Oscar Fashions Pt 3

by Sherri Browning Erwin

Charlize Theron is usually on my best dressed list, and she would be again (great color!) if only it didn’t look like her dress was attacking her boobs. Here’s Meryl. What do you think? I’m still thinking meh. She looks good, but not amazing, for me anyway. It’s not a wild misstep, I’ll give her [...]

More Oscar Fashion!

by Sherri Browning Erwin

This is exciting! I’m live-blogging the red carpet. Colin Firth is right this second talking to Ryan Seacrest. With his lovely wife. Awww. Meanwhile, George Clooney is running around looking impish. His hair is doing a not-quite-Clooney thing tonight. Interesting. But here we are with more fashion: Miley Cyrus looks tarty and too grown up. [...]

Oscars 2010- Early Pictures!

by Sherri Browning Erwin

Sandra Bullock looks amazing and I hope she wins. But I don’t have a picture of her yet. I do have: Sigourney Weaver. Looking good, even though she blends in with the red carpet in the pic. Vera Farmiga also opted for color. It looks weird in the photo, but I really loved it on [...]

Question of the Week: What’s on Your Spring Cleaning List?

by Julia London

Just like that, the skies turned blue, birds started chirping, and the temperature finally climbed into the sixties and seventies.  It’s spring!  And every spring, I start looking at my closet of sweaters and furry house shoes and dude, I have some serious closet cleaning that needs to be done. What is that?  Is it [...]

Fashion Friday: It’s all in the Shoe!

by Dee Davis

I grew up with a mother who loved shoes.  All her boxes were lovingly stacked in the closet and each time she’d pull one out I’d hold my breath waiting to see the unveiled glory of her day’s choice.   She has a size 6 triple A foot so quite honestly all shoes look marvelous on [...]

Writer’s Corner: Transitions (Classic Kath)

by Sherri Browning Erwin

(from Kathleen Givens on 6/30/09) We’ve been talking a lot about death far too much lately, all of us. Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, Ed McMahon, Billy Mays, have all captured the news media attention, and we, willing or not, have had to think about the final check out. I was already weary of it all, [...]

Whiny Wednesday: Life’s Not Fair!

by Sherri Browning Erwin

This week, the Today Show is hosting reunions of casts from past TV shows. Tuesday’s reunion? The Partridge Family! Watching David Cassidy (Keith), Danny Bonaduce (Danny), Brian Forster (Chris #2) and Suzanne Crough (Tracy) laugh at Matt Lauer’s request to sing Come On Get Happy reminds me of a childhood dream. I wanted to be [...]

The Happiest of Birthdays if you want to hear a rhyme….

by Kathleen O'Reilly

“I heard them say that today’s the day, What day, you say? Seuss’s Birthday!” “Okay, I ponder, but why should I care, why should I bother? A birthday’s not rare.” “But he’s the great Dr. Seuss, the cleverest of all, more witty than Franklin, more funny than Ball!” “So you tell me, but I do [...]

POP CULTURE MONDAY–HOW ENGAGING!

by Jacquie D'Alessandro

Pop culture has recently been inundated with a spate of celebrity engagements.  Among those preparing to walk down the aisle are country singer Carrie Underwood and her hockey honey Mike Fisher.    Aren’t they a gorgeous couple?  I’ve loved her ever since American Idol–so talented and she seems like a lovely young woman.   Also engaged [...]
