Woman of Style: Gal Gadot

2 Comments

I have always loved Wonder Woman, especially when Lynda Carter portrayed her back the mid-to-late 1970s. This generation will get to know Gal Gadot as Diana Prince, a.k.a. Wonder Woman. Not only does she have beauty and grace, but she has wonderful style. This is why she is this month’s “Woman of Style.” A few weeks ago, I watched Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and was struck by Gal Gadot’s beauty. I knew I had seen her somewhere before, and then it hit me. She is the stunning Gisele in Fast & Furious. This Israeli beauty has modelesque looks, but she […]

Johnny Depp – A Truly Versatile Actor

No Comments

“When I see someone who just follows their dream and succeeds, and just does basically what they want to do and doesn’t have to answer to anyone, obviously not harming anyone, that’s great.” – Johnny Depp According to my husband, Johnny Depp is one of the greatest actors – if not the greatest actor of our time. And this is one time in which I have to agree with my husband. Not only is he a great actor, but he is also my “Man of Style” for December. Depp has played a wide array of characters, from Sam in Benny and Joon […]

That’s why I would want to invite all of the main characters over for a holiday dinner party. You might not recognize this movie as a “holiday movie”, but it is. These intertwined stories take place during the month of December in London. If you’re not familiar with this movie, you must watch it immediately! You will fall in love with it! Even though this movie came […]

Fabulous and Over 40

4 Comments

Now that I’m in my 40s, I tend to find myself drawn to actresses over 40. They have a maturity, yet a young and playful side to them, that I find appealing and down-to-earth. Wendi McClendon-Covey. Melissa McCarthy. Octavia Spencer. Amy Poehler. Debra Messing.  These beautiful women are some of the most incredibly talented and funny women in movies and television today… and they are all fabulous and over 40! They have starred (separately, and sometimes together) in some of my favorite movies and TV shows. Wendi and Melissa co-starred in the all-female hit Bridesmaids, but I love Wendi as the sexpot […]

Saturday Night Dinner Party: Halloween

No Comments

I’m not a fan of scary movies. I barely made it through Scream, but since Halloween is on Monday, I thought it would be interesting to have some well-known “scary movie” actors and actresses over for a Saturday night Halloween dinner party. So who are my guests? First up is legendary scream queen Jamie Lee Curtis (Halloween). And then there is Neve Campbell, known for her role as Sidney Prescott in Scream. Also on the invite list is Robert Englund, a.k.a. Freddy Krueger (Nightmare on Elm Street) and Matthew Goode (Stoker). To add a little humor to the night would be Simon Pegg […]
