An Afternoon Cup (after the Oscars)




And a happy night for most on The Red Carpet, last night...

Kudos for Ben Affleck's: Argo...nice to see Ang Lee get his Oscar for Directing Life of Pi...Adele was incredible belting out "Skyfall"...and with the possible exception of Anne Hathaway (...who always looks a bit thin...but toned...) most of the crowd had "human" proportions this year. Maybe anorexia is going out of vogue. Catherine Zeta-Jones and Charlize Theron both appeared looking marvelously toned and healthy. Beards seem to be in style this year...and George Clooney just gets better and better, doesn't he? Aging in that salt and pepper Sean Connery (dead sexy) style.And seriously...Jane Fonda (in Canary Yellow) seemed ageless. She is 72 and looks like she is 50!  Possibly making Blackwell's Worst Dressed list this year...Tim Burton and (wife) Helena Bonham Carter who both arrived looking more than a bit rumpled...and apparently they couldn't find a comb between them. Seriously...her hair could have held several families of baby mice, and possibly a spider or two...and his had that Mad Scientist thing happening...because, of course, he is Tim Burton.

Amazing Gowns of the night: Jennifer Lawrence, Jennifer Anniston and Charlize Theron.

Crown Jewels: Definitely Anne Hathaway. Did anyone see the diamonds on that girl!

So, up way-past-the-we-bitching hour for me...and this morning was a four cups of strong coffee and still somewhat slow event for me...

Well worth it...
