Sea Opal Glass
Sea opal glass is a manmade “stone” that has a pretty, soft
opalescense. It is a pale blue that reflects pastel colors when light hits it certain ways.
This sweet bracelet is available at Miss Val’s Creations.
Golden Globes 2013 Fashion
It is awards season again so of course I need to show off
some gorgeous dresses as well as some interesting ones. I love going through
the Yahoo report card to see what I agree with and disagree with each awards
show and the following are pulled from there.
I will start with interesting. Now I love Lucy Lui (been a
fan since Ally McBeal). I actually love the dress too and Carolina Herrera.
However the print is a little wild for the red carpet!

What I love about Helena Bonham Carter aside from her quirky
movie roles is her sense of fashion. Always a bit off beat! How great is her
red lips clutch?

Here is one of the most talked about of the evening. This is
Katherine McPhee in a serious plunger! The dress is a bit boring but she does
rock it!

| Katherine McPhee in Theyskens' Theory |
This dress on Kaley Cuoco was a favorite of mine although
the Yahoo police gave her a D rating! I will admit the hair and makeup is not
working for her. If Halle Berry was wearing this one it would have been rated
an A, Right?

This dress on Julianne Hough is just a stunner!

I thought Sofia Vergara’s gown was amazing with its
detailing and crazy shine! This photo does not do it justice but when she was walking she was sparkling!

Nicole Kidman looked classy and beautiful as always. I love
the mid section of this gown.

As a Gleek, I am
throwing in Lea Michele just because. This gown is so elegant.

The dresses are always my favorite part of awards shows! Julianne Hough's dress is just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteSofia Vergara's dress...WOW! Wish I had the dress and the body!
ReplyDeleteLove your bracelet! So soft and beautiful. I am always intrigued by that particular bead and pick them up and put them down a hundred times when I am at a bead store or show. I never know what to do with them. But you sure did :-)
Hi Val, the bracelet you are showing is gorgeous. The dresses are the best part of these shows. Kind of like the superbowl....the best part is often the commercials. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a great week.

PS....I'm so addicted to Pinterest that now, when Chris and I are watching a tv show I'm not particularly interested in, I sit there with my ipad pinning things. You've created a monster.
Hehe! There is something very addictive about Pinterest!
Deletethanks for the name of that glass! I have a few beads like that - but didn't know what it was called. And as I recall, when you and I started following each other last year ... it was right about this time chatting it up about all the glamorous gowns! enjoy the award season my friend :)
ReplyDeleteLove Kaley Cuoco's dress!
ReplyDeleteHava a lovely week!
I love that red lips clutch, Sofia Vergara looks gorgeous but If you had me pick one to wear I'd wear that last one :)
ReplyDeleteLove the color and glow of your opalescent beads!
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'm old fashioned but I thought Lucy Lui's gown was the prettiest I've seen in a long time. Very feminine.
The red carpets are fun for jewelry watching.
those stone looks super pretty~ i love how translucent it looks
