Hello Monday!

Mellow Yellow
Zendaya

Hello Monday! Yesterday the Oscars happened, with the first red carpet at an awards show since the Pandemic. 

While I am not going to critique the show, I will state that I loved Union Station as the setting for it. Lots of ambiance and history that location has and it served as a great backdrop to the to do. Now back to our regularly scheduled program, the return of the red carpet.

It was great seeing stars trotting out their Sunday best and striking a pose for photographers again. While there was a lot of great Oscar fashion I am kicking off the week with my favorite, which you must have guessed by now since there is a photo of it.

That's correct Minions it's Zendaya in Valentino, she looks amazing and yellow is obviously one color that really works on her.

Hello Monday indeed...

Oscar Sunday

In a year that was different to say the least, expect nothing less from this year's Academy Awards telecast. From what I understand under the guidance of Steven Soderbergh the to do is going to play out like, well, a movie. 

Hey, I am tuning in mainly to see what they do with the broadcast, I've only seen one of the nominated films (Mank) - I think it's smart to make the show itself the thing, rather than the actual awards.

Below is a list of the nominees so you, and I, can play along. 

Smiles everyone, smiles and Happy Oscar Sunday!

Monday Motivation


Always trust your instincts, even your more basic ones. "Yes" that is today's Monday Motivation post the Oscars. Did you all watch them? I did, the show as per usual was hit and miss, but when it hit, oh boy did it!

The Oscars are actually what got me thinking about trusting ones instincts, really they honestly did, cross my heart. How so you may wonder? Well I listened to my gut, it kept saying from the time Nominations were announced to the day of the Ceremony that Parasite was going to take home Best Picture. All my industry friends poo pooed the notion saying it would for sure take home Best Foreign Language Film but not the main prize. Well I hate to say it, but "I told you so!"

So after that it got me thinking about how my instincts and with everything going on at present how they have served me. Quite spectacularly I must say, in fact I just did.

They have been so dead on, for better, never worse, even if they say the outcome of something won't be necessarily what I would like, the understanding of it via my amazing intuition makes it all good.

I hereby decree that you get in touch with that inner voice, that is your Monday Motivation.

Listen closely...

Monday Motivation

Let's Get Unconscious, Honey-
Madonna & Lady Gaga
"There's got to be a morning after, If we can hold on through the night, We have a chance to find the sunshine, Let's keep on looking for the light" - Morning After, Maureen McGovern 

"Yes" peeps it's the morning after The Oscars - who saw Olivia Colman winning over Glenn Close. No one! However Social Media is buzzing at present about this image of Lady Gaga with her Oscar for Best Original Song and Mama Madonna holding them both.

Honestly, can I be frank? I have never felt there was any "rivalry" ever between the two. They trotted it out when they each had something to promote and then it went away post haste

Let's get real when Gaga did Born This Way a hybrid note for note of Express Yourself and Vogue she had to have had permission to do it. Otherwise Madonna could have sued and won. These two are partners in crime make no mistake about it.

Oh, yeah, what's today's Monday Motivation? Cheers to women supporting each other. Hey we should all support each other as human beings. Go out and be the best version of you that you can possibly be. Even if you actually suck as a human being, try to suck less today.
