Saturday Movie Review: To Rent or Not to Rent


This week I got "Hall Pass" from the library. The cast is outstanding with Owen Wilson, Jason Sudeikis, Christina Applegate and the lovable Jenna Fischer.

Best friends Rick (Wilson) and Fred (Sudeikis) act like married teenagers as they continuously check out other women. Their wives learn about granting husbands a "hall pass" from another wife in their circle. Rick gets his "hall pass" and is so excited he doesn't know what to do first. Granted Rick and his buddies have aged over the years and can't pick up the ladies like they think they used to. Fred acts out at home as well and is granted a "hall pass". The guys have one week of freedom to do whatever they want without questions from their wives and families. Turns out the grass isn't always greener on the other side and Fischer and Applegate have their own week off of fun as well. The humor is crude at times, but not as bad as I was expecting. My husband loved it and I approved as well. A good date night watch..Enjoy!

Celebrity Wedding

My man Nick Lachey got married Friday night to Vanessa Minnillo in the British Virgin Islands.

“Our wedding invitations were in the form of a plane ticket,” Nick says. “We told them they were going away and the attire was ‘island chic.’ It was all very vague.” What a unique idea, guess you need to have the big bucks for that =) They had about 35 guests at the wedding- very intimate!


Vanessa wore a two-piece Monique Lhuillier gown featuring an intricately embellished lace corset with rose and crystal detail, paired with a signature hand tufted skirt made of silk faille.
She had a tailored bow belt at her waist and chapel length tulle veil.

Nick was wearing a Dolce & Gabanna suit.

Remember you will get to see inside their wedding prep and wedding day on the TLC special called Nick & Vanessa's Dream Wedding premiering on July 30 from 9-11pm ET/PT. Guess Jessica Simpson will be able to see her ex's wedding now.


Congrats to Nick and Vanessa, even though I am secretly in love with Nick =) Enjoy!

Celebrity Wedding


Ugly Betty star America Ferrera married longtime love Ryan Piers Williams on Monday, June 27th. They wed outside in Chappaqua, New York at the home of Vanessa Williams. They had a more intimate wedding with family and friends, including Blake Lively!!

America wore the J'Adore dress by Amsale's Christos paired with Fred Leighton earrings. Her dress is gorgeous- so different, but I think it fits her perfectly- here is more dress photos from Christos Bridal.

They have been engaged since last summer, but first met when Williams cast Ferrera in his student film at the University of Southern California. Nice college sweethearts. Enjoy!

Saturday Movie Review: To Rent or Not to Rent


This week I got "No Strings Attached" starring Natalie Portman and Ashton Kutcher from the library.

This was a great comedy about life long friends who are not ready for a real relationship. Portman plays Emma and Kutcher plays Adam. Adam and Emma are friends from growing up and reconnect after college. They end up having sex one morning after Adam shows up at a friend of Emma's apartment (and Emma is a roommate). They make a pact to have a relationship strictly on sex and having no strings attached. It works at first, but then they each get jealous when the other starts going out with other people. It is a cute comedy and a must rent on my scale. It will have you laughing and remembering your dating days all over again.

It does have a happy ending and I will leave you at that. Enjoy!

Saturday Movie Review: To Read or Not to Read


I have mentioned before that I love REALITY TV, but what you might not know is that I LOVE BETHENNY FRANKEL. She is the best!!

I was on the hold list at the library for her new self help book " A Place of Yes" and it finally came in right before my vacation.

I was so happy to have time to read and was glued to the pages. Bethenny is a tell it like it is person and her book serves her well. Bethenny opens up and shares the obstacles she overcame and the great success she has enjoyed while discovering how to approach life from “A Place of Yes.”

You will learn so much about her and her family and how she became such a success by putting in extra effort on all projects in her life. She had many failed relationships, a rough childhood, and now she is in a happy place with Jason (OMG, her amazing husband), baby Bryn and her dog Cookie.

Bethenny developed ten rules for pursuing her goals and became a star. I highly suggest this one to be added to your library list. It might take some time, but worth the wait.

I would love to hear your thoughts is you already finished the book..Enjoy!
