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!!!

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...

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 ;)
