Did Someone Say OSCARS?

Darlings, the night is FINALLY upon us! The night we've all been looking forward to for the last 365 days. The reason we've sat through movies with a bipolar Bradley Cooper, angry French revolutionists and Iranian hostages. It's a night full of surprises, glitz and glamour. Some of these take place at the actual Kodak Theater, but I'm referring to the famous Academy Awards Red Carpet.

I've had an Oscar party every year for the last 5 years. Now that I'm in college, I'm going to uphold that tradition, but with a twist. I'm still getting some of my girlfriends together to watch the Red Carpet and the awards show in my room, dressed to the nine's, of course. Here are 5 things I'm doing this Sunday:

Making red velvet carpet cupcakes and brown butter popcorn

Crafting a cheese plate from Whole Food's finest selection

Fixing my hair and donning a dress (probably my junior year prom dress seen here)

Printing out Oscar ballots so my guests can vote on their top film picks! (For my top picks in the major categories, see below)

Avidly critiquing and watching the red carpet and awards ceremony!

It's time to dim the lights and throw on a glamour gown! Dearies, it's Oscar time!
