The Chit Chat Chit Chat Thread

Last night, I watched all the Oscar fashions pre-shows (2 networks). The designs were gorgeous. (I didn't see any of the actual Oscars show, but I was glad to read this morning that a documentary I saw last year, Navalny, won an award.) Here are my top 2 faves (women):

Cara Delevingne -- (Elie Saab, designer) (Getty Images) (Vogue Magazine)


Angela Bassett -- (Moschino, designer) (Arturo Holmes, Getty Images, CNN)

Good luck to Brian! Hope he heals quickly. Congrats on the promotion! Tell him fingers crossed for the nursing test.

I love that one and Angela Bassett’s gown.

We're supposed to get snow Monday night into Tuesday morning. Might be 6 inches in my area, so that will be nice.

My area will be lucky to get 6 the way the storm is looking. The weather says 1 - 2.5 inches of rain plus 1 - 6 inches of snow. The wind too. Up to 50 mph. Someone tell the wind to stop.

Just think.. You could be California, not really sure how the roofs are not collapsing all over the place.

Reminds me of the buildings roofs at Epcot Norway Slave Church. Cast told me the reason why the roofs are on a steep slope is it is less chance of roof collapsing from a huge snowfall.

Okay y'all, you wanna hear how dumb I am?

So I had it in my head the clocks all change next week. Mine all change themselves automatically. My parents all change the oven clocks, etc.

So today, my mom says to me, "Oh, since the clocks changed..." I'm like, wait a sec, they did? I've been going about my business...not knowing that the clocks changed. I mean, I got up on time and all, but I've been tired today. That's why.

So yeah...me. Clueless that DST started.

Yes! This, and quite a few other gowns I really liked. I just didn't want to flood the forum with too many pix! Yet, I'm glad you shared this photo of Zuri Hall's gown (Tarik Ediz, designer).

Reason is, I was watching her and the 3 other hosts on "E" last night, but they were all sitting down -- so I could not get a full-length view of the gown. Love her long black gloves, too -- perfect accessory, completing the dramatic fashion look.

Tony, best wishes for successful shoulder surgery for Brian. (I hope it's nothing serious.) When he comes home, Kiley will make him feel better. Dogs have amazing healing tendencies, toward the people they love.

Good to hear about his promotion, and fingers crossed for his next exam.

It's also the one I'd want to make if I had somewhere to wear it. Just tops, a couple of sundresses and maybe a pair or 2 of shorts for this summer

I hope the surgery goes well and best of luck to him on his nursing test.

Carpageddon has begun as ice so now there's a layer of ice under the snow that's now falling. Please send rum

James is er um creative to say the least. Today he tried to pass off an anime video game as an education expense because he was able to download it in the original Japanese. Something about use it or lose it. I told him he could just translate a few cookbooks for me
