Glee is TV’s new golden child and after their opening number and award sweep at the Emmy’s, you can’t really deny it. Not only is the cast of Glee outrageously talented, but they earn pretty high marks on the looks scale too. Mark Salling, who plays the nasty jock that finally showed his soft side, is definitely up in ranks. And all that sweet crooning is no joke – Mark graduated from the Los Angeles Music Academy. He will also be releasing his own album, Pipe Dreams, in October of this year, where he is the composer, performer and producer. Looks like quite the busy year for Mr. Salling! Cheers to you, my man! Enjoy the eye candy, readers

Awhile ago, before we purchased our home, I started compiling photos that served as decor inspiration. The picture to your left was one of the first ones that grabbed my attention, planting the little seed in my brain that grew into lust to have my very own pink room. Sure enough, after we found the house of our dreams, I began planning a replica based on that one little photo. I’m happy to say that after a few trips to Target, IKEA and Homegoods, that room is finally starting to take shape.

So I decided to skip Weekend Highlights this Monday and instead, bring to you what you are really interested in: what everyone was wearing at the Emmy’s last night! I love awards shows because not only do I get to see all my favorite actors in one spot, but I also get to lust over some beautiful gowns. And now, thanks to avidly watching Rachel Zoe on Bravo, I know how much blood, sweat and tears goes into selecting those gowns! So without further ado, here are my favorites and not so favorites from the night:
The ladies of Glee definitely knew it was their time to shine and boy, did they ever! Lea Michele looked absolutely gorgeous in her navy ruffled gown and the hilarious Jane Lynch could stop traffic in her plum, form-fitting one shoulder. Claire Danes looked like an Emmy herself in a sparkly, strapless sheath that perfectly complimented her platinum feathered locks. And finally, Anna Paquin doned on a fabulous Alexander McQueen number that was definitely designed with matadors in mind. Hot ones, that is.
It’s a shame because even though I am not a fan of the show, I think the ladies of Mad Men are absolutely stunning and they looked anything but on Emmy night. January Jones looked like her hair had gotten into a fight with a hair dryer and that dress in that color was just awful on her. Christina Hendricks wasn’t too far behind with her hairy frock in a dull and lifeless icy lavender. Poor funny ladies Tina Fey and Mindy Kaling also missed the fashion boat with their unappealing gothic ensembles. Better luck next time ladies!
Also, I’d just like to chime in that I adored the opening number (HURLEY! & Nina!) and that I was beyond disappointed that LOST did not win in one of their categories. I know there was a lot of controversy surrounding how they ended the last season, but you cannot deny the superb acting of all cast members and weight of the show in pop culture. I was not a happy camper. I was also not so pleased to see that Fringe wasn’t even nominated for any categories. What’s going on, people? I may be the only one, but I just do not see the appeal in Mad Men (yes, I have watched & couldn’t stomach any of the characters) and what the hell is Breaking Bad?
Feel free to chime in your own opinions of the night down below in the comments!

1. Chambord Vodka
Chambord is one of my favorite liqueurs to use for cocktails (& also one of my favorite bottles – so fancy & French!), so I was thrilled to hear that for the first time, Chambord was extending their brand to include Chambord flavored vodka. And top it off, it’s flippin’ PINK. PINK people. Do you know how many girlie drinks are in our future? Oh please, let Tropical Storm Earl sympathize with us South Floridians because I’d love to mix some up by our pool come Labor Day weekend!

It’s only fair that since I have featured the majority of the Vampire Diaries hotties, Matt Davis should have his time to shine on Hump Day as well. Matt is now well known for playing vampire hunting professor, Alaric Saltzman, on the show but before the vampire craze took the world by storm, he was in one of my favorite chick flicks, Legally Blonde. Yep, that’s right. He played the jerky ex-boyfriend! But jerk he is not. Matt often keeps in touch with his fans through his very active (and hysterical) Twitter account. Enjoy the man candy, ladies!
