Last night I had a few girlfriends over to watch the Oscars with some bubbly and popcorn. The attire was pajamas and pearls so we could be cozy on the couch while still feeling glamourous. After catching the red carpet pre-show and eating way too much popcorn, we filled out ballots that I made from cardboard and debated on who had the best dress—it was a toss up between Gwyneth Paltrow’s metallic column gown and Mila Kunis’ lacy lilac number. Nothing like a little Hollywood excitement to spice up a Sunday night.
