on her. The Chanel dress is pretty...maybe not my favorite, but I just love the hair and the makeup. Is she doing the Madonna thing and trying to take on an accent, b/c I swear in her interview with Ryan Seacrest, she was totally doing that! Weird.

Not working for me Marisa Tomei. She needs to get some spanx!

Scarlett's hair looked hot but everything else did not!

I think Nicole just has weird taste, and her stylist must too!

Melissa Leo...TERRIBLE...you were doing so well up til this point. Good job on the win, but just because a dress is made especially for you, if it is not pretty....don't wear it!

Poor Florence. Urban Outfitters should not be worn on the red carpet (I know it's not UO), this just washes her out. She has such potential...Ugh!

And finally, Cate Blanchett...I do NOT like this one bit. Her hair and makeup did look prettier than usual...but the dress is not happening! I know there were some fashion experts that loved this dress, but I am not a fan.

There were most certainly some exceptional looks last night! I'll be interested to see what Joan says on Fashion Police tonight. I'm sure she will destroy some of the celebrities!

I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend. xoxo Court

Full House

Guess who is coming to stay at our house for the next week...
Lexie & Riley!

Lady is beyond excited!

Plan to expect a full Oscars recap!! (If the puppies don't wear me out first!) Maybe the puppies will want to dress up for the red carpet ;) Don't say I won't do it! xoxo, Court

The "In" Crowd

We decided to celebrate Valentine's Day one day late because the restaurant we wanted to go to did not take reservations until February 15! Most days I really enjoy just going to work out after work, going by Super Target after that, and then finally watching all of my reality TV shows and cooking dinner at night.

However, sometimes I like to be with the "In" crowd. This crowd eats at all the new, one-word, ultra chic places in town, sips $15 martinis, wears platform high heels and super short mini skirts, has their extensions curled a-la Kardashian, and the "house music" is always loud. I do not go to these places every weekend or frequent them and spend my entire paycheck. BUT, I do like to go every once in a while, drink an expensive cocktail or two, dance to the music, wear my heels, and put on wayyyy too much makeup. Don't judge...

Anyway, so last night the boyfriend and I went to ALMA. Yes, it is a one-word restaurant. This is the new restaurant that has taken the place of my all time favorite Cuba Libre. Cuba Libre was first introduced to me by my friend who is always in the know, Lacey. I remember that first mojito like OMG...it was pure amazing-ness in a cocktail. So began my love affair with Cuba Libre. It temporarily closed b/c the owner wanted a new "concept"....paaalllleeeeeaaassseee!

We did enjoy Alma a lot and will go back for another special occassion! A little pricey, but it was fun to try a new ultra-chic place and go "out out" as we like to call it. I hope you all had a wonderful Valentine's Day!!! I am definitely looking forward to my next "in crowd" outing!

Finally, on another note...today is my best friend Becca's Birthday! Happy Birthday Bec! Love you! (had to pull out one from the archive ;)
