Such an extravaganza & I could not decide what to wear.

My fabulously talented artist friend & kindred spirit CHRIS KLINGLER has awarded me the Art Prize & Award.This award has arisen from the many visits that I dedicate to the Blogs which nourish me & enrich me with creativity. In them I see dedication, creativity, care, comradeship, but mainly ART. I want to share this award with all those Bloggers that entertain me. Many of those Bloggers have already been tagged with this award, so I will leave the rest of the work to all the Bloggers that visit other Blogs & are nourished by them.
The rules of passing on this award are as follows:
Post award in your own Blog.
Post who gave it to you indicating it's origin & a link to the site.
I'm passing the Art Prize & Award forward to my fantastically talented artist friend & soul sister BECKY FEDERICO who completely deserves this award.
ENJOY THE 80th ACADEMY AWARDS February 24th 5PM PT on ABC...

It's all about the bustle boudoir chair, furnished in the style of Louis XVI, by Frederick Litchfield.

Hi Lyndy,
ReplyDeleteHoped you enjoyed watching the Oscars. My favorite part was when "Once" won Best Song. I thought they did a wonderful job performing the song.
Take care! Jennifer
Hi Becky, WOW! Those are beautiful gowns. The quality of dressmaking for which Charles Frederick Worth & the House of Worth were renowned among society women worldwide by the last quarter of the nineteenth century is SPECTACULAR!
ReplyDeleteOMG, we almost wore the same gown, LOL!

Hi Jennifer, I also loved the singing/songwriting duo Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova, who were the winners of the 'Best Original Song' Oscar for 'Falling Slowly' from the critically acclaimed independent Irish musical film, 'Once', at the 80th Academy Awards.
ReplyDeleteDidn't you just love that beat up & hole ridden guitar. That fantastic guitar plays (pun intended) a leading role in the movie 'Once'.
Hollywood HUgs & Air Kisses, Lyndy
Great post, Lyndy....Glad to hear "Once" won an award, and Becky too of course. Well deserved on both counts!
