ART: Love it. Live it.

Dear Chelsi, I'm updating just for you.


I love the ARTS. I love music, photography, performing arts, films, literature, and a very select few visual arts (Abstract art is NOT my favorite. I just don't understand it.). Photography is under the visual arts category normally, but I like to think of it in its own little category.

This week I was able to attend the awesome Sketch to Screen: The Art of Hollywood Costume Design at the Oklahoma City Museum of Art. This was probably one of my favorite exhibits that have come to the Oklahoma City Museum. There were so many different costumes from the early 1920's to present day worn by some of Hollywoods brightest stars, including...

The beautiful and talented Audrey Hepburn. This costume is from Funny Face and was featured at the exhibit. 















 Original costumes from the Super Man himself. 



















My all time favorite costume shown at the museum was from the 1986 film Three Amigos. Steve Martin's costume was the only one on stand. 

   

Like I said above there were so many awesome costumes at the OKCMOA, I would encourage all of you to visit it before they are all gone, which is August 15th, 2010. I would also encourage you to support the OKCMOA by visiting often or even becoming a member. 


Pictures from the day at the museum:


Have a great week, go get your Art on!

Ten Guilty Pleasures

and they are...

10. Sleeping in on the weekends or until 9- Considering I wake at 7 throughout the week, 9 is pretty great.

9. One Hit Wonders- Ice Ice Baby! 

8. Listening to Plain White T's- 1,2,3,4 has been played 486 times on my itunes. 

7. Using Wikipedia to research towns with cool names- Manchester, New Hampshire could possibly be my future place of residence. 

6. Playing Sudoku- Personal record 4mins 32 secs.  

5. Driving with windows down and music loud- Don't worry, I'm not one of those annoying people blasting rap, mostly just John Mayer.  

4. Drinking Cranberry flavored water from Sonic- Replacing my soda craves.

3. Watching House Hunters- I really just want to buy a house after every episode. 

2. Strawberries and powder sugar. Sometimes for dinner and I don't mind the itchy throat after. 

1. Comedic Movies- Grown Ups, Office Space, and Planes, Trains and Automobiles.

What NOT to do...

As young women we are taught so many things.

How to dress...


How to sit...


How to flirt without being skanky. Yes, I said it!


How to be more like June Cleaver



and less like Roseanne Conner.



These are things we are taught to do and the proper way to do them.

 I have a list of things, in my opinion we (women) should not do, and are consider impolite, and/or dirty to most. I could probably write for hours about those things, but I won't. Instead, I will share with you my top two dirtiest things women should not do. 


SMOKE!




CUSS!




Seriously girls, find a new habit.

A weekend in pictures.


For the last 7 or so years I have spent my 4th of July weekend at Camp Lu-Jo , this year I was able to spend the weekend with my dear friend Daleena and her wonderful family. Below are pictures from the 4th of July weekend.

A rainy Independence day in Oklahoma, USA.

 Shelter in the time of a storm?



Riding Rhino the over-sized four wheeler. So much fun!
 July 4th Baseball game that was postponed. Totally worth sitting and chatting with Leslie though. 


All Firework pictures were taken in Edmond at their annual Libertyfest Show.


















I hope you all enjoyed your holiday weekend!
