On feeling gross ... and then not so gross

Yesterday was one of those days where I just felt horrible about myself. You know those days where you throw something on that looks somewhat respectable, slap some makeup on, and tie your hair back in a messy bun? Now most days, I would be quite fine with the minimal effort I had put in but yesterday whenever I passed a mirror I felt frumpy and ugly. My hair was giving me the shits - unstraightened with little curly bits popping up (and out) everywhere, not to mention the FRIZZ.

I didn't fancy feeling that way today so put the effort in (still not much effort) to at least be somewhat happy with my reflection in the mirror. And I feel 500% better for it. I am forever indebted to the inventor of the GHD. What a genius that person was.

This dress would have to have had the most wears of any dress in my wardrobe. It's a blue juice number I picked up at Myer on sale for a specific occasion and thankfully has served me for many more specific and not-at-all specific outings.

It's nearly the weekend - hooray!

Crushing On and Needs to be Crushed

Just checking out the Oscars fashion on this dreary day at work. This is not my regular sort of post but thought I'd share my HOT and NOT pics.
HOT.

Amy Adams - stunning.

Naomi Watts - i love me a sequin frock

Not usually a fan of the split but Jennifer Hudson looks amazing!

Charlize Theron - simple elegance. 

Georgina Chapman - knows how to rock a bump (Marchesa - need I say more?)


NOT.

Jennifer Aniston - I am just not a fan of the fabric and i'm not sure red suits her

Anne Hathaway - I just find this boring. Anyone else?

no comment required - I guess it may be traditional but still. 

Helen Hunt - ever heard of an iron?

all pics sourced from hereand here

Who were your picks?
