Emmy's

Jimmy Fallon, I thought, was amazing. I have a super crush on him... and last night made me like him so much more.
Here are my favorite looks from last night. Surprisingly, all my favs were basically the Glee kids. BTW, what diet did Lea Michele ("Rachel") do? She is so very tiny now.

Lara Spencer kind of brought the Grace Kelly thing... which I love.

These dresses are so similiar, but I really do like them both.

Have to include Puck, cause how can you not?

AND THE WORST DRESS I THOUGHT WAS....




Steph Pratt forgot her pants. This dress seemed more appropriate for a club and not a red carpet awards show. She does have amazing legs though, so I guess, if I had pegs like that maybe I would keep my pants off too.

Back onto Boots.

In less serious topics...I am still on my boot mission and I think I may have finally found a pair of motorcycle boots. In all the places I have looked, JCrew had a pair that I really liked and weren't too too too bad. They need to be worn a bit to get that vintagey look, but ta-da, here they are. Now, I just need a hot Harley man to take me for a ride. I haven't bought these yet, but I think they will be mine by Labor Day.
I am trying to be a little more thoughtful about some of my spending habits, so I am trying not to impulse buy based on my mood (and yesterday it was just ick), but based on if I really really like them. Typically, I buy cause I think I "LOVE" them, but in a week or so, I am all set and they go to die in the back of my closet, under my bed or in some big plastic storage container.





Here are some other cute options....if you are in the market too (all seen at JCrew).

These little mocs are much cuter in person...I had a pair from Nine West last year that fell apart, because I wore them way too much.

MB for Skinnier legs. I don't think my calves will fit into them.

When others move on and you just can't....

I got a hole in me now

I got a scar I can talk about

She keeps a picture of me

In her apartment in the city

Some things in this world

They don't make sense

Some things you don't need

Until they leave you

And they're things that you miss

Matchbox 20

Years ago I was in this amazing relationship with the perfect guy. He was beyond everything I would want in a husband now, not then. I was immature. I wanted that greener grass on the other side of the fence. When he moved me from our house in the burbs to my little apartment in the city and after years of trying to convince him to move closer to the city, we finally ended it. We hung out here and there and one day this song came on and he quoted "I got a scar I can talk about" too. He did and so did I. Well, now I do or have for the last few years when I realized that he was the one who got away. He got engaged and I found out a few weeks ago. I dreaded this day.... and when I found out I was not upset, just very sad and very very disappointed. The other night I had a dream about him again (which I do often), and he was telling me that it was ok and that he still loved me. I am not feeling that I should go after him now or stand up at his wedding (kidding), but I feel he is making a big mistake. I want him to still love me and that ring, originally, I feel was/is mine. Additionally, I feel that he is amazing and deserves someone equally amazing (and I don't think she is). I want the best for him, and maybe that it isn't me, but he can do so much better.

Burrr.... Boston has a hit a cold spell and today it is 60 degrees. Fun morning of trying to dig out a sweater. A secret part of me is looking forward to some cooler temps because I really miss wearing boots and tights.

Beach Vacation

I have been a little absent from blogging cause I have been on vacation trying to enjoy the 3Bs before the weather changes for good (3bs = books, beaches and booze). I read tons of magazines too - Love September mags with all the fashion... I am particularly in love with this Michael Kors look for fall. (I actually found it in 3 different mags and easily online).

Also, I watched the last episode of the Jersey Housewife disaster show. I am glad it was the last one and really hope it doesn't renew...My brain can't take anymore of the nonsense and my eyes and stomach can't tolerate that awful Danielle Staub cast member. I wonder, sometimes, with these shows if they [Danielle etc.] are truly horrified on how they come out on it or if they are so addicted to the fame of it, they don't care.... Her poor children.

OVO

Tonight I am going to see OVO, Cirque Du Soleil. I have been dying to see a Cirque show for years and always encourage people to go see a show when they go to Vegas so they can tell me all about it. I just find it all so amazing and entertaining. I have heard great things about OVO, so hopefully it will be worth it to go!




Random thoughts about TV shows... has anyone seen Teen Mom on MtV? I have kind of been secretly addicted to it since it came on (back when they were prego). I am not trying to disparage them because I know it is tough (I am a product of a 16 year old mom too), but why do they all have fake nails and fake tans? If they are so hard up, you think they would chop off those acrylics and maybe lay outside in the sun instead???

Also, as I said before I really like the Rachel Zoe Project, but I think because I liked Taylor the most. She made me laugh cause she was so bitchy. I loved her style and hair too. Now that she is gone, it is kind of a snooze. I also think RZ and Brad could possibly be the two most annoying people in the world when they speak. Additionally, I don't understand why they keep bad mouthing Taylor on the show... It is like they know they are boring, so they need to bring the drama. It just makes them look bad, by making her look bad.

Is anyone else watching this nonsense? Thoughts?

Friday night Recap

Dear Comcast Center,

I am leaving you. It is all you and not me.

Later,
KAH
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

On Friday night we headed down for the JM show at the Comcast Center. First, I am not sure why the hell JM would want to do a show in the middle of nowhere on a Friday night in the summer. For the people who don't live around here, the major dilemma is traffic. Tons of it. Everyone gets out of dodge and heads down to the Cape or home, but anyway, it is rush hoursssss on a Friday night (= not good at all). I already knew this going into it as I have been to many shows there, but still thought it was worth it. To prep for the show we thought renting an Escalade would be the best idea. We all hopped in for our long ride and headed out of town. After our many hours in the car and many beverages we made it. After we parked we had one more beverage and headed in. Since John was starting and we didn't want to miss anything, we kind of sprinted to the gate - laughing at what idiots us 30 somethings were to be in such a rush, we pulled out our tickets to go through the turn style and there I was greeted by a large man saying that I was drunk (kinda true) and would need to leave or take a field sobriety test. Huh? I wasn't driving and I wasn't out of control. I was like pffft - no worries, I can take the test and go into the show. I took the tests and basically failed both. So now your options are to call your parents (ha - I don't think they thought I was in my 30's or they will take you to jail and you can be BAILED out or wait to till you sober up). Again, huh? Thank god, my friend is smart enough to talk them out of it ... and I got to go in the show after missing two songs... So I guess after all that drama and money spent, I rather see shows in Boston where the cops have so much other real problems to deal with the last thing they care about is a mildly drunk fan going to see a concert. So, John Mayer, if you are by some crazy way reading this....Don't play there anymore or I can't come see you. Promise.

John Mayer & Train Tonight

Yes, I am going again. This is my umpteenth time that I have seen. I can't help it... for some weird reason I love him.


Earlier conversation about show...

Me: I am going to leave work early today so I can get to Comcast Center for a concert.
Other: Who is playing?
Me: John Mayer, I love him. {smirk}
Other: {Dirty Look}
Me: I know, I love douche bags... maybe that is my problem in life???? You would think I would learn by now!
Other: {Points to Nose}. Umm. yea.

Oh well, to me and the DB's I love and have loved.... Everyone have a wonderful weekend!

Half of my heart's got a real good imagination

Half of my heart's got you

Half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you

That half of my heart won't do

The Bachelorette - Don't Read if You Haven't Seen it Yet.

Classy, huh? I just found this on-line. Apparently, Snookie/Snickers got hammered and ended up in the drunk tank in NJ. Fun times, I bet.

Did you all watch the Bachelorette? Did you like the ending? I kind of did. I always wondered if the Bachelor/Bacherlotte knew all along who they wanted to end up with. If I got the chance I would start 86'ing people early, so I could have all those fun trip/adventures just with the one guy, since it would probably be painful to hang with some of those duds.

Since the beginning of the season I was a huge fan of Chris and was really hoping she would pick him. Last night, however, he just got on my nerves... He was like that needy guy that falls in love and just keeps saying it over and over to the point it gets embarrassing. I wanted to scream STOP TALKING. Anyway, when I saw Chris on After the Rose, I thought, hot damn, if he is the next Bachelor, I may have to try out... I could totally work the Boston - Cape connection.
