Best Dressed: Cate Blanchett in Givenchy Couture
There was a chill in the air in Los Angeles this afternoon but it didn’t stop Hollywood’s leading ladies from glamming it up in beautiful dresses, jewels and shoes. They hit the red carpet in style and there were several best dressed nominees. Gold was definitely the color of the evening with dresses embellished with tulle, feathers and jewels.
Mila Kunis looked lovely in lavender and Gwyneth Paltrow was stunning in a liquid gold Calvin Klein sheath. Halle Berry was gorgeous in Marchesa and I’m sure she will grace the pages of every best dressed layout, but I really loved Cate Blanchett’s Givenchy Couture gown. It was beautiful and intricate in the front but the back was a complete surprise and extremely unique. Reese Witherspoon had the best updo (I’m thinking it might be a possible bridal portrait style.) of the evening and she looked great in Armani Prive. I also loved the simplicity of Jennifer Lawrence in Calvin Klein and Michelle Williams in Chanel.
It was an evening of style and grace and I think my vote for best dressed at the 83rd Annual Academy Awards is Cate Blanchett. But enough about fashion, now it’s time to pop some popcorn, cuddle up with Madeline and find out who will take home the award for best picture!

Soma Intimates is my go-to store for bras, panties and pj’s and I am completely obsessed with the Cool Nights Collection. From the vanishing back fat bra to the loungewear, you can always find something comfortable yet practical. It’s easy to get lost in the soft fabrics and colorful prints, but for some women, they would be happy to just receive a bra. Any bra.
Did you know that a bra is one of the least donated but most needed items for women who are homeless or victims of domestic violence? I did not know this, but after thinking about it, it makes sense. When donating clothes, you often times don’t think to donate your lingerie because you think – why would somebody want my bra? Well, Soma has taken it upon themselves to help these women in need but they need our help! They are asking women to donate new or gently used bras and they will be then sent to Dress for Success and Bra Recyclers.
You better act fast! This initiative is over on Monday, February 14, 2011. Clean out your closet this weekend and head to your neighborhood Soma boutique with those bras you find in the bottom of your drawer. Don’t forget, what’s in the bottom of one woman’s dresser might just be another woman’s treasure!

How many bras do you have in your closet? Now, how many of them do you actually wear?
