I wonder which movie’s gonna win the Academy Award for Best Makeup this year. Hmm… Seeing as Star Trek’s the only one of the three I’ve seen, I guess it gets my vote. 🙂
Do you go buck wild for awards shows? I do for the Oscars, and this year I was shocked to see a familiar face from Twilight among the list of nominees for Best Supporting Actress, the adorable Anna Kendrick, for Up in the Air (I STILL haven’t seen it but really want to).
The 24-year old stars opposite George Clooney in the film. I’ve been a fan of hers since 2007’s Rocket Science. Remember her in that? And homegirl’s been singing and acting in Broadway musicals since the age of 12, so she’s already got quite a resume, Oscar nod notwithstanding.
Anna’s going up against a few of my favorite actresses, though, namely Penelope Cruz and Maggie Gyllenhaal… I have no idea who’ll win, but I have a soft spot in my heart for young upstarts. Good luck, Anna! 🙂
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

I was surprised both at her being in Up in the Air and by how good that movie was. I expected it to be a fluffy, romantic movie but it was so much more than that.
I think Anna Kendrick might be prove to be the surprise success among the Twilight kiddies yet.
Karen says
I still have to watch it! I’ve been meaning to but never got around to doing it.
How’s your Saturday going so far?
Nina says
Saturday is going nicely — folded and made lunch.
Now were gearing to go walkin’ and to check out a first Saturday arts fest that goes on by our neighborhood … payin’ the crepe man a visit… 🙂
Have a great weekend!
Karen says
YUM! My weakness — NUTELLA CREPES!
We just got back from brunch… it’s sunny and kinda warm, so we ate outside on the sidewalk at a breakfast place. 🙂
Hope you got some sun today!
Nina says
I did get some sun … awesome Vitamin D!!!
Banana Nutella crepes made my day … 🙂

Number eight is very pretty! I want to see if I can do that!
marisol says
I like #5.
I saw the movie and thought she was great in it. Did you see her interview with Letterman when she was promoting the movie? She was great. You can look for it on YT.

I haven’t seen the Letterman interview yet… I’ll have to look for it.
How was your day off? Did you end up spending your Benefit certificate?

Five is super cute… I love the double headband action.
Sarahc says
I went with number 5 too. She looks straight out of the 50s in that do!
Karen says
Yes she does!
meimei says
Am I the only person who doesn’t like Anna’s hairline, and thinks she should try bangs? That said, I voted for #9 but like #8 and #6 too.

Scentsy woman says
I love her– she’s everything Amy Adams should be, in my opinion. I think she’s a versatile actress and her hairstyles prove that symbolically- I would like to respond to Meimei and say YES, straight bangs would be cute, but they’re a bit trendy right now, maybe she’s keeping her options open right now– they’d be cute on her though!
