May 5, 2014 by Momstart Leave a Comment

Being on the set of one of the longest running soap operas is pretty darn amazing. ABC let 25 bloggers go on the set of General Hospital and one of the things we were able to preview was the fashion from the annual Nurses Ball. I always love looking at dresses.

To pick out fashion for each actor their character and personality is really contemplated a great deal. Then they buy the dresses or make them.

Isn’t this last one really classy?

Port Charles will once again hold the iconic Nurses Ball gala, a fundraiser for HIV and AIDS awareness and research. As the Nurses Ball 2014 begins, several popular Port Charles residents will be noticeably absent from the Red Carpet and stuck at home watching the festivities on TV. Old and new loves will percolate while others find themselves in awkward situations. Amidst all the romantic drama, the never-dull Nurses Ball audience will be entertained with fun performances and sexy surprises. The Nurses Ball episodes air May 8 through May 13. “General Hospital” airs MONDAY – FRIDAY (2:00- 3:00 p.m., ET) on The ABC Television Network.

Dresses Inspired By Oz The Great and Powerful: Movie Fashion #DisneyOzEvent

January 14, 2013 by Momstart 7 Comments

I’m excited to be walking the red carpet again and the buzz on the yellow brick road is that the gown color to go with is of course emerald green. As much as I adore the color and already have a suitable dress in that shade, I don’t want to wear the same color as everyone else. So I spent hours last night looking at dresses and what I would like to wear down the red carpet. (I have a feeling it will be a yellow brick road instead of the red carpet so it’s going to be extra special requiring an extra special dress).

Let’s first take a look at some scenes from the movie shall we?

When small-time magician Oscar Diggs (James Franco) pulls one flimflam too many, he finds himself hurled into the fantastical Land of Oz where he must somehow transform himself into the great wizard—and just maybe into a better man as well.

So as you can see all the colors are so bright and vivid. Any color would work as a fashionable choice, the styles of clothing are big and grand. I think Jackets are going to be big and dresses with colors and large shoulders, but accessories your shoulders do not wear shoulder pads. I love how the Wicked Witch’s dress has pointy shoulders out to the side. So as I was looking at dresses last night these are my finds. I made a whole pin board for it. Oz the Great and Powerful Dresses.

I think this dress is my favorite dress, it has the emerald green in it but also a few other colors making it very rich and colorful. Reminds me of the scene with the munchkins.

Now here are a few dresses with the larger shoulders or black; bad witch inspired.

I’m also getting a feeling that dresses that are flowing and drapery on the figure are going to big. I love all of these off the shoulder dresses.

I picked a few that remind me of a tornado too.
